"Land of the Dead" Collectible Figures from SOTA

Dread Central recently reported that SOTA Toys will include four Land of the Dead characters as part of their ongoing Now Playing line, which has featured insanely detailed versions of unforgettable cult classic characters such as The Toxic Avenger, a Killer Klown from Outer Space, Darkman, and more.
