I'm not sure how well the Airport, Flyboy and Krishna zombie figures sold but it seems a shame to get the rights to a great property like Dawn and then only put out three figures while stuff like Pirates of the Carribean gets dozens. I guess that answers my own question, they must not have sold that well. Here is the link that discusses it...

"Collectors take note that Cult Classic series 6 had a short run with their ‘Dawn of the Dead’ Hare Krishna Zombie. So pay attention and look for this rarity right now before it is gone. Fans of ‘Dead' series should also note that this is the last of the Dawn of the Dead figures Neca will be doing."

There are so many more potential figures to do, and I distinctly remember some photos from a convention that showed a prototype box set that Fran would come in, with extra outfits. Oh well, at least we got what we got. :(

Browse your local Spencers and/or Hot Topic, sometimes they have older stuff in stock. If not, eBay is the way to go.

Yep. The Spencers closed in one of our malls here recently and I don't think I have gone there since.
