Created by Ed Long and Damien Glonek back in 1998, Living Dead Dolls are little dolls who died in an assortment of creative ways, and come packaged in coffins for you to enjoy, complete with death certificates. They are distributed by Mezco Toyz, and to date, there are over twenty series, not counting the Exclusives and Fashion Victims. A complete listing of the dolls can be found in the Archive section of the official website.
