Triskaidekaphobics beware, in 2011 the Living Dead Dolls celebrate their 13th anniversary.

What started as a late night endeavor in the bowels of New Jersey, has grown into the world’s best selling and longest continually running line of collectible, horror-themed specialty dolls. In addition to over 20 regular series and more than12 series of [amazon_link id=”B0035L5NWG” target=”_blank” ]Mezco Toyz Living Dead Dolls Alice In Wonderland Figure Sadie as Alice[/amazon_link] Presents, [amazon_link id=”B003F9Y0ZE” target=”_blank” ]Mezco Toyz Living Dead Dolls Vampire Series 19 Haemon[/amazon_link] have successfully been translated into dolls, mini figures, plush, board games, trading cards, apparel, barware and costumes.

We’ve had many memorable moments with the Living Dead Dolls; our successful art show, our Living Dead Dolls In Wonderland book, numerous magazine articles, as well as radio interviews and much more, and we are very excited to be able to celebrate our 13th anniversary with LDD.”

The Living Dead Dolls are unique not only because of their creativity but because of their fiercely loyal, almost fanatical fan base. Each series of Living Dead Dolls is a limited edition, and every series made has sold out. Fans around the globe fill message boards and chatrooms hoping to glean whatever news they can on upcoming releases and information on released editions. Loyal completist fans have even set up a worldwide network of collectors that help ship country specific exclusives to each other. It is this lovingly obsessive behavior that has grown the Living Dead Dolls from a regional curiosity into a best selling, globe covering juggernaut.

Mezco is pulling out all the stops to celebrate the 13th anniversary of their deranged playthings with a series of 13 special events, each tied to the often feared 13th day of each month. The twisted toymakers will also be releasing a number of specially branded limited edition 13th anniversary items. The specifics are top secret but you can bet your crypt the results will be terrifying fun.
