Hey Gang,
Took some quick pictures of the JoeCon exclusive Zombie Initiative Set. Here's a quick review: The good - Really dig Ozone more than I thought I would; love, Love, LOVE the fact that Colton comes with Megatron! I also like the fact that the heads are painted on both sides of Clean Sweep & The Zombie/Viper head. The Bad - Quality Control! One of my Zombies is/was missing a helmet, my Clean Sweep has a paint scratch on his face...argh! The Ugly - Clean Sweep's mask doesn't really fit all that well.

Great Pics!
My biggest complaint is that they painted the backs of the heads instead of giving two separate heads for the Toxo Viper. The red visor just doesn't look right under the helmet since there is no chin. I also like Ozone more than I thought. I didn't realize that gun is Megatron. Thanks for pointing that out. Great little addition.

My only gripe is that the Toxo Vipers all have one zombie arm. I don't want three Zombie Vipers. I suppose a little paint will take care of that.
I give the club props for making double sided heads. The backpack on Clean Sweep in not familiar to me. What other kreons have it? |

I love the megaton...that is a must have...
I heard they made a lot less of this years set...was it 500 or 600 only? that's pretty rare |

Thanks so much for the detailed, clear photos of this set! I didn't realize the zombie heads were 2-sided. It looks funny without a helmet, but some Cityville heads will fill-in fine. And since customization is inherent in Kre-O, spare non-zombie arms for the ToxoVipers would've been really cool. But I like this set a lot; it makes the 2013 set look like a knock-off.

Aren't the air tanks connected to the helmet or was that only with Torpedo from wave 1?
Awesome images. Good try on the Toxo Vipers, Club. They really needed extra left arms, though, if they are supposed to be both vipers and zombies. The chin gap is odd, but points for effort. Might have made more sense to do the red block on the front side and the back could have just had the top of the mouth at the bevel. Might have looked like the zombie was opening it's mouth. Really weird backpack for the Toxo Zombies.
