New Toy Category For The House That Spawn Built...

Known as a game-changer for its realistic action figures, including those based on The Walking Dead, McFarlane Toys is adding a new licensed category to the company’s portfolio. Presenting a new AMC-licensed line of The Walking Dead Building Toys. The sets are designed to allow fans to recreate your favorite moments from the hit series with realistic sculptures, light-up features, iconic environments and dozens of fan-favorite characters and walkers.

“Twenty years ago I walked into the action figure aisle, saw an artistic void, and asked, can these toys look cooler? The answer was yes, they could, and I’ve survived twenty years next to the big boys creating those artistic toys,” said McFarlane. “Now I’m walking into another aisle with that same question, and the answer is still yes!”

Announced playsets (MSRP $9.99-64.99) include Daryl Dixon with his chopper, The Governor’s cave (with light-up walker head aquariums) and the Prison Tower with gate. Expand your building block apocalypse with accessory packs and figures (MSRP $2.99) such as Daryl Dixon, Michonne, The Governor, Carl Grimes, Riot Gear Walker, Michonne’s Pet Walker and Herd Walkers.

“Will these be the best building sets out there? I’ll leave it up to the consumer to decide,” said McFarlane. “But, will it look cooler? Yes. Will it be more detailed? Absolutely. Will it be more realistic? I guarantee it!”

McFarlane Toys’ The Walking Dead building sets and figures will be available this Fall at exclusively at Toys"R"Us stores nationwide.
