So I just finished season 3 of the series, and I feel like I need a Governor mini for my zombie games. I know Studio Miniatures does a version of him from the comic series, but does anyone do a TV show version? I'm fine with anything in the 25 to 32mm range.
Thanks!

hmm not really. Either way your gonna have to convert one. Either use the WGF male survivors to make one. Or use the Studio Miniatures one with a head swap.

perhaps

Hasslefree Miniatures do a the proper Governor from the graphic novels.

I like that Hasslefree Governor especially the Styer that he's carrying.
-
Hasslefree has a TV version of The Governor (albeit with a bit longer hair)

I like the TV version better than the comic version myself, just because the "proper" Governor is just so evil and ruthless.
Edit: now that I look closer his eyepatch is on the wrong eye...sorry ;)

I thought so. I remember watching the show and he was firing his styer )right handed) and I thought: How can he aim with an eyepatch? The configuration of the weapon doesn't allow for that.

Actually, it's supposed to be Snake Plissken

I know that mini, I was thinking this guy might work

It seems all of Hasslefree's NOT TWD minis are based on the Comic versions

Don't get me wrong, these are great minis, but like you, I'd like to have TV versions.

Its bugging me now. They are not Hasslefree miniatures. They are made by Studio miniatures but both company sell the others products in there stores.
There I feel better now. Daryl Dixon isn't in in the comics he was created for the tv series only.
Consectari How does the Governor figure even look like Snake Pliskin really? Just because he has an eye patch?

I say it is more than just the eyepatch. But that is just me. :-)

I really don't see it. The governor figure is not even wearing the same clothing, weapons, different hairstyle, Handlebar moustache?
I've seen Escape from L.A plenty of times thanks I'd re watch it If I was you might refresh your memory. Even the Picture you posted looks nothing like the governor figure?

Daryl was created for the TV show originally, and made it into the comic series (I don't know if he has appeared yet, but he's going to) The Studio Miniatures mini is based on the Series Character

Maybe if you just used the head - on the Studio Governors body perhaps.

I dont need to rewatch anything. If u reread above on the thread you would see what i saw.
Check out "reply #6" by dsteingass. He suggested using the mini here http://www.hfminis.co.uk/shop?product=falcon~smh015&category=miniatures~studio-zombies-%2F-survivors for a Gov mini.
Check out "reply #8" by you. You said "This isn't the tv version sorry its the comic version."
Check out "reply #9" consectari. He said "Actually, it's supposed to be Snake Plissken" referring to the link that dsteingass stated in "reply #6"
Check out "reply #10" by dsteingass. HE shows the actual pic of the Hasslefree mini he was referring to.
Check out "reply #12" by you. You asked "Consectari How does the Governor figure even look like Snake Pliskin really? Just because he has an eye patch? "
Check out "reply #13" by me. I link a pic of Snake Plisskin from Escape from LA, which looks like the pic that dsteingass linked before to show you what consectari was talking about back on "reply #9"
Does this fully explain and answer your question to consectari back on "reply #12"???
This type of confusion happens when people answer others on a topic without adding quotes to the question they are answering.

But we aren't on about finding a snake pliskin model are we? We are looking for a TV version of the governor which was my point? To me I don't see how that version of Snake Pliskin looks like the tv version of the governor?
I asked what he saw in that figure that made it look like the tv governor beside the eye patch? That he had a patch on a different eye because its the comic governor.
Your comment about who the figure is based on is and telling me to go watch Escape from L.A is pointless I Know who Snake Pliskin is! Were looking for a tv governor!

Don't you fracking LOVE people who ask for advice and opinions - and then other people get "testy" when it's not what they want to hear (read?) - Jeeze!

@Brummie Thug
The point was, dsteingass posted a link to a Snake Plissken mini. You then replied This isn't the tv version sorry its the comic version.
But you were wrong. It wasn't the comic version, it was Snake Plissken. That's what I was pointing out. I never said it looked like any version of the governor, that was dsteingass.
However, had the eye patch been on the correct side, I think it would have passed.

Why not find a suitable head, and sculpt a patch on . . . .
-
Honestly, please find something constructive to argue about.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
-
Your perfectly right. It makes no sense to argue. No 'offense' was intended to anyone just wanted to know why people think what they did about the figures as I didn't see it the way they did.
The Studio Miniatures Comic governor with a head swap of some description. I though perhaps a Crooked Dice Minion head would do with a putty eye patch on
