Grim Crew Presents: Dead Future

When you were a kid, did you ever make model cars? Did you spend hours on end gluing together that ’67 Corvette and painstakingly hand painting those sweet racing stripes on the side? Maybe your fancy was air planes? Or maybe you were a mega dork like me and hand painted all of your Warhammer figurines with hours of detail work to make them life like as possible. But you’ve grown out of that now that you’re an adult. You have your jobs or school, and don’t have time for those menial hobbies of the past. Well my friend, you might want to find your old model kits and make the time.

What to do with the spare heads? Paint em up anyway and leave em laying around your play set. Then say the zombie hunters were here.

Emce Toys has created a hobby kit that is sure to attack your brain. Their new zombie kits come with enough parts to make a mini zombie movie. You have 3 bodies, 5 heads, 2 pairs of forarms, 2 pair of lower legs, 2 pair of hands, and 1 pair of feet. Even though there aren’t enough peaces to create 3 full zombies who said your extra zombies needed that arm? In my book a zombie missing an arm is still a zombie. The best part about this kit is the fact that the figures are not painted, so you can customize how you want your zombie to look. In case your detailing skills are a tad bit rusty, you can check out the dvd that comes with the set that will give you tips and tricks to make your zombies as lifelike as possible.

Well what if model kits weren’t your thing? Emce Toys has a whole line up of zombie related toys to tickle your fancy. On the low end of the scale you have the zombie containment units.  For around $5 dollars a barrel these affordable figurines glow in the dark like all good radiation zombies should. The barrel also comes with glow in the dark ooze, keeping your zombie fresh and full of rads.

I actually think she looks better as a zombie.

And if you’re looking for something a little more collectible, check out their action figures. The Emce action figures capture the likeness of the characters from one of the most prolific zombie films of all time “Night of the Living Dead”, and from the intellectual property of Fourthcastel with “War of the Dead.”

Not your Daddy's cowboys and Indians!

And finally what boy grew up without playing with toy soldiers. Well if you want your little zombie slayer to be prepared for his or her future, you should take a look at the Zombies vs. Zombie Hunter toys. Modeled after toy soldiers you child will have the time of his life setting up battle scenes and fighting the war against the undead.

With all that you now have an excuse to take a trip down memory lane and get in touch the little zombie hunter inside. Pricing of all these items varies depending on your vendor, but with Christmas just around the corner, the pricing of these items will make them a great pick up this holiday season.
