Robert Kirkman’s Skybound Entertainment is teaming up with Greg Nicotero to produce a line of products based on The Walking Dead comic book series. Kirkman has revealed that the first offering will be a life-size zombie sculpt only available at this year's Comic Con. We have all the details, including a preview image released by EW Online:
“I was so jealous when I saw what Greg Nicotero and KNB EFX Group created for AMC’s The Walking Dead television show that I sat down with him to see if he’s be interested in working his magic on The Walking Dead comic book series... Luckily he agreed, and now I get to see awesome 3-D representations of the zombies that have appeared in the comic book over the years.”
There are only 25 pieces and they will be available this Wednesday for $500 at the Skybound Comic-Con booth. The sculpt is a 1:1 scale silicone bust that features real human hair. The image below is also being used as the Comic-Con exclusive cover of The Walking Dead issue #87 and is limited to 5,000 copies.
