The dead are rising and they've brought a friend. The Plants vs Zombies Game of the Year Limited Edition on PC packages PopCap's addictive tower defense classic with a limited zombie figurine that has no business being as charming as it is.

The game itself hardly needs an introduction. Fifty levels of Adventure mode, twenty mini-games, forty-nine plant types, twenty-six zombie varieties, and the "Zombatar" creator that lets you build your own undead avatar. It's the complete package of one of the most universally beloved casual games ever released. But we're not here for the software. We're here for that figurine.

Limited run zombie figurines from the early 2010s PC era are the kind of items that slip through the cracks. They weren't marketed to hardcore statue collectors, they were tossed in as a fun bonus for a game most people played on their lunch breaks. And that's exactly why they've become difficult to find in good condition. Most ended up on office desks, got knocked around, or disappeared into junk drawers. A clean, complete copy of this edition with the figurine intact is a surprisingly tricky hunt. For PopCap completionists and gaming shelf curators who appreciate a little personality between their brooding SteelBooks and grim statues, this is the palette cleanser your collection didn't know it needed.
