The Vintage Collection '10-'13 / Re: SDCC 2012

Thanks for posting the Q&A, the guys seem genuinely nice but like they are stuck between a rock and a hard place trying to answer questions - they very rarely can come out and give full answers. It's true that they have to balance what they want with what is economically feasible but they (hasbro) deside to make minimally articulated large figures that no one wants.

I still think after watching the marathon last weekend the reason they stayed so long on the Farm was due to the changes they made, keeping shane around when he died earlier in the comics and by having Sophia getting lost and ending up a walker, she's still alive in the comics as well as Dale.

Not sure where you are in the comic series, but Dale died a while ago.  He was killed in the "Hunters" storyline...

Sad news about G, but I knew they were going to get rid of someone big.  Kirkman has said this is "Rick's story," so you know it isn't him.  Andrea's too interesting/useful and Michonne is too big a fan favorite.  That doesn't leave them with too many other big names, so G was a pretty likely choice.  I'm always a little bummed when a good character dies in WD, but it is a Zombie story and they have to keep it high stakes to keep it interesting.

well I've pretty much read through all the trade paperbacks at B&N since I'm outta work so I just read them while I'm there; I must have missed where Dale got killed. So eventhough the comic and tv series are going in slightly different directions, it still follows the same overall path. I'm looking forward to season 3 to see how they portray all the brutality on the show that's in the comics.

yeah I had to console a few 'Gleggie - Glen-Maggie' fans about that reminding them the tv show is so far behind the comics, they could go another 2 -3 years/seasons before reaching the same point as the 100th issue. I still think after watching the marathon last weekend the reason they stayed so long on the Farm was due to the changes they made, keeping shane around when he died earlier in the comics and by having Sophia getting lost and ending up a walker, she's still alive in the comics as well as Dale. I also think they felt a need to balance the dysfunctional rick-lori-shane triangle (since shane was still around) by developing the Maggie-glenn story; plus throw in Daryl who isn't even IN the comics at all and THREE episodes dealing with Randal before the zombie attack on the farm.

read a spoiler review of the big 100th issues of the walking dead comic, which is causing quite a stir amongst twd fans regarding who gets killed off...Glenn...gets their brains bashed in.

Thanks for posting this review, it's definitely a great set, not something I particularly NEED but I'm glad they made it for those who want it. I def want a Sandy, Bespin Leia and possibly electro-vader - I got the first potj version many moons ago. I get the carbonite jar jar is a great nod to the fans, plus the new SA jar jar is a great figure in itself.

Day two of the walking marathon on AMC starts at 11:30 this morning. I really enjoyed seeing all of season 1 since I hadn't really watched it all the way through before.

Thanks for the tip on this.  I tried to get my TiVo hooked up in time to record it, but I think I need a cable card for DirecTV.  Argh.  If anyone sees any other WD marathons on the horizon, please let me know.  Next time I will be prepared!

No problem, hopefully they'll at least do another season 2 marathon in Oct. before the new season starts. I think they did this one because of SDCC next weekend where the cast and creator and producers will be there to promote it.

Never thought of calling it "my zombie" but I may start now.

I'd be careful about that if I were you.  Though the idea of it wandering around mindlessly with the sole purpose of it finding one thing rings true - I don't know that you would want to compare "your zombie" to something that walks around limp with its head drooping to the side all of the time  ;)

"Dead man walking" has new meaning now lol

oh the mist was on syfy last weekend and I caught different parts of it several times, enough to see all the WD cast members.

Lots of figs from Star Wars aka ep4 ANH that I'd like:
1 - Uncle Owen
2 - Aunt Beru
3 - Adm Motti
4 - SA Princess Leia
5 - SA C-3P0
6 - Definitive Super Duper Articulated Tatooine Luke
7 - Rebel Leader Jan Dedonna (sp)
8 - Celebration Princess Leia
9 - Capt. Tagge
10 - Head varient of Rebel Fleet Trooper - now that they've made a great one, re-use it with different heads

I'm not really into collecting 'back ground' characters, but if they spoke and had an impact on the story, then I'd like to have them.

I don't have the link but the SDCC exclusive Michone has been revealed and man that's an awesome figure. Comes with bloody katana, drill and a couple other 'tools of her trade'.

That's all the same gear the previous two versions have come with, actually.

BUT SHE HAS A NEW CLOAK!!!  ;D

I'm definitely down for one of these, guess I will have to pre-order someplace online. Love the new Adlard artwork.

My bad heh heh, this is the first I've heard of her getting a figure done  ;)
