Walking Dead Subscription Box
We have Funko Subscription boxes for Star Wars, DC, Marvel and Disney. Now we need one for the Walking Dead. The Walking Dead has a ton of characters from the TV show and the comics to make this box great. How many people would love to get this Subscription and what character would you like to see in it first?

Re: Walking Dead Subscription Box
The only issue I would see is that you'd run out of themes really fast. The sub boxes already in existence have a rich history and stories to pull on. There's only so many "Prison" "Alexandria" "Saviors" boxes you can do. You could, in theory, do 6 boxes a year of just TWD exclusives with a pop or two each time, but I feel like Funko likes to be thematic with their boxes.

Re: Walking Dead Subscription Box
With the amount of Sub Boxes currently on the market, I don't know if people would be willing to shell out money for a 5th. That being said, I'm a big TWD fan, and I'd be willing to put down some cash for a yearly box of Funko TWD.
WHAT AM I DOING?!?!?!

Maybe if they roll out a few more spin-off series (like Fear the Walking Dead) then you could make bi-monthly sub box feasible, but otherwise you really would be looking at more of an annual offering. Which could be interesting for shows like TWD, GoT, Dr. Who, if Funko every so often did a one-time box, but that would be really a brand new business model for them. But I could see it working if they tied it in to a season premiere, especially the way we now have hit TV shows staggered through the year instead of all starting in the Fall and wrapping up in the Spring.

Re: Walking Dead Subscription Box
This would be awesome but as someone mentioned above not sure how sustainable it would be on a yearly basis due to lack of themes.

Re: Walking Dead Subscription Box
Walking Dead would be nice, but I'm not sure if they do one since Skybound has their own subscription box with McFarlane Toys

Re: Walking Dead Subscription Box
Would definitely be in for a walking dead box but realistically it might be closer to a "television" box focusing on a different hit show every two months

I could get on board with this for sure. They could make an exclusive to go with the sets they have already made for the seasons. Huge fan!

Re: Walking Dead Subscription Box
It would probably be more reasonable for Funko to do some sort of bi yearly Jumbo one off box of exclusive items of themes different to what are already out there. Similar in idea to the year one box it could be more money but more quantity.

Definitely agree with you on this. I think we would just end up getting a bunch of goofy variants.

Re: Walking Dead Subscription Box
Just reading everyone's post. I'm a huge Dead fan. It should be really amazing if they had a Walking Dead Collectors Box. I do see the issue of potentially running out of themes but honestly fans that love a series will never shy away. I'm for it. They should create one.

The Walking Dead is a large universe. As far as monthly themes go they can use story lines from past seasons, the comics, video games and FTWD.

Not everyone is subscribed to every box. It’s nice to have a variety.

Re: Walking Dead Subscription Box
I would seriously be all over a TWD subscription box! An exclusive TWD Pop in each box (there are tons of characters that can be made with lots of variants) and TWD Pop shirts ... I would love it!! Do it, Funko!!

I would love this, but make it quarterly. That would make it last a bit longer.

Re: Walking Dead Subscription Box
It would be an interesting subscription box to have. It isn't my cup of tea, but I could definitely see a good following behind this box.

Re: Walking Dead Subscription Box
I wonder if they will work with AMC for AMC's new Walking Dead subscription box. That could be a good way to get some box exclusives but not do an entire subscription box of their own. http://www.mysubscriptionaddiction.com/ ... e-now.html

Re: Walking Dead Subscription Box
This could be a cool idea for diehard TWD fans. I personally would love a whole line based on the comic variants of the characters all done in black and white.

Re: Walking Dead Subscription Box
I would love a TWD subscription box! I think the only concern is what others mentioned which is sustainability. Not many themes you could do.
BUT. I think I would totally sub if it were a one or two year only subscription box! That way they can move onto a different subscription box like say Game of Thrones or Harry Potter.

Re: Walking Dead Subscription Box
I just don't think Walking Dead has enough of a fan base. What I think would be cool is if they ended one of their boxes (probably DC), and then replaced it with an alternating theme box. For example, Box 1 could be GOT, Box 2 could be TWD, Box 3 could be classic nickelodeon, box 4 could be DW, box 5 could be Overwatch and box 6 could be FNAF. I think that would so awesome!

Re: Walking Dead Subscription Box
I think it’d have to be a part of a wider “TV” box which deals with very popular tv properties like Westworld, TWD, GoT etc.

Man this would of been a great subscription box to have been made. Maybe if the box got made more in its prime rather than when some crazy stuff went down on the show and lost a ton of viewers. But I'd imagine we'd could of done a few of these and had some cool exclusives.

Yeah the Walking Dead hype has died down. Walking Dead is what got me into collecting Pops so I would still love a subscription box though. Maybe have Pops from the new spin-offs.
