Oh ok cool and can we possibly get a 2nd version of Daryl for series 4 and a Rick vs Shane 2 pack or do you guys already have a planned line up for series 4?

Yes, series 4 is already planned out - but that doesn't mean it won't change . We haven't started sculpting on series 4 yet - so you never know......

If the line up does change I know a lot of us fans would LOVE a 2nd Daryl and can we get a little hint at who is in the lineup unless it is spolierific?

Would you guys ever consider doing Box sets (not including the b&w sets)like the Halo line of memorable scenes like the barn scenes with like a zombie sophia and a rick etc?

Well not necessarily box sets but more like 3 or 4 packs

We would if there was enough interest in them.....

Any word on when series 4 will hit?

Any word on when series 4 will hit?

Not at the moment. Most likely next October. We're still working out the line-up as well.
But this could all change based on sales and demand - could go either way.

Is there not enough interest?

 

[spawnshop]

Is there not enough interest?

Well, so far there seems to be interest in the 3 packs. But if they sold through quickly, i'm sure there would be interest in additional packs.

If you guys plan on going beyond B&W 3 packs, i have a TON of ideas!
