Crawling Zombie by OTHERLAND TOYS LTD.

Zombies: yucky, smelly, leprous undead. Shoot ‘em, and they keep coming. Chop off an arm, and they keep coming. In this case, take off their whole lower half ... they keep coming! This legless, lifeless battery operated denizen of the dead world says things such as “Hey, slow down, would ya? I can only crawl so fast!” and “I can’t feel my legs!” A group of 8- to 10-year-old kids simply seeing the picture of this horror show all wanted one — “I’m gonna put it in my sister’s bed!” — and immediately began pretending they, too, were zombies. 8/2/2007 (Price: $38.90) [Add to my Inquiry Basket][?]
