'Night of the Living Dead' Toys Resurrected
For all you worshipers of the undead out there who always dreamed of holding an 8-inch flesh-eating zombie in the palm of your hand, EMCE toys is giving you a reason to go on! In light of the 40th Anniversary of Night of the Living Dead, EMCE Toys has decided to resurrect your undead favorites in poseable action-figure form! In June of this year, the first two figures in a Dead figure series will be released--modeled after fan-favorite Bill Hinzman, a.k.a. the Graveyard Zombie,and Duane Jones, a.k.a. Ben, the film?s rifle-happy hero. EMCE then plans to release additional figures modeled after other Living Dead stars--like Judith O'Dea as "Barbra" and Kyra Schon as the "Karen Cooper Zombie". With heads sculpted by popular figure artist James Brady, the series of NOTLD action figures will feature classic rotocast plastic-style and MEGO-style blister packaging, with illustrations from artist Harold Shull. That's right, people--for just $17.99 each, you can purchase a piece of Night of the Living Dead history this summer!
