Guys,

A few of you have seen the new life like bleeding Zombies from the USA on you tube. There has also been some threads started on how cool they look and questions on whether they'd ever be allowed down here etc etc. It seems that some gun shops have the Zombie bug and are selling numerous Zombie oriented merchandise. Well I've imported the first life like ones ever in Australia and have started a you tube channel called "ozziereviews" which shows a video of one being shot with the new Hornady Zombie Max ammo. Due to the size of these Zombies, the shipping was $300 from the USA, not cheap, but I really wanted to show that we too can have fun down here. If there is enough interest I'd like to continue with the channel and provide some decent reviews of firearms and equipment that is applicable to Australia. Anyhow heres the video for those of you interested in a bit of light hearted humour...

Thanks guys. It was just a bit of light humour to kick off the channel with. I'll assess the feedback and look at getting some decent reviews completed in upcoming weeks.

Zombie's + lever action shot gun = awesome
This is a good thing your trying to do. we need more ozzie's on youtube with real reviews on wepons we can aquire.

[marty]

Isnt that how the yanks got him, straight through the eye, thumbs up buddy.

[Morgo]

Nice one mate Though at $300 plus the product cost I don't think there will be too many people buying them here

[Shelldrake (TC)]

Lol nice!! Good on ya mate

Yeah $US 296 for shipping on 3x zombies... It's a lot but I wanted to be able to say I was able to do it... I'll look at doing more in depth review on them. You can shoot them 100s of times before they're destroyed, so there is some value in them and the company is making wild boar and coyote bleeding targets, so it adds a bit of fun to it all.

[Crrrock]

Import? pfffftt .... just need to go to McQuarie street when parliament is sitting.
Plenty of real Zombies there.
But funny Utube presentation.
+1 for your effort

just sayin'

[gutim]

group buy?


anyone think the SSAA will let you put one down range

The company has a discount with Fedex and that's who delivered them to me however I'd be keen to get some rates on sea mail. Sure it'd be 2-3 months but I'm sure for the cost of $300 you'd get a lot more sent for that... Not sure about the SSAA on using them on their ranges :-) At the end of the day, seriously, what harm is it? It's simply enjoying the sport and having some silly humour...

[vman]

Nah the SSAA would have an anxiety attack if you were to take one of those to their range.

Kudos for spending the big bucks on such a target... all in good fun ey.

[AirborneCalavry]

haha nice work getting those into Australia, they would be fun to shoot and nice work on the YouTube Video. +1 from me.

would love to shoot one of those but they are a pretty penny and just can't justify the funds at the moment. Maybe one day

once again good work

Thats not too bad for three I thought you mean't $300 shipping for just one
Makes it tempting to do a group buy sometime

Yeah, I'm thinking more along the line of sea mail, 2-3 months delivery time but a hell of a lot cheaper. A container of zombies... now that could be an interesting start to a new YouTube video!

A few motors, wheels and cables and you could have a whole lot of fun

Guys... I made it on to zombie industries website. Australia is now on the map!

Check it out!

Website link

[The Muss]

Nice one brother

Still bloody well over priced though

[OzzieReviews]

Yeah, the postage is terrible, but I think the zombies are reasonable considering you can shoot them several hundred times. Well I'm aiming to put Australia more on the map with future reviews etc so I'm pleased with this start.

[maxim0200]

Good job!

Can you imagine the reaction from tye grumpy RO's at silverdale...
(fun is not allowed there)

[Urban Conquest]

keep me posted if you do another buy, defiantly need a nazi zombie

[ReconScout]

Shouldn't be too hard to make yourself, with a quick body cast and some cans of expanding foam. Might have to give it a try.

[HITMAN45]

cool i wont one

[gutim]

Id buy one if another order goes through

[twodogs]

I ordered one 6 months ago, and cancelled the order when the girl (danica?) emailed me to say postage had increased to something well over $100 per item. ($160 from memory). At that time there was one at least in Aus already, featuring on their website getitng attacked by an emu.

I ordered the osama bin laden model.

Haaa haaa that's funny, Yeah lets get em. This is what we use on ZOMBIES in Queensland

[Wilkes]

Just bought the Ka-Bar Zombie Killer "Famine Tanto"

Beautiful knife... Practical and a bit of fun!

[chrisloft]

When i imported mine it was the "chris" model and i think postage was like 80- bcuks! Lasted ages with the 223 and such as we kept patching it up with foam filler until the remington 870 got unleashed one day ahaaaa

Check ebay guys, about 140 per zombie posted

We really do need more ozzie's with these sorts of reviews.... would also assist the advertising of the popularity of the sport....

I've got a few firearm reviews in the process at the moment. I've only been able to do a couple of equipment/apparel reviews so far but more will come. My aim is to promote the shooting sports and get the info out there to as many people as possible. Sure there will be critics, but that's life. So long as the general population want to see more, then ozziereviews will continue...

[Pink_Mist]

Cool video mate, will sub to your channel for sure. Must support fellow Aussie youtubers

Although we all know it was filmed in the spirit of light humour just be cautious of shooting at any humaniod tagets (zombie or otherwise) here in australia. We all are aware of the genuine reasons why we own and shoot firearms and self defence isnt one of them sadly.

Other than that I enjoyed it and look forward to seeing more videos mate

Goddamit !!! didn't SEAL TEAM 6 get Osama ????
