“The Walking Dead” is getting ready to unleash a horde of Walkers on the NFT world. AMC and “The Walking Dead” have teamed with Orange Comet, a premium NFT (Non-Fungible Token) creative studio and blockchain experience company, announced to release The Walking Dead NFT Collection, which will be released on the OpenSea marketplace on March 3, 2022.
Commemorating the last season of the original series, which kicked off one of the biggest TV franchises in history, the drop is centered around The Walker Access Pass NFT, sold for just 24 hours on OpenSea starting at 9:00 am PT / 12 noon ET / GMT 17:00 on March 3 and not sold again for at least an entire year…if ever.
Orange Comet’s exclusive NFT “The Walker Access Passes” will feature one of 10 custom 3D Walker models created especially for ultra fans and serious NFT collectors. The Walkers will be randomly minted with each purchase and fall into one of five categories: Legendary, Epic, Super Rare, Rare, and Uncommon. Each of The Walker Pass grants lifetime access to exclusive drops, and pass holders will be whitelisted on all general drops, giving them early access before the general public. These drops will contain new character avatars, animations, and 1:1 generative designs.
Pass holders will also get additional real-world perks, including access to exclusive autographed “The Walking Dead” merchandise before being offered to non-pass holders, and will qualify for member events and immersive experiences throughout the year, including an in-person series finale party at a location to be announced.
In addition to the intricately crafted The Walker Access Pass NFTs, Orange Comet is also announcing an auction of four 1 of 1 commemorative golden variant pieces of fan-favorite characters: Michonne, Rick, Daryl, and Maggie. These high-grade NFTs will be available to the general public starting at 0.11 ETH, and the auction will only last 48 hours.
Fans of The Walking Dead and collectors can sign up now at OrangeComet.com to learn more about the drop. After the initial drop on OpenSea, subsequent NFTs will drop throughout the final season of The Walking Dead, leading up to Orange Comet launching The Walking Dead virtual universe where fans will be able to gather to buy, sell, and trade their NFTs along with the chance to earn real-world fan experiences related to the series.
