Subbuteo’s initial attempt at creating a figure that could be assembled and painted by machine resulted in the Zombie figure. However, this figure was poorly received due to its lifeless appearance and the overall sense of cheapness compared to the heavyweight figure. The Zombie figure coexisted alongside the far more popular HW figure until 1981 when the LW figure, superior in every way, finally replaced for both the Zombie and HW figures. So this means Ref 1 -322 are all possible according to information Paul Lloyd has mentioned before That all Teams from Ref 1 – 322 was done on all three figures… even with that Information Some have yet to be spotted according to Peter Upton’s site als Who Knows if any leaked out after Ref 322 like the Hw Range…

Although the Zombie figure was intended to be a machine-printed figure, many references were still hand-painted. Additionally, some teams featured a combination of hand-painted and machine-printed elements. This practice continued into the LW range as well. Some References had Both a Hp and MP version.

The Zombie figure seems to have the least amount of information available with HW and LWs having many Websites dedicated to them compared to the other two figures the Zombie has little to no such pages… This Page Will Hopefully be the most complete Zombie Main Range Section…
