Zombeez

These little zombies are called Zombeez. That's two Z's, two E's. Despite the unique spelling, the internet has nothing to say about them.  Luckily, I bought them new (at Spencer's Gifts) sometime in 2012, so here's what I can tell you about these boldly painted resin figures....

The first twelve figures are 1.25 inches tall.  They came packaged as the pairs that I have pictured. They initially had very short loops of string screwed into their heads potentially making them charms, zipper pulls, or cell phone danglers.  However, the strings were too short to loop the figures through, so the best you could have done was hang them on a hook or something similar. Also, as resin figures, they're rather heavy for their size and also prone to breaking easily if you were to, say, drop on the sidewalk.  While resin takes a nice hard paint job, it is not an ideal material to make something that is designed for use. Needless to say, I took off the silly strings pretty much as soon as I got them out of the packages.

The last two zombies are 1.75 inches tall and were not packaged in any way.  They began as resin keychains. Though there may have been more of the keychain-sized figures made in this line, I know that the smaller figures make a complete set of twelve. This is confirmed by the "collect them all" checklist on the original packaging.  Speaking of which -- I have the cardbacks around here somewhere and will add an image whenever I find them.   Meanwhile, here's the ZOMBEEZ!
