Remember when we spent months wondering who Negan had whacked in the skull with his signature barbed-wire bat Lucille, only to have our hearts broken when it turned out to be Glenn AND Abraham? Would you rather he had taken out somebody else? Well, now you can make a different scenario play out. McFarlane Toys‘ newly announced 10-inch Negan figure comes in full whacking mode, like a Springfield resident approaching a snake…but there’s no Glenn-on-his-knees to finish the scene. This means you can put any toy you like in his place.
Maybe you think the foul-mouthed Savior leader should try hitting He-Man with that thing? Or perhaps pro-wrestler Mick Foley, who’s no stranger to barbed-wire bats? Hey, perhaps you could even go totally innocent with it, and display him hitting an actual baseball?
Or give him some real competition…
Like previous characters in The Walking Dead 10-inch line, Negan will be mostly pre-posed with limited articulation and a circular black base. He’s coming in smaller scales that will be more articulated, but this is strictly a bring-the-pain version. Check out a few more angles on the figure in our mini-gallery below, and the rest at McFarlane.com.
No matter who you pose him with, though, the toy does come with one lifelike feature–you’ll have to wait til September to see him actually do the deed in your home, as that’s when the figure is being released. Clever. He’ll retail for $34.99.
Which of your other character figures is on his hit list? Let us know in comments.
