Bub from "Day of the Dead"?

Yup, effectively a dead soldier that the scientist is trying to train to use weapons and command/control. So he is in BDUs thought I did mine in Denim

"Bub" is in the 1985 Romero Day of the Dead.

Not to be confused with "Bud" in the 2008 sort of re-make.

Bub and Bud are similar in some respects (both zombie "characters") but they are different.

The Studio Figure is based on the 1985 "Bub".

Its age since I have seen the 1985 Day of the Dead so I could easily be wrong, but I thought that Bub wore dark denim (like the photo on the Studio site), not BDUs.

2008 Bud wears BDUs for sure.

Not that its a big deal or anything :)
