Meet Angry Zombkin, the Perfect Pumpkin-Headed Zombie Toy to Preorder This Halloween
Halloween is a time for pumpkins, and a time for zombies. But besides Sam from Trick ‘r Treat, rarely do the two combine into one vegetable of a humanoid both metaphorical and literal. How do you take out the brain of one of the walking dead when its head is already “squashed”? (Hint: Billy Corgan probably knows what to do).
Angry Zombkin, from Ashley Wood’s Adventure Kartel – essentially an IP to create designer toys with, as best I can tell – is up for preorder now, which means that, perhaps awkwardly, he’ll be showing up in February, maybe just in time for Valentine’s Day. If you can find someone who appreciates that fact, however, you’ll know he or she is The One.
