@spawnshop

Personaly I really appreciate that you still hang around here and keep sharing news with the remaining collectors. But you have to agree that since the revealing of canceling the TV5" line, this particular board is close to dead.

The disapoitment of not being at SDCC and now this tiny display at NYCC desn't help either. Also there is absolutly nothing new in that glasscube, that hasnt been revealed before in any way. Where are the dioramas, the prototypes, the REAL new stuff and big surprises no one expected ? what happened to TWD and GOT building system ?
Do be honest, my smallest shelf at home is bigger than that cube.

IMO, MF has been pushed from the throne long ago from NECA and passed through by loads of smaller companies.
Very sad

Awesome man, awesome.

This is exactly would I meant above. That alternate beaten up head is something no one xpected and should have been shown at the big CC,s already.
Makes me wonder what extra there might come with Aaron

That Rick has blown up the various TWD figure groups' discussions. It is EVERYTHING. All of the excitement from the fans is fun to be a part of. And the "Series 10" in the upper right has people creaming their jeans in hopes of more.

Got the new Daryl on bike. HE'S BEAUTIFUL.

@spawnshop - 5" must come back. You guys do it so BEAUTIFULLY.

 

[Dyson]

If you guys can manage to squeeze out a couple more. A 5" TV Negan is a must. Jesus and Dwight are bonuses.

Picked up the 7" Daryl and 5" Daryl with the Frankenbike. Great likenesses on both Daryls.

 

[Real Scooby]

If there is/are still any McF-people visiting the boards and/or listening to us, here is an awesome idea for a possible 5" TV Dlx Box Set.

Based on the currently only preview images of Ezekiel, I think this would be a no-brainer.
Ezekiel leaning on his "throne" with Shiva. Basicly I am not looking for statues, but in this case I wouldn't mind Ezekiel being frozen in this particular pose. The tiger could come with a changeable head, one calm and one roaring.

The newest addition to my 5" crew. So much more to be done with 5"!!!

 

[Real Scooby]

nice one whats your recipe ?

 

[kassle]

Oh, gosh. She's sort of a hodgepodge. Like I think its 4 diff figures? Def Maggie w the arms and the Andrea head. I'd have to look at her closely to remember what I did for the other parts. But a lot of it is just sculpting over (my friend is epically good at sculpting clothing hair & led that charge) various base parts. So if you have a figure you want to create I just pick one of the mosre neutral bodies (or sand/shave down) and sculpt over. The bodies take additional sculpt really nicely!

 

[shanerd]

Ezekiel & Shiva are desperately needed. I don't even care if it's a goddamn Color Top. I need these two on display!!

@spawnshop I've not posted here in a while but just wondering when the Aaron 5" figure looks likely to be released and whether we can expect any more 5" exclusives in the new year! Cheers

 

[Dallan]

I have a question, Spawnshop. I'm not sure if you can answer this, but I figure 'what do I have to lose?' So far, the Abraham Color Tops figure has interested me the most out of all the rest, with Travis being second, and the reason for that is that he has more articulation (in my opinion anyway) than the rest, but he's still very much so a statue, not an action figure. My question is...will we see articulation in future Color Tops figures that is near identical to recent figures in the 5-inch line (i.e. that incredibly leg/hip articulation)? And also, will we see more than one or two accessories come with "figures" in the future, because that is another thing I miss from the 5-inch line that I think would make the Color Tops more resemble "action figures".

The Walgreens' Exclusive Constable Rick is SUCH A HIT!! Everyone seems to love it!

[Dyson]

Has there been any indication as what the mystery figure is in the Megabox?

I was thinking that, but when they bring him out they need to include

Spoiler

a kneeling glenn or Abe with their heads a bit smushed in

Are you getting the glenn figure?

I had to rearrange my shelf cos I couldn't fit glenn on, so when they bring out more 10" figures I'm gonna have to rethink the display. I'd really like a carol next

Ps. the S6 truck zombies out soon.. Can't wait.. I've made a space for it
