Um, did I miss a thread for this? I ordered an Ed and a Shaun.

Re: Shaun of the dead!!!!

Re: Shaun of the dead!!!!

I was wondering why no one posted a thread about this yet.

Yeah me too, I kept looking back to make sure I didn't miss it. I screamed like a little girl when I saw it though, yay more horror stuff. Now give us more new horror figures!

Re: Shaun of the dead!!!!

I ordered both ex.'s. They are really going to nice with The Dead line.

Re: Shaun of the dead!!!!

This will compliment their Dead line well.

Re: Shaun of the dead!!!!

They look pretty good......but $60? Not much in the way of outfits to warrant that high of a price.

Sorry to be a party pooper.

If you think $60 is a lot, you must not own any HT stuff. $60 is a great deal for these considering the accessories.

You're right, but Medicom is charging 150 for Jigsaw. 60 for these guys seems almost cheap.

Re: Shaun of the dead!!!!

They look TERRIBLE.

Those headsculpts are harsh, hopefully they'll be softened up some by the time production comes around. Ed looks more like Sloth, than anyone else.

We really need a new body type, the joints are just ugly.

And at $60 to boot. . . :sigh:

My Hot Toys Jack Sparrow blows these Shaun of the Dead figures out of the water, in costuming accuracy, fit of clothing, headsculpt. . . it's just insane to try to compare the two.

Then I guess you just don't have to buy them.

Re: Shaun of the dead!!!!

Yes, let's certainly hope that those head sculpts are a work in progress, because right now they're bad. The awful gloss paint doesn't help any, of course.

Unless that's supposed to be Zombie Ed

Re: Shaun of the dead!!!!

I was in such a blind ordering rage I didn't even notice the head sculpts. not sure I dig the expression on Shaun's face, however, I'm not being picky, it's new 1/6 horror, yay!:chew:chew:chew

I'm a big HT and Medicom critic because of prices on stuff like the Rocky figures or Prison Break (stuff with minimal or simple clothing), but I'd much rather pay $130-$150 for something with super detailed garb like HT's Jack Sparrow or Medicom's Jango Fett than $60 for a guy in a t shirt and sweats...

Is Shaun or Ed really worth $10 more than the Dead spokesman for example?

Re: Shaun of the dead!!!!

I'm so excited about these!!! Adam and I were Shaun and Ed for Halloween, so we GOTTA have them!!!!!

Re: Shaun of the dead!!!!

I agree that some things need to be worked on but for the most part I am happy that they announced these. I still do think HT could have nailed these out of the park but you do get what you pay for.

Thanks Professor...

Re: Shaun of the dead!!!!

I think on both the paint is too high gloss, also the cheek bones on Ed near his eyes look a little too pronounced.
With Simon Pegg, the furrows of his face are very deep and the ruddy complexion isn't helping.
Mostly I think it's the paint that's throwing the likenesses off.
