The All Things THE DEAD Thread (read)- BRAINSSSSS!

that fido is just ____ing awesome, great job..............

Stopping the dead line in 1/6 made no sense. The reused items and clothes released in other figures, all they needed was a new head, hands maybe arms and they all sold (until the attack of the variants)

Guaranteed money makers, affordable and small enough to display.

 

[furystorm]

The 1/6 was a very cool line, and each was neat, minus the endless variants. Didn't see the need for that. Maybe one here and there, but they beat it to death. And I can still see them making another babysitter, in PF form!

I had most of them at one point, but jettisoned them when the line kind of fizzled out. Might have stayed on if I was given the IV drip of one or two a year. Kept on the buck, they were an affordable fun collection.

All I need is PZ and my Dead are complete.

No Babysitter. No Tactical Containment Unit soldier. No Punk (which I may reconsider, but probably not).

Variants; I guess they're what happens when a company wants to still make money but don't want to invest anymore money to do it.

 

[Entropy]

Anyone who has a black suited Spooktacular 805 tactical zombie to sell, preferably MIB, please PM me.

 

[Mr ?]

To tag along on the previous post, I am looking for The Harbinger Subject: 2221 figure. Please PM me also! MIB not important!

I remember the hullaballoo about the Blonde Babysitter before SSC decided to import it. I had to get mine from France and ordered 2 just in case for trade bait. The 2nd is sitll just sitting sealed in a box.

I picked mine up from that Belgian store when she was first discovered.

It would be great if Sideshow, Triad, etc. made more 1/6 scale zombies available. I have most of what has been released so far.

Please be kind; this is my first youtube video of my custom Fido figure:

I am always on the hunt for more to add to my collection. I've made a few customs but I am never 100% happy with the final results. I need to add more blood splatter and tear up the clothes on some of these.

 

[devilof76]

Those are fantastic.

My two personal favorite 1:6 zombies are Patient Zero and the Street Prophet. Damn I wish Sideshow would raise the zombies back from The Dead once again. I remember around this time of the year they always had an announcement of a cool new zombie in the works. Even though I'm a big PF collector for other lines, I much prefer the zombies in 1:6 all the way.

 

[devilof76]

Street Prophet is my favorite, closely followed by the Butcher.

If I ever score PZ, I'll be able to judge where he ranks. I miss the Buck esthetic for The Dead figures, and I bet he's a lot of fun in that regard.

Yeah man the Street Prophet is bad ass. To me he is the epitome of what a zombie looks like (at least in my humble opinion only). I even bought him a shopping cart and filled it with some garbage.
Everyone who stops by the house absolutely digs it.

 

[devilof76]

Awesome.

barryo actually made some custom chopping blocks for the Butcher. I don't know who has them, but they're supremely worthy accessories. You should check out Anzik's dioramas too.

 

[galactiboy]

I've decided to abandon the line... I've enjoyed them, but I'm running out of room and the zombies are getting the axe.

 

[Phil Sierra]

I received an email today from Sideshow in regards to The Dead 1:6 and I thought I'd share the update with you.

Personally my favorite was always the Security Guard (Subject 5) I had three at one time. Ended up selling one to a fellow Freak (cost) and still have one at work and one at home. It's the only one I'd want in PF still.

I still want a Stealth Patient Zero though.

Given the light-up feature, you're looking at a cool $174.99.

So anyone notice that there is a section for "The Dead" on Sideshow's website, but no subcategory for 1/6 figures. They have 1:1, Vinyl and PFs, but nothing for the line that started it all?

The only way to view previous releases in 1/6 is to scroll through the releases at the top of the page. Doesn't bode well for any future 1/6 releases.
