Do you use personalities that many would recognize as objectives in your zombie games? Say a famous politician, a TV or movie star?
1) Even zombies have standards, some things just aren't edible.
2) Wow, what a great idea! I just might use that one next time.
3) I can't wait till the zombie horde gets those jersey shore dimwits.
4) Zardoz!
5) Boobies!
6) Who cares. Those TV celebs are already zombies, just shot em and be done with it.
7) Who is the dope who ordered in SWAT to save the Kardashians.
8) Bleh, meh, whatever.

Does someone make a Bill Murray figure?

If you look closely, in this pic youŽll see Shaggy, Fred and Scooby Doo in the upper left corner that were supposed to be save in this Zombie game. I believe Fred was eaten….

The two girls (Velma and Whatshername) were hiding in another building.

I use a lot of celebrities, mostly as survivors. In the same game youŽll find Lara Croft, Whistler, the guy from The Mummy and a few South Park kids.

Not exactly zombie games, but I have a FIW scenario called "Rescue Demi Moore".

I don't care about celebrities in the real world, so have even less desire to wipe them off into my gaming.

We used mussolini as an objective in a zombie game …

Oddball17 May 2012 9:49 a.m. PST

That is a great idea. Never thought about it before. I've got a bunch of movie character figures, but just used them to add cool minis to the game.

Broadsword17 May 2012 9:56 a.m. PST

I have a celeb zombie and a few "famous" survivors. Does that count?

No, but I've got a few Zeds that are recognizable celebrities & the players who put 'em down get extra points toward their victory conditions.

Rogues117 May 2012 9:57 a.m. PST

Double Tap for celeb's too…I've got a bunch of different characters including figures painted as my friends and family members (both as victims and Zombies). Wife was not amused by her image as a Zombie, son loved it, daughters were focused on the dress color they were wearing:
Daughter: "I would never go out in a dress like that"
Dad: "You're a zombie looking for brains you don't care"
Daughter: "Dad you don't get it"
Dad: "You're right, they will catch me first at the Apocolypse, while you are deciding on what to wear"
This is my fate. Eric, if I turn take me down quickly.

Though I could be persuaded to try either zombie celebrities for bonus points or the occasional clueless 'my fans are here to see me!' type…

Saving the Zombie Partridge Family and converting them back to , um, "normal" humanity has been a feature of my more twisted games.

That's sexy zombie Shirley Partridge in the hot pants and go-go boots. This horde includes a zombie Reuben Kincaid (manager).

I'd like to get an Ozzy Zombie figure, but wonder if you could tell the difference between the before and after stages?

No seriously, 8. Don't care for zombies, period, although I did spend some time just yesterday having my Hammers and Rhino slap some Blutkreuz Zombies around in Dust Warfare ("my" as in "in my force" since I was the Allied player of the game, none of the miniatures we played with were mine). No celebrities were involved as such although Rhino obviously inspired Elvis Presley's famous hairdo in that particular alt history scenario.

Now I have to figure out …. who…

How about Sean Penn for starters
