I was just about to order a 12 pack from EE and called and they are now out of stock...I've said it before and will say it again...the distribution sucks on these


Damn, either they got very few in or a lot of people jumped on them. Yeah, trying to track these down has been frustrating for most it seems.

Ironmask, you've made me extra impatient for my set to arrive! Estimated delivery not until Thursday, argh.

I had a zombie encounter today. :o

All you Chicago people, head to the Washington/State Loop store. I've gone to like 6 Walgreens downtown and that's the only one I saw some at. There was one box of them in the Easter aisle, right across from the Easter candy. The box was still mostly full.

I agree with what others have been saying, these are especially cool when you see them in person! Finding them was a nice taster before my 12 pack arrives.

You will have to report back with which ones you get! I bought 3 and I already got a double unfortunately--2 Decayin' Doms and 1 King Guts.

guess the odds for doubles in the wave 1 blind packs are high, because they only have 8 sculpts total packed into those blind packs for wave 1

Nice! Seems like all of us who have bought any of these single packs have gotten King Guts. Neil Armgone's one of my favorites too.

I love King Guts. He is my 2nd favorite in the first wave, behind the Mike Tyson one.

Still, the real thing, is waiting for the retail multipacks to hit the store shelves. When those start popping up, we'll start seeing wave 2 around.

They need to do something about the chase figures though. I hope they either adjust the packaging of the blind packs or not include them at all. There were already some crushed boxes when I grabbing mine and if they include chase figures in these fairly easy box to peek into boxes, then there will always be crushed boxes and no chases, I would imagine.

Jeez, apparently a lot can happen in a few hours. When I went over lunch all the boxes pretty much looked pristine.

Decayin' Dom is great. Love Tarman zombie from Return of the Living Dead.


I love how most of the sculpts are such obvious references to pop culture.

Tarman for sure.

The pirate is a dead on Jack Sparrow.

Mike Biteson is pretty damn obvious.

The karate kid.

If we tried we could probably list them all.


I neeeeeeed the dead superman zombie so very bad.

The 12er arrived a day earlier than estimated, woohoo! SO worth the $10.99, if anyone is thinking of ordering from Entertainment Earth when they're back in stock.

Posted Image

One interesting thing I did notice is that my single-pack King Guts has tiny numbers on his back while my 12-pack one doesn't. The only other figure with the the numbers is Decayin' Dom, on both the single-pack and 12-pack versions (underneath his can).

I have a few different sculpts with the printed numbers. They appear to be all the same.

Nice grab fkro6784 indeed! The price is right.

Hope to find some in stotre in Canada; I had started getting some Trash Pack guys, but since I can't find any around my place it cooled my interest a bit.

I agree with what others have been saying, these are especially cool when you see them in person! Finding them was a nice taster before my 12 pack arrives.

Thanks for the heads-up. The bad news is that I grabbed the last five at that location. The good news is that there is a nearly full display case (17 of 18 coffins) at the Walgreens on the corner of Wells/Madison. In the normal toy section on the right side of the very bottom shelf. No price tag but they are the usual $1.99 a piece.

Of the 6 that I bought, I already have 2 doubles (and no King Guts). And none of them include my favorite Neil Armgone. :( It also looks like the only blind boxed figures are the same 8 that are "extra' if you buy a large coffin and the four 3packs. Which is to say that now that my thirst has been semi-quenched, I won't be buying any more blind boxes....

As for the figures, they are amazingly awesome and detailed and everything I wanted them to be. Love them.

Glad you were able to get some. I was pretty shocked to see them sitting there after going to a bunch of Walgreens before that with no luck.

I hear ya about being done with the blind packs, for series one at least. Once you get a hold of the 12 pack or even the 3 packs there's really no need to get the single packs since they contain the same figures.

I have to say, I wasn't majorly excited after first seeing the pictures of these but now that I have them my opinion is totally different. I think they are awesome and I hope the line continues for many series.
