Teased here a couple of months back, the official, 2000ad licensed “Zombo” figure from Retroband and Unbox Industries will be making a limited debut during international Comic Book Day today (5/2)! Based on the human-zombie hybrid originally created by Al Ewing and Henry Flint, the character – a star of his own series in 2000AD that ran until 2013 – has been redesigned by Retroband’s Aaron Moreno and digitally sculpted by the team at Unbox. Standing at around 3.75″ tall, the vinyl action figure has been produced in a mix of “blank” classic and blue GID for this first run, with a fully painted and blister carded version planned for general release soon after. Unfortunately only available in the UK, the GID Zombos will be touching down at London’s Forbidden Planet later on today for an undisclosed sum… Look out for more on the official release over the coming weeks!
