McFarlane’s Walking Dead Series 5 comic figure line is AWESOME. It combines past and present with good and evil and some character deaths as the cherry on top. Keep checking McFarlane to see when and where you can buy them. In the meantime, check out the Glenn, Shane, Negan, and Lydia figures below and tell us YOUR thoughts in the comments!
GLENN
One of the original survivors from Atlanta, Glenn was famous for putting himself in danger for the necessity of his group. Whether this was running for supplies, or diving in head first into a fight, he was always there to keep those he loved safe. This aspect made him one of Rick’s closest and most dependable friends. However, no one is truly safe in this harsh world…
NEGAN
Rick Grimes keeps his promises, and in an attempt to turn over a new leaf of not killing, Negan remains imprisoned for his crimes against Alexandria. That doesn’t stop wise cracking Negan from trying to talk his way out from behind those prison bars. However to no avail has his attempts to earn Rick’s trust earned him his freedom. But in a world filled with constant dangers, sometimes you have to fight fire with fire, and maybe one day Rick will free Negan as he is the lesser of two evils.
SHANE
Former Sheriff Deputy along with Rick Grimes, Shane was responsible for keeping Lori and Carl Grimes safe when the outbreak occurred. When it became apparent Atlanta was lost to the Walkers, Shane took the two and settled on the outskirts of the city joining up with Dale and his band. As an authority figure he became the de-facto leader of the group. Shane acted on his long time feelings for Lori, as they both assumed Rick was probably dead.
However when Rick showed up, Lori confessed it was a moment of weakness and a mistake. His obsession with Lori greatly impacted his emotional state and caused him to pit himself against his former friend. Eventually the tension grew too high between the two, and Shane attempted to kill Rick. Before Shane could act, he was shot and killed by Carl Grimes trying to protect his father. After Rick later learns everyone is infected he returns to Shane’s grave to find him reanimated. He shoots him in the head thus ending his second life.
LYDIA
Daughter of Alpha, the mysterious leader of the Whisperers, Lydia was cloaked in zombie skin sent out with her companions to dispatch Jesus’ group under the cover of average Walkers. However at the death of her companion Joshua she was quickly found out to not be your average undead corpse when she shouted his name. Jesus defending himself from her, wounds her.
Shocked by the whole thing Lydia begs for her life and is taken to Hilltop. There she divulges about her group who hide among the Walkers, living more like animals than actual humans. Developing a strong emotional and physical relationship with Carl Grimes she turns away from her mother and her group wanting to live a human life and not that of a Whisperer. Unfortunately this puts her right in the cross-hairs of those she turned against, and those whom her mother has hurt.
Which ones are your favorites? Tell us in the comments below!
i need them.
all of them.
RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!
SKYBOUND NEED TO HOOK ME UP!!!!! (Please)
They all look really cool
But why does Negan have Lucille and instead of Shane it should have been a girl maybe someone like Magna
Why not Shane? Magna has been a part of the story longer than Shane was alive, yet he had more story to his character. If they were to him, it should be with Maggie (Preferably, the New Beginning Maggie in red flannel, plus baby Hershel).
why is glenn there lol
Is there really no Maggie comic figure yet but there’s already a Lydia one, or did I miss something? 🙁
So true!
Seriously, where is Maggie? They need to start making more figures in each series. This is our first Shane (Cool), 2nd Glenn (Finally, way better than Riot Glenn), 2nd Negan (Okay), but really… Lydia before Maggie, Aaron, Rosita, Eugene, even people from way back when; like Lori, Hershel, and Dale.
Dale with a removable (and eatable) leg on a spit
My order for the set of 4 is ‘in the warehouse being fulfilled’. Got the double pack of Negan & Glenn recently and disappointed not to be able to pose him on his knees. The new figures released are quite odd. What is like to see us a couple of ‘Dead Deluxe Packs’. The Ezekeil figure should have come with his Kingom throne and with Shiva. A twin pack with Lydia and current Carl. An Alpha & Beta twin pack. Rosita and Eugene with changable head from Mullet to long. Shane should have come as twin pack with Lori. New Andrea with cowboy hat and poncho on horseback. A deluxe pack with Magna, Yukio and their pals. Then move on to Heath, Aaron etc.
I recall a few years back now at one of the comic cons that zombies like the little green army men when I was little were going to be released. Anything happen there? I want a pack of a thousand biters
I forgot to say I agree with those above me in wanting a Maggie figure. There was never a Tyresse either. Or Axel – you would be avtually be able to ‘feel him’.
On the new figures Shane’s face looks great very true to Tony Moore.
How many comic figures are there ?!
This is my first time seeing them bout to start buying a pack every other week how much are they an in what order should I buy them
Yes please!!!!! It’s the tiny severed heads. Well done creators!!!! Glenn looks great.
