I really wish the new series would hurry up and come out. The money is pretty much burning a hole in my pocket.


Also, has Clementine been confirmed as a black friday exclusive yet?

I've seen the pre-series 6 on the shelves - picked up Michonne with pet heads and tank, and the RV zombie at Walgreens about 2 weeks ago.
Regular series 6 should be hitting very soon.

No, Clem hasn't been confirmed for any specific release yet.

$$$ is seriously burning a hole in my pocket waiting for this wave to be released. Any particular reason for the delay in getting these out??

 

[spawnshop]

Quality Control i think. First couple samples of some figures we saw had a lot of issues

Thanks for the quick reply, spawnshop! I figured that might be the issue. It sucks having to wait longer for this AWESOME looking series but I'd rather wait an extra month or even two than end up with figures that have some QC issues. Thanks again, sir!!

kay this is gonna be far fetched but is there any chance of color negan getting rereleased around the time of black friday, cus im really desperate for the figure but dont feel like spending 70 dollars on him, and speaking of black friday has it pretty much been comfirmed clem wont be the exclusive

Unless Skybound has held some back from selling (which I doubt any company would do...lol), I don't think so. He seems to be sold out online, and I haven't heard of them putting in a reorder for another run. Just keep a watch on the bay - seems like $35-$40 is more like the going price.

Spawnshop do you know when the series 6 figures hi def pics will be put up on the spawnshop website?

for the b/w one maybe but the colored one is very hard to find for less than 50, and mcfarlane really should consider a sec0nd production on negan considering the bid wars and outrageous price people are paying for him, or maybe an open jacket one in a future wave, but hopefully not modern negan

 

[spawnshop]

We (McFarlane) don't sell the Negan, Jesus, or Ezekiel exclusive figures. It's not up to us to make or sell them. (We aren't allowed to sell them at retail)
It's a Skybound product and they order them from us to sell. It's their product and they sell and distribute it (they pay for all production).
They may not even be aware of the secondary market for the figure, or have not gotten enough orders to justify them producing another run.
You should contact Skybound directly and ask if they plan on re-releasing them or if they are completely sold out.

But again, this is the fun/downfall of collecting. Sometimes you win and pick up the figures right away, sometimes not and you lose out and have to pick it up later at a higher price. (Supply and demand).
Good luck!

Here's a new listing starting at only $25:

okay serious time im so excited for a new series! i really want a new comic carl with like five different heads, normal with hat, without hat, bandaged head, emo hair head, and face hole head, and for other characters definietly Michonne, seriously the old one is so hard to find and ugly as hell, and ive already voiced my opinion about hopefully an open jacket negan with specencer cutting knife maybe heath, possibly eugene and rosita

ABRAHAM FORD!!!!!!! Oh man I can't wait for the reveal of the rest of the wave
