OK, I am not sure how Walgreen's won the honor of exclusivity for releasing this MacFarlane action figure of Aaron, but whatever UndeadWalking "McFarlane Toys released photos of its next AMC The Walking Dead 5″ action figure, which will be exclusive to Walgreens in January. Collectors of McFarlane Toys’ 5″ The Walking Dead action figures should be excited about the news of a new figure coming exclusively to Walgreens. McFarlane has moved away from the 5″ figures and on to other larger figures and collections in the last year. The website just posted new photos of the Aaron figure that will be exclusive to Walgreens and is expected this month. It is listed as coming soon and coming this January so keep your eyes open the next time you are in a Walgreens store. Aaron has his clean catalog-model look from when he first met the group and invited them to audition for membership in Alexandria in season 5.. He’s sporting the nice blue plaid shirt, rain jacket, and back pack. He has a rifle, headphones, and even a license plate cleverly designed with the 4MC TWD.

That doesn't look much like Aaron. But it does look like the Aaron on the Rise up poster.

Nice job comparing with the image Starlight. Here is the MacFarlane linkPrice is $14.99 which is a bit less expensive than previous figures IIRC.

Walgreen's site link with the action figures currently in stock linkI am glad Aaron is getting an action figure and is now included as a member of team family I'd still like to see some earlier characters get figures.

His face resembles that of a boxer's after the boxer got his face smashed him.

I wonder if Walgreen's paid AMC or MacFarlane for exclusivity. seems likely.

I like Aaron but I'm surprised by this release, particularly since I rarely talk to any GA members who remember him. I fielded many questions during 7.1 from people asking about "that guy in the lineup".
