Hi everyone!

 

I'm trying to identify the five minifigures in this picture and I'm guessing this is the right place to go for help.

 

I bought these a week or two ago at Troll and Toad, a comic shop, while I was traveling through London, KY. They are around 2- 2 1/4 inches tall and are made from an only slightly rubbery plastic. The figures were loose and sold individually from a big plastic container on the register.They came in a few different colors: Flesh, clear, and maybe black. I asked the employee working at the shop if they knew anything about them but they did not. Considering that they all seemed new and in good shape I'm wondering if these were ordered through someone like Diamond Distributors in bulk.

 

I picked up one of each of the five different figures I found in the container. They were 99 cents each. Can anyone identify these for me? I'm really curious to learn the name of the line, the manufacturer, and if there are any more in the series.

 

Thanks so much!

You should go back to the comic shop and buy some more and sell them or trade them to me. They don't have any for sale on the site anymore and I never see them on ebay! They are some of the better zombie figures out there for sure.

 First of all: Thanks to everyone! I can't believe I didn't recognize these from October Toys! I have plenty of Mini Gwins, OMFG!, and OTMF! I even looked on their site but apparently had looked in the wrong place.

 

I'd totally go back and snag some more but unfortunately, I live about 6 hours away from the shop. I was on a road trip! I kind of wish I'd bought one of each color as well now!

Thanks, TheRiddler! On my blog I offered a bounty of a special prize to whomever could identify these for me first. Hit me up with a PM or something and I'll send you some random minifigures in the mail if you'd like!

No worries man...I was just joking around really. I would love to get some of the flesh colored ones myself...I've been having a hard time finding them online. I might just try calling the comic shop up!
