Just joined this forum. Couldn't find a place to say "Hello" or introduce myself so I'll just jump in and rant about my newest addiction....
Just got my Xmas present (from myself) Sideshow's "The Dead" Subject 805: Tactical Unit blah blah (longest name for an action figure EVER) ie my newest COOLEST THING EVER!
Yeah I know The Dead have been out for a few years, but I had no idea this series existed till a few weeks ago. I have some Sideshow figures from 8-10 years ago (London After Midnight, Outer Limits, Evil Ash and others) But this is the first Sideshow figure I've gotten in at least 6 years and I'm addicted!
Opened it at a lady-friend's house; picture if you will two 40-somethings fawning over this HIDEOUS zombie like we're little girls with a new dolly! "Oooh look at the cute bloodstains! And his jaw's been ripped off! And the adorable machine-gun! Awww..." She got some awesome pics of it with her fancy new camera...
This isn't a 'Review' per-se, I just wanted to rave about it somewhere. But I did notice the proportions are different from the older Sideshow figures. The 'Evil Ash' figure seems to have an oversize head and stockier build, but I never noticed it till I put him next to the Tactical Containment guy. (You should see him with his headset on!) I cannot overstate the coolness of this horrible little thing; it's hideous and hilarious at the same time! :D
