[spoink117]

@smutoys

Sorry I forgot about this long reply my birthday is july 26th when's yours??

[smutoys]

@spoink117: Oh cool, we're both in July, mines July 14.

[TheJackoman44]

@smutoys

Just sounds like there is a decapitated zombie in real life.

[smutoys]

@TheJackoman44: Hehe.

[TheJackoman44]

Close your eyes and listen to the video...

[smutoys]

@TheJackoman44: Hehe that a good or bad thing?

[spoink117]

@smutoys

Gonna get the 2 zombies or 1 zombie for my Birthday

[smutoys]

@spoink117: Awesome, when's your birthday?

[ianrivas2011]

tengo 15 años y lo quiero... mi viejo me dijo que es para pendejitos U.U

[smutoys]

@ianrivas2011: Sorry, I don't understand.

[sithlord901]

@smutoys he says he 15 years old and his dad says the toys are for little kids im dominican

[smutoys]

@sithlord901: Thanks.

Haha not all toys are for little kids. ;-)

[joeyvader]

@sithlord901  I'm 46 and my house looks like a toy store...

[smutoys]

@joeyvader: Right on!

[aliensharkboy]

Fucking awesome review! you got through it quick and showed everything we wanted to see about the figure, one of the better reviewers I'd say. subscribing!

[smutoys]

@aliensharkboy: Thanks so much, glad you liked it!

[aliensharkboy]

@smutoys Hey do you think you'll be reviewing the next series of walking dead figures? they've made 4 from the comics and in february their gonna release some from the actual TV series, series version of Rick, 2 different zombies and Daryl Dixon... I just bought Michonne, really cant wait to get hold of the others!

[smutoys]

@aliensharkboy: I still need to get Michonne and the color Rick Grimes. But for sure, as soon as the TV figures hit, I'll definitely be getting and reviewing them.

[aliensharkboy]

@smutoys Awesome dude! can't wait!

[smutoys]

@aliensharkboy: Here's hoping they hit stores earlier than the slated release.

[Cristianhobo]

Too expensive

[CommanderCalins1]

cool i watch The Walking dead new season its so cool

[smutoys]

@CommanderCalins1: Yep, it's awesome!

[jusuan1]

Can you post a review of the new walkers? The walker in the suit that looks like Jim Carrey to me and the biter? I really want to see a video of those two in action showing their spring loaded bite and wind-up walking ability, please. =]

[smutoys]

@jusuan1: Definitely, when I find them.

[smutoys]

@jusuan1: I'm pretty iffy about those action features though. :-\

[rodster6]

Such a shame they are not to scale with other horror figures otherwise I would have collected them.

[smutoys]

@rodster6: I don't mind so much that they're not 7", but I do wish they were at least in scale with another common scale. I like to mix my toy universes, and there's barely anything else these days in 5" scale except the Halo figures.

[geekmatic]

Interesting on the WANT LIST but...

I think you ruined my dinner. Ugh. O_o

[smutoys]

@geekmatic: Hahaha!

[PaperToPlasticReview]

nice man, just got the black and white double pack zombie roamer and lurker from my nearest comic shop, love the figures so  much they are awesome.

[smutoys]

@PaperToPlasticReview: Oh nice! I really want that pack too.

[1zombiestomp]

Tru nearest me is an hour away ! sounds like sunday is gonna b a roadtrip ! Lol

[smutoys]

@1zombiestomp: Damn, that sucks. That's not too bad though. Even though I have four nearby TRU's from 10-20 minutes away, I do have a couple that I go to every now and then that are an hour drive away.

[1zombiestomp]

Those have 2 b the coolest zombie figures ever made ! And i luv me sum zombieds ! :] R they tru exclusive ?

[smutoys]

@1zombiestomp: Yep, they totally are awesome. I think the only one that's a TRU exclusive is the black and white variant Officer Rick Grimes.

[actionfigcollecter]

2:23 just proves that McFarlanes' figures are super well done in detail. Nice review though :D.

[smutoys]

@actionfigcollecter: Thanks!

[BionicleFan461]

lol just watched the first episode of the new season yesterday! I LOVE THIS SHOW lol watched it last and gonna be this season...its so INTENSE!

[smutoys]

@BionicleFan461: Yeah, really excited about this season. Almost thinking I'm gonna let a few episodes record on my DVR before I watch them, 'cause I hate when the episode ends and they give you a crazy cliffhanger and you have to wait a whole week for the next episode... :-\

[BionicleFan461]

@smutoys lol yea the end of the first really left me hangin like :O WHAT!!?!?!?!?!? lol but its so amazing!

[smutoys]

@BionicleFan461: Crazy right? But yeah, good stuff, one of my favorite series.

[BionicleFan461]

@smutoys yea its the best :)

[smutoys]

@BionicleFan461: Totally.

[legobuster3]

cool



[smutoys]

@legobuster3: Yep.

[spoink117]

@smutoys what does the smu in smutoys mean

[smutoys]

@spoink117: Go to my channel page, at the upper left where my avatar/profile pic is, above "smutoys' Channel" you'll find the answer. ;-)

[spoink117]

Do a review of rick grimes please!

[smutoys]

@spoink117: I will soon.

[SuperResi5]

damn smutoys you rock sooo hard bro

[smutoys]

@SuperResi5: Haha nah, but thanks, I appreciate it!

[GearsOfWarAnimations]

bit expensive, but still looking great!!!!! good review man. how have you been?

[smutoys]

@GearsOfWarAnimations: Thanks. Not bad, not great mostly, but okay and hangin' in there hehe. You?

[GearsOfWarAnimations]

@smutoys yeah good thanks

[smutoys]

@GearsOfWarAnimations: That's good.

[yinyinkong2559]

wow very nice , have other character ?

[smutoys]

@yinyinkong2559: I have the two zombies and black and white variant Office Rick Grimes so far.

[tommy41339]

man tha is sick i faved bro

[smutoys]

@tommy41339: Thanks so much!

[spoink117]

Its not that good i much more prefer the zombie lurker its got some pretty cool features!

[smutoys]

@spoink117: I wouldn't say it's not good, just not as good as the lurker.

[Badassgamer3]

My mom is the gremlin. And this is my dad. I'm surprised that I turn out to be a human. :P

[smutoys]

@Badassgamer3: Hahahaha!

[Giometrix009]

that is fucking bitchin

[smutoys]

@Giometrix009: Hell yes.

[xPo1S0nXs0DaX]

Hey, smu, did you catch the Season Premiere of the actual show The Walking Dead sunday? First time watching a full episode and it was awesome, I knew the general idea but never got into watching it regulerly and now im regretting it :D

[smutoys]

@xPo1S0nXs0DaX: Whaaat you never saw the first season? Dude you missed out, you should still watch it. Netflix it or something.

But yeah, great season premiere except the part I hate of every episode, the ending and those damn cliffhangers. :-\

[xPo1S0nXs0DaX]

@smutoys Yeah I know, should'v watched it >:| but I have the free trial of Netflix so ill try.

Yeah and *Spoiler* when that kids staring at the deer for 15 mins then gets shot...crazy stuff.

[smutoys]

@xPo1S0nXs0DaX: Yeah, I was NOT expecting that! Crazy! I was thinking something crazy was gonna happen, like a zombie come out, but not that!

I wonder what happened to the girl though... :-\

Yeah, season 1 is worth a buy actually, but at the very least rent it.

[huttwigley]

McFarlane makes some pretty cool statues!

[smutoys]

@huttwigley: :-D

[MrEJR26]

Nice. Are tou going to get the doctor who figures or are u not into them?

[smutoys]

@MrEJR26: Yeah, can't say I'm a fan of Doctor Who, never watched it (the classic or new series).

[MrEJR26]

@smutoys the new series is good.

[smutoys]

@MrEJR26: I might try to check it out sometime.

[DragonHeart00926]

Thanks so much for reviewing this!

I agree, first one u reviewed was better though they r both highly detailed!

[smutoys]

@DragonHeart00926: Thanks for watching! And yeah, the first one may be better, but this one is good too. :-)

[smutoys]

@LegoHauls: When I first found them I thought I wouldn't like this 'cause of the action feature. Reminded me of the 90's Toy Biz Resident Evil zombies. But again, I couldn't resist.

I have te two zombies and the variant black and white Rick Grimes. There's still color Rick Grimes and Michonne for wave 1. I might hold on those for the TV wave. But, if they don't come out soon I might not resist more, haha.

[c0nfigure]

damn that figure is pretty dope. nice review bro, i recently just started watching that show yesterday actually lol. i caught all 6 episodes of season 1 on netflix and watched the new episode last night. great show!

[smutoys]

@c0nfigure: Wow, that's crazy you caught up on season 1 like that. How come you weren't into it since it started last year?

Kinda cool that way though, watching them back to back instead of waiting a week in anticipation for the next episode.

That's the one thing I hated about last night's episode, that it ended and again left us with those damn cliffhangers and now I gotta pace around like a crack fiend until next Sunday!

[c0nfigure]

@smutoys

yeah bro i never got into it last year for some reason,idk but i'm glad i did. awesome show. i feel you man i hate being left in suspense and have to wait til next week to see what happens..its the worse. really glad this season is longer than the first. i haven't read up on the comic book but i hear its really good too. i think i'm waaaay behind on the issues so i'll probably pick up the trade or just stick to the show.

[smutoys]

@c0nfigure: Yeah, when I heard about the comics so many years ago I was really interested. But, I don't really have time to read comics anymore, nor can I afford to collect them (toys all the way baby)! My fiancee reads them though and has told me about them (so I kinda know some things that might happen later on in the show).

Definitely loving the show. And also glad this season will be longer. Did you catch the Talking Dead too?

[c0nfigure]

@smutoys

Lol, yeah i read comics but only a select few story arcs. try not to get into too much because it does become hella pricey. thats cool your fiance reads them though, you got your "inside man" on the scoop lol. or in this case inside woman. I actually missed out on the Talking Dead, how was it?

[smutoys]

@c0nfigure: Talking Dead was pretty good, entertaining and some good insight.

Yeah, and if I still collected comics, I'd be collecting many titles. Totally can't afford it. All good.

Yeah, it's cool to hear about it from her. Some of the stuff she's told me about I try to imagine if/when/how they'll bring it to life in the show.

[Vdecepticon]

Still a great figure :)

[smutoys]

@Vdecepticon: Definitely!

[DaddyIvo]

Nice sculpt and detailing. I'm a little concerned about the upper-thigh joints. They look obtuse. But hey, it's a freaking zombie! I'm squeemish but that head exploding was freakin' cool. I see roadkill everyday, blood and guts shouldn't bother me. I do notice I'm getting less squeemish as I see more roadkill and squash more squirrels.

[smutoys]

@DaddyIvo: Poor squirrels! ;-)

I'm pretty squeamish as well, with real life gore. But, fictional violence from movies, TV, games, et cetera, I love it! The gorier, the glorier! :-D

[Leg0Reviewer]

Awesome review! It's a pretty cool figure, it's not for me though

[smutoys]

@Leg0Reviewer: Yeah, not for everyone. You pretty much have to be a diehard zombie fan to spend the money on these.

[spoink117]

Zombie roamer vs arbiter :-)

[smutoys]

@spoink117: Hahaha...

[NSproductionz14]

That head splitting action would be great for stopmotions!

[smutoys]

@NSproductionz14: Yeah, would be cool to see how animators could put these to use. Imagine seeing that head explosion brought to life through animation, with all that gory sound?

[LRdrum21]

awesome figure bro! just wish they were easier on the wallet...

[smutoys]

@LRdrum21: Right? But I have to have 'em. :-\

[ColossusOfRhodes1]

Disgusting!

Great figure though...

[smutoys]

@ColossusOfRhodes1: Haha!

[onelegostudio]

OMG. I jizzed my pants. That figure looks sofa king epic! :D

[smutoys]

@onelegostudio: Hell yeah, knew you'd like that gory glory.

[onelegostudio]

@smutoys hahah. i should pick that up and try animating again :'( damn schooil.

[smutoys]

@onelegostudio: Yeah, nothing comes from school. Well except meeting girls.

And of course my advice/opinion on school is the worst in the world. :-D

[onelegostudio]

@smutoys Awwwwwww yeah. Girls ftw. :> Too bad school just takes up precious time.

[smutoys]

@onelegostudio: Yeah, that's why I spent my school time not being in school and chasing after precious girls instead. :-)

[TheDragonSlayerShow]

How come you don't review Spawn figures?

[smutoys]

@TheDragonSlayerShow: I stopped getting Spawn figures long time ago.

[TheDragonSlayerShow]

@smutoys Nooooooooo!

[smutoys]

@TheDragonSlayerShow: Haha. Yeah, had a big collection, been collecting Spawn since the company was called Todd Toys (since the very first one basically). Sold all of them a few years back, my loose and carded/boxed collection.

[dirtnap4u300]

these figs r sick, but my trus r 19.99 n i would rather get a couple marvel legends for thsat much.. boo

[smutoys]

@dirtnap4u300: Yeah, they are pricey. A few of my TRU's have different prices on them. Some are $19.99, some are $17.99.

[Ilikecampfiregamers]

@smutoys did u see the season premire today

[smutoys]

@Ilikecampfiregamers: I did! :-D

[mextallicat]

Sweet figure bro, you diggin the show? 

[smutoys]

@mextallicat: Yeah, watched the season premiere earlier. Liked it except the part I always don't like, the end, especially with those damn cliffhangers!

[mextallicat]

@smutoys For real bro, those cliffhangers are killer. Its a good show, this season is looking good already. 

[smutoys]

@mextallicat: Yeah shit pisses me off. I keep wanting to just let a few episodes collect on my DVR so I can watch them back to back, but I get too excited come Sunday and have to watch it haha!

[DarylPell]

i just sit around blowing up his head... it makes me laugh.

[smutoys]

@DarylPell: Hahaha!

[mrvondudenstein]

man he looks really cool and disgusting! :-) a bit expensive for my taste

[smutoys]

@mrvondudenstein: Yeah, pricey but zombies are must haves.

[rap5]

I just look closer and there is a button lol well at least they painted it the same color as the skin

[smutoys]

@rap5: Yep.

[rap5]

I like how they used a knife as the button for the action feature then a regular looking button. Great review.

[smutoys]

@rap5: Yeah, clever way to blend the lever with the figure.

[Actionfigurexpert]

i wish they were bigger , to fit in with neca and mezco zombie figures

[smutoys]

@Actionfigurexpert: I wish they were bigger or smaller. 5" is an odd scale these days, not many other figures you can use them with. I would have liked either 4" or 6" most.

[frankxcross]

aww man those are friggin sick I must own these.

[smutoys]

@frankxcross: Total must haves.

[Actionfigurexpert]

i couldnt pull myself to get them for 19.99 :(

[smutoys]

@Actionfigurexpert: Steep, I know. But, at one of my TRU's they're $17.99, makes a little difference. I just have to have 'em.

[nave117]

You going to wondercon its in anaheim this year !!!!!!!! 2 cons WOOOO

[smutoys]

@nave117: Oh wow I hadn't heard it's coming to Anaheim, I'm totally there then!

[killdude26]

He just blew his head off this time

[smutoys]

@killdude26: :-)

[ewokhunter47]

Totally badass figure!! What did you think of the Walking Dead season 2 premire???

[smutoys]

@ewokhunter47: I'm watching it right now. ;-)

[ewokhunter47]

@smutoys Hahaha yeah I know, I ment what DO you think of it.

I'm also watching it right now :D

[smutoys]

@ewokhunter47: I'm a big fan, so of course I've been crazy excited for it.

[lurio10000]

Wow!! hope the next figure is more awesomer and definer as this figure is can't wait let the zombie domination roll thanks professsor take care eat ya later ;))

[smutoys]

@lurio10000: Hahaha nice one!

But yeah, great figure. Look forward to more from this line.

[cejaman]

Man I saw these like 3 wks ago and I was hoping they were a bit bigger. And 20 bucks is a bit much, they look decent but probably would of been better in a 7 inch scale. Good review

[smutoys]

@cejaman: Thanks. And yeah, they are pricey for their size. And I kinda agree with the scale issue, however it's more of I just wish they were in a more common scale so that they could be used with more figures. There's very few 5" scale lines these days. Even though 4" is my scale of preference, I wouldn't have minded them in 6" or 7" either.

[TheBudgetJedi]

Damn again with the details and the hyper- playability these are awesomeeee! man love love love these reviews man. I agree not as nice as the lurker but I would NOT get the lurker without getting this one. Thumbs up

[smutoys]

@TheBudgetJedi: Thanks bro! And yeah, both are totally must haves! Here's hoping for more zombies figures soon!

[Builderanddestroyer]

@smutoys Thanks for reviewing this one. Damn creepy figure!

[smutoys]

@Builderanddestroyer: Thank you!

[spoink117]

I like zombie movies and zombie games its just so fun to see there head flying after you hit it with a bat

[smutoys]

@spoink117: Totally!

[ultimatemarvelanddc]

Another great review. I love zombies.

[smutoys]

@ultimatemarvelanddc: Yeah man, gotta love zombies!

[ultimatemarvelanddc]

@smutoys I heard these toys are pretty expensive.

[smutoys]

@ultimatemarvelanddc: They are. MSRP of about $16.99. They're $17.99-$19.99 at TRU.

[1infernokid]

cool

[smutoys]

@1infernokid: Yep.
