McFarlane Reveals Upcoming “The Walking Dead” Aaron Action Figure

Published

Because come on. Who doesn’t want a Ross Marquand toy?!

A recruiter for the Alexandria Safe Zone, we first met Aaron back in Season 5 of “The Walking Dead,” and he’s since gone on to become a major character in the AMC series. How do you know when a character on the show is considered “major”? When McFarlane gives that character their very own action figure, of course!

Just shown off over on the McFarlane Toys website, the 5″ Aaron action figure is coming soon, and it includes approximately 22 points of articulation and is sculpted in the character’s Season 5 outfit. The figure, featuring a digital scan of Ross Marquand, comes with a listening device with headphones, a Remington Model Seven Compact Rifle, a license plate, and a pistol.

McFarlane describes the character:

Good-natured and adventurous, Aaron was the ideal choice to be Alexandria’s recruiter. Despite the harsh and un-trusting reaction he received from initial contact of Rick’s group, he saw the good that can come out of even the roughest members. He knew Alexandria needed Rick if they planned to stay alive. Aaron was not only correct in his judgement but became a valued and trusted individual with the survivors, which helped lead them and Alexandria into a whole new world.

Check out your first look below and look for Aaron on store shelves soon!

‘Alien Hunt’ – It’s an ‘Alien’ and ‘Predator’ Mockbuster Rolled into One! [Trailer]

Published

While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.

This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.

You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!

In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?

“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.

“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”

Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
