The fifth anniversary of the Brooklyn trio’s breakthrough album is on Friday (March 11), and the group wants to celebrate in a big way. The collaboration features three five-inch action figures in the likeness of Erick The Architect, Zombie Juice and Meechy Darko and is limited to only 3001 pieces. The models have 10 points of articulation and accessories based on the record sleeve by celebrated comics artist David Nakayama.
“As a collector of toys for my entire existence – being immortalized by this
3001: A Laced Odyssey action is greatness personified,” Zombie Juice said. “Not only is the 3001 album one of my favorites of all time – now we get to bring the Odyssey home to everyone through our own figure.”

Flatbush Zombies, stylized Flatbush ZOMBiES, are a hip hop group active since 2010. They first became noticed within the East Coast rap scene in the 2010s with the release of multiple mixtapes; since then they have produced three albums. Their most recent work is their 2020 EP, “now, more than ever,” and new single “Afterlife,” which has quickly become a fan favorite. Members Meechy Darko, Zombie Juice and Erick Arc Elliott met in grade school and have been great friends and co-performers since.
Flatbush Zombies have also produced interesting media. Their NPR Tiny Desk Concert and YouTube music videos are very entertaining. The group continues to create music together and build upon their previous discography with new and exciting styles.
