If you're a fan of zombie toys then there's a damn good chance you're a fan of Sideshow Collectibles' The Dead series of toys.  The toy line, featuring such interesting figures as a babysitter zombie, a preacher zombie, and a homeless zombie, seems to create its own mythology and history with the arrival of each new figure.  And now they're bringing you a peek into how the whole zombie crisis started with their Patient Zero figure!  The figure depicts what, in The Dead universe, is considered the first case of the zombie plague.  The simple figure features an insane amount of detail (rotting flesh, dull eyes, rigor mortis...the goods!) and the Premium, Sideshow Exclusive version of the figure even comes holding a severed hand!  The figure stands 17.5 inches tall and weighs in at seven pounds.  It'll cost you around 280 bucks too!  Now that's something to scream at and run away from!
