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

Rick, Lori, and Carl

Michonne (I have these models, waiting to be worked on)

Darryl

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

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

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

but perhaps not.

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

I really don't see it. The governor figure is not even wearing the same clothing, weapons, different hairstyle, Handlebar mustache?

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?
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!

@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 . . . .

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
