Valo487 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Ahh skeet skeet skeet skeet skeet!! These look great. I am curious though, zombie Morbius looks like normal Morbius, it seems like a strange choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostisfire Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) F- yeah! A new Morbius! I hope i'm luckier with this one as my ST Michael had paint rubbed off from his face and i had to repaint him. Anyway, it looks like this one has new cape pieces and the color is darker. Ahh skeet skeet skeet skeet skeet!!These look great. I am curious though, zombie Morbius looks like normal Morbius, it seems like a strange choice. Morbius was part of the team sent to defeat the zombies in MZ 4. I would have preffered to get the rest of the team since it consisted of Jeniffer Kale, Man-thing and the Son of Satan but oh well, these look quite good, i have to say. I still have to buy the previous one though as i only have the Skull who had one of his pegs broken.

Ninja Mate Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 YAY! More Zombies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valo487 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Thanks for the info Kostis, I certainly don't mind getting a more docile Morbius, but now that you told me that I really want to see the rest of that team. Man-thing is quickly becoming the nonessential character I want to see DST make the most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man-thing is quickly becoming the nonessential character I want to see DST make the most. Tru (get it? because tru and true sound the same and we're talking about toys...) that. Here's my preffered Midnight Sons through the Ages set: Man-Thing with mini Howard Hellstrom Normal Howard New Ketch Ghost Rider or masked Strange Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valo487 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I'm not saying you are wrong to feel that way at all, but why aren't you interested in these? Just out of curiosity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blacksun1520 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I will be pre-ordering these as soon as Luke has them available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurch77 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 So these would be this year's Halloween ComicFest set? A set of zombie villains each Halloween would be a good tradition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I guess last year's set was a success. Cool beans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigvis497 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I'm not saying you are wrong to feel that way at all, but why aren't you interested in these? Just out of curiosity. Because I've never found the Marvel Zombies gimmick interesting. I'll refer to it as a gimmick because it's not a story, and before anyone tells me what happened in such and such issues, I have read the majority of the mini-series and stand by my opinion. I just don't see any appeal in "look, LULZ, Zombies!" I want some substance in the stories that I read and I just find this kind of stuff to be targeting the lowest possible denominator of comic readers. To me it's barely a step above poorly written fanfic. YMMV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombie Shakespeare Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I actually didn't care for the comics very much, but I really like the idea of getting zombie Marvel characters. Kingpin looks like my favorite of this bunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Morbius is already undead so his lack of zombification is understandable. I'm wondering if Doom's armor will be flat grey or metallic. (Hail Ivan!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valo487 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I understand what they were going for now, but when I first read the description it said zombie Morbius and I was puzzled why he looked exactly the same. If anything, this version is a lot more calm. Zombification appeared to agree with him. I can understand anyone who doesn't really like the zombie versions of these characters, but to me since I like zombies and I like these characters as well, I guess I look at it as these variations are a lot more interesting than some of the ones we've seen in the past. Plus I suspect it gives DST a chance to get more use out of molds that probably wouldn't be able to be reused for a lot of characters, like the Kingpin.

karamazov80 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Yeah, it's funny he's called "zombie Morbius" since a vampire is already a kind of zombie. Looks like a pretty cool set but I doubt I'll buy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I hope that new Morbius looks like that. I really dig his face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Additup Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I'm not that crazy about the zombie versions of figures, although I do have them, but I like that kingpin. I'm thinking head swap and it looks like he got his hands dirty with an incompetent underling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RACIST!vampires aren’t a kind of zombie any more than zombies are a kind of vampire, they’re both a kind of UNDEAD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whywing Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Will definitely be buying this set! Hopefully it comes with awesome accessories like the other box set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goods4life Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Morbius is already undead so his lack of zombification is understandable. I'm wondering if Doom's armor will be flat grey or metallic. (Hail Ivan!) They look fun to me but I am sad they can't zombify the heroes anymore. Thats half the fun haveing the good guys bad. Darn you Mickey Mouse!!!

Shogi Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I think I'm only interested in Morbius and that's just to have a spare head for my Morbius and to use the wings for Batman Beyond. Marvel Zombies is one of the few properties I haven't bought any figures for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
