@spawnshop.....well......damn. that explains it

 

[kassle]

I love everything about that photo. Still love the show, but DAMN if that early cast wasn't the best IMO. All the characters were so well drawn. Love it!

 

[spawnshop]

My Clementines came in too! (A little too late for Walker Stalker con though....)

Lucky^^^

My build a set wish list

Woodbury truck tire wall/front gate

Terminus building with front gate

Hershel's Barn massacre scene (barn, with 6 walkers and Shane and other figures.

Tv series figures

Morgan (with that badass mask he wore in 501 as a swappable head)
Season 5 Rick with Jacket and long hair and beard (maybe a little bit taller than the series 6 one)
Dale (not gonna happen but let a dude dream)
Lori ( to have a complete Grimes fam)
18 miles out Shane (with the brown tee shirt and tan cargo pants)
Eugene
Sasha
Bob
Beth
This is really stretching it but maybe a Season 1 Merle
Tara
Rosita
Father Gabriel

Your list is all kinds of awesome. I'd be a very happy camper if they all made it to production, particularly Beth.

I'm crossing my fingers that she gets slipped into Wave 7 as a surprise.

Dale for Series 8 I hear?!?!? AWW YISSSSS

 

[ccs]

I can't believe we're actually getting Dale. I guess anything is possible at this point lol

Can't wait for the fan vote either. I'm thinking that'll be our only chance at getting another Shane.

 

[mikeydajune]

AHHH right when i gave up hope.. we get the news we are getting a Dale!!! hopefully this means the fans have mcfarlanes ear (due to spawnshop listening to us) Maybe we will get an upgraded Shane and a Tdog and Lori!!

 

[kassle]

AWESOME DAY FOR NEWS!

1. Series 8 - Dale! Woot! Great news. Love this and hope it paves the way for Shane and Lori. I bet he's gonna look AWESOME.

2. Series 8 - Rosita! Neat addition. I'm...skeptical we'll get two females in a series, so I will say I'm bummed we didn't get Beth over Rosita. But that aside, it's nice having new characters and I really respect that McF Toys produces a female every wave. And the scan for Rosita looks like she's gonna turn out damn cool.

3. Variant Rick - YAY! I'm not a huge Rick-tard, but have had trouble finding one at retail that has good face paint apps. So I like that I don;t have to stress about that too much and will have an opportunity in the future. Hoping his face turns out a little better this round.

4. Those accessories - I'm unclear about that accessories pic on McF's FB wall...if they were for a new figure or previous figures. But if they are for a new figure, I'm guessing they walkie talkie points to Morgan. A wave with Dale, Rosita AND Morgan? 3 all new characters? YES!!!!!

5. Still crossing my fingers McF has heard out the outcries for Beth (saw bunches of em on the wall posts on FB) and is slipping her in somewhere. I want all my main credits characters represented

McF is knocking it out of the park with this series. Whatever holes one may wish were filled (including the wants I am always yammering on about) are miniscule compared to how comprehensive this line is. It really makes the line a lot of fun to collect and display...and is the reason it is the ONLY action figure line I collect.

1. We're still tweaking the sculkpt, but he's looking awesome so far! Would be cool to do more "flashback" characters....

2. This is news to me......where'd you hear this?

3. This one's pretty cool.

4. You guys will be VERY happy for this announcement.

5. Me too. I'm pushing, but our sales department is very skeptical on releasing female figures (that aren't Michonne....) Please keep begging on FB, IG, etc. The more you guys scream for characters, the better chance they get made.

 

[spawnshop]

Sorry to disappoint, but this is TRUE:

It's actually a fan-made sculpt.

 

[Themadpatter]

Is Rosita planned at all?
Are you pushing for her?
I'm dying for one, haha.
