Lizzie Samuels (played by Brighton Sharbino) was one of the most unique characters to come into the TV series of The Walking Dead; she brought to the table a unique perspective on the Walkers from the eyes of a young, misunderstood and helplessly warped survivor. Not to mention that she made an exceptional marksman for a youngin'.
Despite her mental illness, Lizzie was simply a girl trying to connect with the post-apocalyptic world and the fellow survivors the best way she knew how before she could lose another loved one; and in that, we got one of the most misunderstood, mentally-warped and undeniably greatest characters of all time who left an impression on so many viewers in just one season, including myself. As much as I wished Lizzie stayed in the show for at least another season, and had hope that she'd have that chance to come back, she was a reminder that not everyone gets that chance, and for that message, Lizzie made her mark.
Lizzie Samuels will always be one of my favorite Walking Dead characters, and I know I'm not the only fan who feels that way. And after Sunday's episode, seeing Brighton's behind-the-scenes interview, and seeing all the love being sent to Brighton's page, I figured, "Why doesn't Lizzie Samuels get an action figure?" Like how Carl has one.
I know that there's a difference between a main character who has appeared in multiple seasons and a character who's only been in one season, but I think that Lizzie served a very important role for who she was as a character and what she meant to other survivors. And Brighton performed the role immaculately, so I thought it would be really great to try to put this petition together for fans and toy-collectors alike to show Brighton how phenomenal she was. Besides, who wouldn't love to have another awesome piece of Walking Dead merchandise in their possession?
Dear Robert Kirkman,
I send you my regards and respectfully petition the making of an action figure in the image of Lizzie Samuels of The Walking Dead. Though she was only here for a short time, Lizzie was a character that contributed to the fourth season through her unique perspective on the post-apocalyptic world. Despite exhibiting a mental illness, Lizzie was a character filled with good intent who tried to understand and find some joy and happiness in the new world the best way she knew how.
The character development you gave Lizzie in this season made her an eccentric and warped character that left fans feeling semi-terrified and yet so full of adoration and sympathy for the misunderstood Lizzie; and Brighton Sharbino's exceptional performance as Lizzie significantly made an impression on fans as many of us were left emotional. It takes careful screen-writing and directing and the talents of a phenomenal actress to have that kind of power over fans!
So in this petition, we ask that you kindly think about possibly scheduling Lizzie Samuels to come out in the next series of Walking Dead action figures, so that fans and avid toy-collectors alike could enjoy adding another exquisite piece of Walking Dead merchandise to their collection! In this petition, we mean to demonstrate how much Brighton Sharbino is adored as an actress by her fans, and how much we enjoyed seeing her in The Walking Dead. We think it would be a great way to thank Brighton by giving her the chance to further make her mark in her role of Lizzie by making an action figure in her image!
