Dawn of the Dead Boxed Set

Summary

Hmm…Significant within the Mezco One:12 Collective line, the Dawn of the Dead Boxed Set features iconic representations of the Flyboy Zombie and the Plaid Shirt Zombie from George A. Romero’s classic film, showcasing meticulous attention to detail in both sculpt and paint applications. The figures capture the essence of their on-screen appearances, including authentically styled clothing and unique facial sculpts, contributing to their status as celebrated horror icons despite limited accessories. While the set's articulation offers potential for dynamic poses, the stiff joints and restrictive clothing may hinder more expressive displays, highlighting a balance between aesthetic fidelity and playability.

Pros!

  • Includes two iconic characters from Dawn of the Dead: Flyboy and Plaid Shirt Zombie
  • Highly detailed, screen-accurate cloth costumes with blood stains and damage reflecting the film
  • Impressive hand-painted skin tones and weathering with realistic blood and gore effects
  • Over 28 points of articulation tailored to zombie-like sluggish and broken movement
  • Unique one-piece head/neck sculpt on Flyboy to capture his trademark twisted neck pose
  • Interchangeable hands including posing hands for varied zombie stances
  • Collector-friendly packaging themed after the original movie poster

Cons!

  • Flyboy’s pistol does not fit securely in hand, limiting realistic holding poses
  • Limited ankle articulation due to bulky wedge boots affects natural zombie stance without stand
  • Mid-torso articulation is restricted, limiting torso lean and tilt poses
  • Minimal accessories beyond the pistol and stands; no additional zombie effects or weapons
  • Some minor paint inconsistencies on forehead marks and blood detailing on Plaid Shirt Zombie’s clothing
  • Hands lack detailed sculpting and pose options compared to other figures in the line
  • Stiff joints make movement difficult, increasing the risk of detaching limbs during posing

Product Description

“When there’s no more room in Hell, the dead walk the Earth.”

The One:12 Collective Dawn of the Dead Boxed Set includes two of the most recognizable undead corpses in cinematic history: Flyboy and Plaid Shirt Zombie.

Flyboy Zombie, also known as Stephen Andrews, is cornered by the living dead while trying to escape through an elevator shaft. Now joining the forces of the infected, Flyboy is outfitted in blood stained clothing – a button down workmen’s shirt, belt, workmen’s pants, and wedge work boots. He comes equipped with his signature pistol from the iconic scene in the film.

Straight from the original Dawn of the Dead movie poster, Plaid Shirt Zombie is presented in a distressed flannel shirt exposing his rotting flesh, jeans, and work boots.

Both zombies clawed their way into the public consciousness from their appearance in George A. Romero’s groundbreaking horror film, Dawn of the Dead, where a group takes refuge to make humanity’s last stand against a horde of zombies swarming the U.S. Although their actual screen time was fleeting, their influence on pop culture is long-lasting. Life-size figures of the two characters flanked the entrance to the Monroeville Zombies Museum in the Monroeville Mall, the primary shooting location of the film.
