    Shaun of the Dead Munny play | Comments Off
    Straight out of one of my favorite zombie movies comes this Shaun of the Dead Munny custom vinyl figure by hefnatron.

The cricket bat to was the perfect finishing touch for the Shaun of the Dead figure, and the style and finish of all 3 of the Munnies are fantastic. Check out the pics after the jump.

There's a KidRobot forum thread over here if you want more info. Back to the release of GTA IV though, why is there no Wii version? I like to play GTA, I also like to point my Wiimote and shoot stuff.... doesn't this seem like a good combination? I guess I'll just be content getting my tail handed to me in Worms: A Space ...
