Zombie Art Project by Mikie Graham

Halloween is creeping up and our old friend Zombiemonkie (aka Mikie Graham) has been hard at work in his basement studio, toiling away day and night on his newest creation the "Zombie Art Project."

Mikie explains:
"The Zombie Art Project has been in the works for a very long time now. I started working on custom Playmobil zombies over 3 years ago when after buying a friend's toy collection I found myself with a bag of extra Playmobil people.

They were so cute and family friendly that I just had to turn them into something horrific! After zombiefying my first pair I realized how fun and cathartic they were to make and I began to produce these mini horrors for fun as a distraction while working on larger more detailed toys. As the years past my army grew.... until this year when I found that I had about 20 complete. I realized that with a little extra work I could have enough for every day of October and Z.A.P. was born."

This awesome set of 65 figures holds tons of surprises, including 4 "outbreak survivors," multiple "celebrity zombies," one playset, and enough humorous gore to make even the most jaded Horror fan smile. Figure pairs will range in price between $30 and $60 depending on the cost of the original figure and amount of work involved.

All zombies are hand-painted and in most cases have added hand sculpted details in order to complete their custom zombifacation. To top it all off, each pair of Z.A.P. figures comes housed in their own 6" wooden coffin that has been hand-stained and painted with a bloody red Z.A.P. logo!

To check out the Zombie Art Project head over to http://zombiemonkie.com/ EVERY day of October for a daily dose of gory zombie goodness.
We will be revealing 7-8 new zombies a week leading up the the mystery reveal of the playset ON Halloween day, So make sure to check back weekly for your regular zombie update.
