One big reason (of many) that Robert Kirkman's The Walking Dead comic book series is so addictive right now is because of Alpha, and to celebrate the multi-faceted character, McFarlane Toys and Skybound have teamed up for a new Alpha figure.

Officially revealed today and available beginning at 12:01am EST this Black Friday on Shop.TheWalkingDead.com or Shop.Skybound.com, the Alpha figure will be released as a full color version and a bloody black-and-white edition. Both types of the figure come armed with a machete and shotgun and are equipped with an alternate head.

From Skybound: "As is becoming a bit of a tradition here at Skybound, we have our latest McFarlane Figure premiering for Black Friday! 2015 brings up the leader of the Whisperers. The enigmatic and brutal ALPHA. Available in two versions, Color and Bloody B&W Alpha comes with machete, shotgun, and an alternate head so you can pose her masked or in all of her bald glory!

We're offering our biggest sale ever starting this Friday! We're taking from 10% to as much as 65% off items in the shop! A sizable chunk of our online store will be discounted!

Price reductions will go into effect at 12:01am EST on Friday and last throughMonday! Our shops are linked, so you can access them through either Shop.TheWalkingDead.com or Shop.Skybound.com! Things will be selling out, so don't dilly dally!"

In addition to their Alpha figure, Skybound will also be releasing gunmetal gray versions of the Michonne katana bracelet and Lucille pendant as part of their Han Cholo Walking Dead Jewelry line, as well as a blue line edition of The Walking Dead #1 and translucent blue versions of The Whisperers, Jesus, Ezekiel, Abraham, and Andrea PVC figures.
