these continue to look like hot dookie, plus they are just re-releases, I never knew a ton about these figures back when but that's all they seem to be, if I;m incorrect, please do correct me, but I feel like the biggest factor that is turning people off is the scale, nobody is really looking for a 5'' scale figure, If they did something new at Mcfarlandini's more used scale (7'') people probably would be a bit more intigued.

it's interesting that for the re-releases they aren't trying the photo printing faces, i think that maybe could have made them more appealing for those who collect the originals? i don't get straight up re-releases when the originals aren't really worth much anyways
Yeah, the scale pretty much guarantees that I'd have zero interest in these, not to mention the fact that I barely see any likeness to the actor in the character faces.
Why does Todd make these 5 inches? I mean get into some more details and make them maybe 7 or 9 inches...

Well, the packaging is new and Michonne looks to be missing her poncho, so...kinda new. ?
