New York ComicCon The Walking Dead Winnebago Chieftan toy

Hopefully this will see the light of day and not remain a prototype. I'm a really big fan of the show and the Winnebago was featured in the first few seasons before getting torched and burning down

I *think* I read it's a 1976... but I'm sure you all would know more.

From AMC's The Walking Dead.

It's a 73 Cheiftain. I'm pretty sure they torched a stand in and not the "nice" one that was in most of the scenes.

The two dark circles up front you are referring to look like a rooftop condenser & fans for the dash air conditioning. Old semi tractors had these too.

It's weird, some sites say 1977, some say 1973...

The one in the show is a 1973 Chieftain D-27C. The wheels are 19.5" one piece rims that were introduced in mid 1973 when disc brakes were first offered. The interior is also the one offered in 1973. It also has the rare Custom dash setup. There is a video tour of it on AMC's website.

Good to know.

It's definitely a '73. 


If the opportunity arises to buy one of the toys, get it.  Not that the Winnebago is worth diddly, but the popularity of the show will make it a collectible item with increasing value.
