Those are some interesting concepts. It would have done Hasbro well to release them being zombie's are all the rage still.

I'm a zombie fan, although getting slightly burned out with the influx of everything zombie.

I never understood the fascination that some G.I. Joe fans have with Zombies. I mean...why? What do zombies have to do with G.I. Joe? I am asking this as a serious question. To each their own of course, but why...for a few years now there has been zombie this and that all over Joe boards, not just the Tank...just curious. THey look like cool figs.....I just don't get the connection.

Agreed but also based on what is requested in thier surveys too. We got night force and python patrol thus far that people wanted. I would like to see the Plague vipers released myself.

Hasbro, Release the ZOMBIES!

... as an Internet exclusive only, please. No need to clog the pegs with these things. I'd grab a set or two though.

after retaliation hasbro should do a GI JOE: Attack of the Zombies! line...with rad zombie font plastered across the card.

it would be a great opportunity to put a zombie fighting team together of figures like:

concept case Gung Ho, Leatherneck, Beachhead, Flint, Hit N Run

Some folks really like zombies. Hell, they're one of the few sci-fi flavors I can tolerate in my Joeverse.

As to what they have to do with G.I. Joe, you need only look at the '92 Toxo-Zombie. Precedent set.

Zombies, I'll buy everyone I see. Period.

Agreed. The zombie pack isn't a must have for me over the bulk of the other concept vault figures Leatherneck and Gung Ho being my top two as well, but the zombies are well done and I would definitely buy a few sets. I'd give away the Storm Shadows though as in my Joe Universe he would never get infected, CC maybe but never Storm Shadow.
