The Tarman - Toy Update

Arguably one of the most recognizable zombies outside of the Romero clan, Tarman is finally making his way to your toy shelf.  Unfortunately, he's been delayed until February of next year.  While this is sad news to many of us, it isn't necessarily a bad thing.  I'll take a delay over a shoddy finished product any day.

Tarman is being brought to us by Amok Time toys who are also responsible for the Bub action figure as well as a 12" Cemetery Zombie.  Amok Time is unique as they seem to create some of the more obscure movie characters from out past such as Blacula and Elvira. 

I had the pleasure of meeting the President of Amok Time, Paul Lazo, at Steel City Con a few months back.  Paul is a great guy and because he's a collector too, I trust that we will have a great figure in the near future.

For the record... YES, we will have Tarman available in the Zombie Toy Store!

  3. I'm saving my pennies!!! Must have him!
    "Return of the Living Dead" is my all-time fav zombie movie. The catalyst for my obsession, if you will.

  5. This damn figure has been delayed for literally years. I have it pre-ordered and every time I check the Amok site, the release date is pushed back another few months. WTF
