Monroeville Zombies 12 Inch Cop Figure…

Published

on

Time and Space Toys, LLC is pleased to announce the launch of its Monroeville Zombies project, which will premiere at the HorrorFind Weekend convention in the Baltimore/Washington, DC-area next week, with an exclusive 12″ Zombie Cop Action Figure (aka Officer Kane Heinz). The Zombie Cop will be the first of several 12″ zombie action figures, at 1/6 scale, to be released throughout the year at various venues. Read on for more info and a look.
A limited number of only fifty Monroeville Zombies 12″ Zombie Cop figures will be produced and available at the show. This individually numbered, limited edition figure, manufactured by Peril Unlimited, is fully poseable, with real cloth clothing and detailed police accessories. The figure has two layers of production. After being factory-produced and painted in China, the figures are transferred to the United States for more work. A special, secondary paint application gives the figures a very realistic textured look, and special distressing of the clothing gives them that perfect worn-and-torn zombie look. This launch figure will be the most limited of all the Monroeville Zombies figures.

Decades ago, the modern horror film was created with a tale of zombies laying siege to a shopping mall in Monroeville, Pennsylvania. While the film was fiction, its following was and continues to be very real. Monroeville Zombies is a new project based on the concept that life (and in this case, death too) imitates art. What happens when zombie fans and real zombies collide? The Monroeville Zombies project tells that story and parodies both the survival horror genre and its fandom.

“We are thrilled to launch the Monroeville Zombies 12″ action figure line with our very limited edition figure, Zombie Officer Kane Heinz,” says Time and Space Toys President Kevin Kriess. “Officer Heinz joined the hordes of the living dead while attempting to secure the mall in a now-classified security incident within the tale of Monroeville Zombies. He’s a great zombie character that fits right in with other 1/6 scale lines in need of extra ghouls”.
