About this project

It’s coming… the ZOM horde!!! And it’s going to be the cutest zombie apocalypse ever.

Until now, ZOMs have all been hand-sewn and only available for sale at conventions, art galleries, and on Etsy. But the demand for these plushy little brain-eaters is starting to turn epidemic.

"What can I do?" you ask.

Pre-order here to support the first commercial run of ZOMs and get one (or more) of the first edition, most highly collectible ZOMs ever!


Once we've reached the first-level goal of $5000, we’re ready to start production on a batch of “Horace” dolls, the first ZOM I ever created. So pre-order one or ten or more, or make it personal and order a custom ZOM. You’re account will be debited only when the kickstarter ends and we have reached the goal. Then when your ZOM arrives, you can report your precious little bundle of horror on the ZOM Outbreak tracking map at zoms.com, and watch the epidemic spread from the relative safety of your home.

Select one of the four pre-order possibilities listed to the right (prices include S&H) and help yourself to the first, most highly collectible, ZOMs ever!!!

As a good, upstanding citizen, of wherever you may be, it is your duty to report this outbreak, and any further trouble, uh, that is, "hi-jinx", your ZOM may get into. Good luck.

ZOM yourself! ZOM a friend! Whatever ZOM you have in mind, get it out of there. Your brain is the very worst place to keep it. Preorder your own fully handmade ZOM based on your design requests. It can look like you or like someone you know, someone you love, or someone you only like as a friend.

Connected as Rick Marson (341 friends)

Rick Marson, much like MC Hammer, is a super dope homeboy from the Oaktown, and likes to tell people so. People are usually embarrassed for him, but you probably think it's a cool and interesting fact. Rick doesn't live there anymore though. He moved away when he was three.

As a child Rick wanted to be the next Walt Disney, a cartoonist and theme park owner. Later he decided that he would rather be a comic book writer and artist. Then he went to college to get a degree in fine art. Instead he got a degree in graphic design, and became a web designer for 8 years.

After taking some time off to travel, he began working on ideas for video games, which led to the whole ZOMs idea.

Rick is a fan of books, movies, video games, comics, zombies, and writing about himself in third person.
