Walking Dead
Meet the fans who watched season 1 of The Walking Dead and just never left. We’re still angry about the Shane thing two years later, we still get sad baby goosebumps looking back on the prison arc, we all felt like Rick deserved better. We’re talking to you, fellow eternal optimists. That’s why we built this collection ourselves rather than leaving it to some nobody who only knows it from the ratings drop.
Picking presents for a Walking Dead fan is simple right up until you actually try to find something. Official merch is either infuriatingly cheap rubbish or obscenely priced collectibles, and it all looks like it was made by someone getting inspirational from the Fast Things Highlights video. We wanted something better than that, so we went searching for gifts that would truly resonate with people who can spot the difference between a tacky Lucille keyring from the local petrol station and something built with a bit of pride.
Anything you find in this collection has passed The Test. Would a hardcore fan of The Walking Dead care about this thing? Not just know it, but LIKE it. That meant considering fans of the comics too (you know who you are), fans that have watched whole seasons multiple times and fans that will fight you on the best season till the day we die. These are our fans. These are the fans we made this for.
There’s a reason for everything you see here. Some of it is really good, and actually smart. That’s the kind of stuff that comes from understanding what made the show important to them, not just recognizing its name. Some of it is just what they’ve been saying they wanted for years but never bought themselves. Trust us, those are the best gifts.
The Walking Dead was eleven seasons of television that garnered some of the most dedicated fans the medium has ever seen. Fans that deserve better than some factory shit grey shirt with walkers climbing up it. We think we’ve found stuff that lives up to that.
