I think we need a zombie clown.
I would take a Tallahassee figure over a Zombie Clown. Although it would be funny to see a Zombie Stripper complete with spinning boobie tassles.
Zombie clown... meh. Not a horrible choice but still seems a little over the top and shark jumping. But hell, we have a zombie Santa so...
I just wonder how many different zombie occupations they can come up with before they get ridiculous? Zombie pimp, zombie figure skater, zombie cowboy, zombie ninja, zombie pirate, zombie golfer...
Personally, I'd go with zombie redneck next, with overalls, plaid shirt, axe, pitchfork and 'Palin 2012' button.
A real redneck would never vote for a woman.

Personally, I prefer the more Hillbilly Hee-Haw reject type redneck rather than a hunter redneck.

ha, ok, Mike. What Mall do you go to? And if you say zombs invade comic con, well heck, you got a wide assortment of weirdos to pick from. I take it you don't think this line can ever jump the shark and become absurd?
But the question isn't so much how they could explain away the costumes and looks so much as do you want a zombie figure skater or pirate made? Surely there are only so many good character choices and designs.
*and dammit I'm tired of seeing Darklord Voldy in your sig.
good point, nam. damned variants! If they had to do variants... at least give us new accessories and new or tweaked head sculpts. But again, don't want to give ideas. Variants stink! Hopefully the establishment of an EX version has rid us of the dreaded variant. I really like how they handled the Punk - useful accessory and limited to a scant 245 pieces.
But really, ren-fair zomb? Zombies throughout the ages? conquistador zombie, civil war zomb, caveman zombie, astronaut zombie, samurai zombie... interesting ideas but I dunno... picturing them on a shelf doesn't really do it for me.
Personally I'd like to see SS get a bit more creative with this line's sculpts. The hands are really cool... go further. Gimme heads cast with multiple pieces for a nice 3-d gaping effect. Go a bit more skeletal with torso pieces showing exposed ribs, semi-severed dangling arms, rubber entrails with zombie pets devouring them. I still say just given birth preggers zomb with her entire torso ripped open with trailing zomb baby with umbilical cord still attached would be quite horrific. Go more brutal and less goofy I say! They should stay closer to scary and disturbing the way the line started and less goofy. Make me puke not laugh! Though I guess both puking and laughing could be ok. uke
Ok, nam, any non-variant, non-celeb zomb you would say it too absurd or stupid to produce?
Ice cream truck driver zomb might be a cool figure (heheh) with frozen organs on a stick.
Truth? Zombie animals. I'd also consider that jumping the shark. Technically this is supposed to be like a virus. I could see zombie primates since they're the closest physically, but not things like dogs, cats, birds, chickens, etc. They work in games as scare tactics, but I never really bought them in the RE movies and are really entirely unnecessary unless your story's limping along. If your human zombies are creepy enough, why use the crutch?
