Here is another House of the Dead figure by now defunct Palisades Toys. The House of the Dead action figure line was based off the hit arcade games of the same name. This is the Axe-throwing “Johnny” zombie. I believe this was a Suncoast variant that has headshot aftermath. Here’s Johnny!

I had a request for some pictures from the House of the Dead action figure line from Palisades. This was a great action figure line that was a great companion to the Palisades Resident Evil figure line. Here are pictures of the masked and claw-bearing zombie Ken. I was goofing off with the camera and I turned on the [...]
