Totally agree. I wish they were a little bit less too......since we don't sell them, I can't even get a discount!

Just placed my order for Bloody Clementine exclusive

If you would have read the entire email you would have saw that there's free shipping for black friday.


Either way I'm still on the fence about getting her right away. Negan stayed in stock for a pretty long while after black friday so I'm sure Clem will too. I really don't want to spend $25 of my black friday budget on an action figure when I could get 5 blurays for that same price.

Hello! I'm new here, I've been a lurker here for a little bit, and I've collected Walking Dead figures for a while. Just wanted to post pictures of my new Rick Grimes.

Spoiler

Over all I think he's really well sculpted, but his paint work is.. pretty sloppy in some places. I just got this guy from a Gamestop about an hour ago.
Another minor complaint I have is that the scale seems to be a little bit off. He's a little bit too short when he stands next to Daryl in my opinion. I'll be picking up the rest of series 6 very soon. Sorry for the low quality pictures by the way.

Spoiler

Lastly here are some shots of my collection thus far!

can you tell me if ricks revolver is the same as the other ricks

 

[NoodleChow]

Hmmm yeah, thought Rick looked kinda short in package but at the same time the new Daryl is pretty tall overall. Thanks for the pics!

Unfortunately the only one I can compare it to is the Comic series 3 Rick's revolver. I don't have the others yet.
TV version is on the right. It has much brighter silver paint, and a red handle instead of brown.
The sculpt is the exact same.

I agree with you. It should extend further down.

Another odd thing I just noticed, he seems to have an indentation on his belt.
It looks like something is supposed to peg in, like an additional pouch or a holster or something, but I didn't get anything else.
Maybe mine is defective and something was supposed to be glued in?

My gamestop said they only got Rick in. Weird.

 

[spawnshop]

That's odd - he's missing his little double pouch. Maybe it fell off? Did you check the package?

Saw the whole wave minus the Gov at Gamestop and only picked up Rick and Abraham. I'll try my luck with Carol and Hershel on friday.

Wish Rick had longer legs and a better paintjob and that Abraham had ankle movement but overall pretty happy with them. I'll prolly futz around with the paint later.
