Zombiezz

Zombiezz are a collection of 20 zombie figures produced by Entertoyment based out of Spain. They are distributed in the US by Global Holdings and are currently available at Wal-Mart stores, where you can find them in single, carded packs.

The figures are three inches high. Most of them are made out of a firm green plastic with bold paint applications.  I especially like the black borders around the white eyes. They have four fingers per hand.  Each figure has its own little gimmick.

"Every figure hides a gruesome feature, collect them all to find out what they are!"

Spoiler alert: Along with my photos, I reveal each of their "gruesome" features.  In fact, I have grouped the Zombiezz together based on these features. Let's have a look...

Nurse Moulder, Dead Weight, and Chuckles the Clown. The gimmick with these three is that part of their heads come off to reveal attached (glued in) erasers.  Nurse Moulder is one of only two female Zombiezz. I like the way her legs are sculpted all akimbo.  She's apparently ripped off her left arm and seems to be eating it.  Meanwhile, Dead Weight  has ripped off someone else's left arm. Chuckles stares blankly as he tries to remember what he's supposed to do with that dirty cream pie.

Captain Maggot, Gnarly Dude, and Zombieman.  The "secret" feature here is that the hat or hair comes off to reveal a removable brain-ball.  The brain is pretty much spherical and made of the same pink rubber as the eraserheads.  Captain Maggot is a pretty cool sculpt.  He's got a huge maggot coming out of his eye socket. Gnarly Dude has shoved his skeletal right arm through the head of a fish which has amazingly come right out its mouth.  More amazingly the fish is exactly the same color as his board-shorts.  Zombieman is a superhero who rescues zombies in distress from zombie hunters, I assume.

Ucki Gutsuki, Grandead, and Zombie Rotten.  These guys have magnets on their feet. The magnets are strong enough to hold them upside-down. Here, I've positioned them each on the tip of a pair of scissors. A ninja, an old guy, and a punk rocker with no instrument.  Meh, could have done better.

Sergeant Rot and Tutan-Entombed.  With these two guys, you pop off the tops of their heads and you find ink stamps.  The stamps are brain-shaped circles.  Red ink.  The cop's is one inch across and the mummy's is one-half inch.  I guess his brain is old and shriveled.  Not much else to say.

The Necromancer and Victus Mortuus.  With these two figures, you remove their entire heads to find red-ink markers.  The Necromancer is one of the better sculpts and seems to be a default mascot for the series, as he is the only one pictured on the front of the packaging.  Victus Mortuus is a Roman soldier with a bad back and two Us in his last name.

MC Brains and Slashed. Definitely the coolest gimmick, these two have LED lights inside their translucent heads that light up when you press the buttons on top of their heads. I wonder if Entertoyment knows that there is an actual rapper who goes by MC Brains.  I wonder if MC Brains knows there is a Zombiezz toy with his namesake.  Probably not, either way.  Slashed is clearly named in reference to Slash of GnR though he looks more like Jimmy Hendrix.  I like to think these two are in a rap-metal band called House of Brains.

Chuck Brainguzzler and Magnus Zombiesson. These two are hollow and made of soft rubber. When you squeeze them, their eyes pop out (a little).  Though this is not necessarily the worst gimmick imaginable, they probably end up the worst figures in the series due to the cheap rubber and lack of detail.  I know these toys are cheap, but these two are way crappy cheap.  They are essentially doggy chew toys.

Face Plant and Bill Guts.  Okay, these two have the worst "gruesome feature."  If you had one of them in your hand, you'd try to pull it apart looking for a pen, or an ink stamp, or a ball, or an eraser. You'd check their feet for magnets.  You'd try to squeeze them, and twist them, and bend them. Nothing.  Here's the deal:  While they are made from the exact same plastic as most of the others, they are ever-so-lightly coated with glow-in-the-dark paint.  No, they are not made from GID plastic, they just have a light coating that lets them kinda-sorta slightly glow (just a little).  That's it. That's the secret feature.  What a waste.  Especially with Face Plant.  He's a skater. Hello?  Give him some freakin' wheels, man!

Cindy Innards. In a cheer squad all by herself, he're the final figure. Cindy Innards splits in half head-to-toe, arm-to-arm to reveal her fantastically white skeleton, a weird little heart, and a couple worms. As she was splitting down the middle, she was heard saying, "...Gimmie an I! Gimmie and E! Gimmie a S! No? Uh, well, gimme a Z!  Go ahead and give me another Z!  What's that spell? ZOMBIEZZ!"
