I agree, good call on leaving the AMC off there. Everyone who's familiar with the series cares more about the name of the character...not the channel she appears on. Great phone pics too. She looks awesome in them...glad to hear you decided to reorder her.

Thanks. She's definitely not the same quality as Whisper, but still quite nice. My only quibble is the lack of grime about the right wrist. It looks too obvious that the hand was painted separately. Not sure if I'll try getting and grime it myself. It would be hard to match.

My Maggie (with the snapped off right hand) has what appears to be a darker shade of pink compared to the arm, and while the hand is covered in blood splats, the arm contains zero blood splats. Minor details ;D

I decided to buy the 10" McFarlane figures. i think the likeness is better on those. Plus, they are 1/10th the price.

Yeah- those Mcfarlanes are nice- very detailed, and really captures the likeness of the characters. I wish the Gentle Giant Daryl pose was as good as the Mcfarlane.

Yeah, they look decent. I decided to go with them because the McFarlane michonne actually looks like the actress. They are also easier to display and you can't beat the price. I just hope they start making more. Only Rick, Michonne and daryl are out. I think Glen is next.

Maggie 1/4 - Gentle Giant

Arrived with the hand snapped off. I managed to repair it. The statue looks great.
Different portrait to the prototype, but i like it all the same. Why did GG alter the portrait?

10/10

They sure do (look like a pair of bad..)
I only have 3 statues on pre order, and none carry guns, which will make a change ;D

Wish I had a better camera and lighting, but I wanted share this. Been looking forward to pairing these beauties up.

Next up, pairing Derby with Fireball. Hopefully we get the preorder on her soon.
