Last week, we gave you an early look at Diamond Select Toy's Hershel's Farm Minimates, an exclusive set only available at next month's San Diego Comic-Con. The figures have now been officially announced and we have a new set of photos.

"At Comic-Con International in 2012, Diamond Select Toys released the first two-pack from their line of The Walking Dead Minimates, based on the best-selling Skybound comic book by Robert Kirkman. The two-pack quickly sold out, and DST swore to top themselves in 2013. Now, with the third full series of The Walking Dead Minimates in stores, DST and Skybound are proud to announce a new exclusive four-pack for this year's Comic-Con!

This year's Comic-Con exclusive Walking Dead Minimates box set is titled Hershel's Farm, and it includes four different Minimates based on the famous farmhouse story arc. Included in the set are Hershel, his deceased son Zombie Shawn, Lookout Duty Rick and a Barn Zombie. The Minimates come in a blister-carded four-pack, and each stands 2 inches tall, with a variety of interchangeable parts and accessories, including a pitchfork and a blanket. The set will be limited to only 3000 produced.

The set will be available at the Diamond Select Toys booth, #2607, as well as from various retailers around the show floor. Comic-Con International takes place July 18-21 at the San Diego Convention Center."
