Do you think the walking dead toys will sell?
 
I hope they do

omega145 11-16-2011 01:46 PM

Im sure they will as the show is popular. They were sold out when they were first released at my local TRU but I havent been back to see if they are pegwarming or not.
A LCS by me had a few four pack sets and those are all gone as well.
Do you have any other input since you made the thread?

proteus 11-16-2011 01:57 PM

Im not sure..im no expert i think the zombies will sell,but the human characters...just seem a bit meh,i cant really see people going wild for em,i think impulse buying will account for a lot of em,but really they aint nothing special are they??

Fortune 11-16-2011 01:59 PM

The comic is popular and so is the show. They were sold out for awhile so I think they will sell. Im not a huge fan of the scale but I will get some. Oddly I mostly want the humans.

I think you hit the nail on the head. How many Rick Grimes or Michonne can you have, but on the other hand how many zombies? Countless!

They were really pegwarming at my TRU so I just figured that there was no intrest in the line and I wanted to see other people's thoughts on it. I just hope it doesn't end up like lost ,that didn't even last 3 waves

Mrbrains 11-16-2011 02:31 PM

And what zombies do you guys think will be in series 2?,im hoping for bicycle girl and bloated/well zombie

MegsTriggerMan 11-16-2011 02:52 PM

I think theres plenty of interest in the line ... just not an interest in dropping 19.99 a figure ...

Fortune 11-16-2011 03:03 PM

I think these would sell waaaaaay better if they were 3.75 scale :/

yup, maybe as a 2 pack even with a pack in zombie with every survivor. the only figure i'd want from the line as is is glenn if it ever makes it passed the first wave.

Shin Densetsu 11-16-2011 04:03 PM

I think they will, and they look cool too. Surprised at the amount of articulation.

Coming from mcfarlane the articulation is pretty nice

Jason Abbadon 11-16-2011 04:50 PM

THese will be gathering dust at Toys R Us alongside the Resivor Dogs figs, Robot Chicken Figs and Beatles Yellow Submarine figs.

Seriousy, so they get baked before deciding on this stuff?!?

CLASSIFIED 11-16-2011 04:52 PM

I don't think they will sell.

Most fans of the show are thieves IMO, so people will likely steal them.

In My Opinion

D00MTR0N 11-16-2011 07:04 PM

I think they will at first but not too long.

brianregan09 11-16-2011 07:06 PM

I think there awesome but why they didn't do them at 4 inch is crazy ? I mean the only other 5 inch are the Halo ones done by the same company why did do them at this bastard scale that no one wants :(

I'm no fan of the show, but if they were in scale with my other 3.75" figures I would buy the shit out of them. The Zombie ones I mean.

D00MTR0N 11-16-2011 07:15 PM

if they were in scale they would go great with the new zombie vipers coming out.

LXL_Guy 11-16-2011 10:06 PM

One thing that keeps many away is price of the figures. Besides that I figure only die hard fans will end up picking them. With that in mind, sides will probably be chosen as some might just get comic versions, TV versions, or possibly both. Whatever the case, they'll eventually sell like any other McFarlane figure or clearance out.

Tiberius 11-16-2011 10:08 PM

I have no interest in the comic versions of the figures, however I know my brother would. I really enjoy the characters in the TV show so when ever I see a Rick Grimes and Shane TV series figures, THEY MINE.

I'm sorry, but, what? That's like saying people who wear hats mostly have mustaches. Please keep your blanket statements to yourself as that is insulting to a lot of members of this forum.
