So... Time to talk about Zombie Lab. I was an avid fan from the start - what is there not to like about highly detailed and articulated 1:18 scale zombies and survivors?
Well as it turns out - a few things. I bought a "Jack" civillian figure and noticed a few issues straight away and I'll list them below.
>The figure is painted in it's colours, not molded like BF or Marauders
>The joints are painted over which means they are stiff, prone to snapping and once paint has worn off you get the base plastic colour shining through (wrists and shoulders are the worst)
>Skin tone looks like shit. no kidding. It's not human, it's cardboard coloured which is weird as fuck.
>the guns that came with him are *obvious* copies of marauder guns without the customisation like moving stocks or removable sights / surpressors
>Needed to shave the inner elbows and pecs down to get any kind of decent rifle shouldering poses which makes the figure look dumb without a combat vest on
That being said, I like the design of the shirt / jeans and I weathered mine up and swapped a few parts around to make him usable in a post apoc Dio / squad.
Feels good to get my customising mojo back.. just don't get me started on the ZL facebook page or Locker "fuck the customer" Toys.. lol
