Zombie Rubber Chicken now for sale!

Finally got around to getting these made, I came up with the idea a couple months ago and was just waiting to have the free time to get it sculpted and moulded.

This here is the very first one from the mould, turned out pretty decently. There were a few defects, but since it's so messed up looking anyway, you don't really notice them and they can be just considered to be some random blemishes amongst the several standard other ones.



It's meant to be pretty much the regular old rubber chick prop but a zombie version. I wanted it to be simple to crank out so I tinted the latex a greenish colour. I'll be doing up several small batches of tinted latex so as not to ruin a whole pile of it, so the colour might differ a little from batch to batch.

They'll be $20, same price as what I've seen the regular rubber chicken sold for. And it's pretty much the same size, about 18 1/2 inches from beak to toe.

The blood splattering on it can be done to order. This particular one wasn't too overly bloodied up, just enough. So if you want your Zombie Rubber Chicken to be especially bloodied or perhaps not so much, just ask.- no extra charge.

I'm just turning them out from the one mould, although I've made a master from which I can turn out several more should I end up being (hopefully) swamped with orders. Right now there's about a days turnaround for each one, I'll try to be stockpiling them a bit so there's no delays.

They're no in the online shop just yet, waiting to get a better image done up, but if you're interested you can order on, just send an email to foxhenderson @ themonkeyrodeo.com.

One more push for the Moonshine of the Damned Fundraiser.

We're well underway with filming on the movie now, most of the FX are taken care of - however, there's still room and time for more, the more money we have the more FX get put in the movie, and that's where you come in. Instead of donations, we're selling some of the props, and related items, being made specifically for the project. What kind of stuff? Here's some pictures, because reading about this stuff is only so much fun.

 Fake Chicken Foot.

Zombie Finger Puppet.

Partially Eaten Brain Keychain.

Severed Zombie Heads.

A Latex Zombie Mask.

Think if it more as a simple retail transaction rather than a donation. Since I'm making all this stuff, it's easy to sell it for close to what I would at a retail price. Everything is limited edition as well, some are available in fewer quantities than others and prices range from $10 to $40, depending on what you want.

And what do you get in return? Well, the item or items you bought, a thanks in the final credits and a chance to win some of the larger props being made for the movie. Right now I'm still making stuff so I'm unsure of what exactly those pieces will be. I'm aiming for 3 prizes, one of which is this:

The Spiked Zombie Head Mace. This one here pictured is the one that will be featured in the movie, and I'm planning on selling only 10 of them afterwards at $150 each. They're extremely time consuming to make because it's 10 separate pieces which all have to be cleaned up, assembled and finally painted.
