Hyundai at New York Comic Con
HYUNDAI UNVEILS FAN-DESIGNED ZOMBIE SURVIVAL MACHINE AT NEW YORK COMIC CON
New York, New York, Oct. 10, 2013 –
When Anson Kuo set out to build the ultimate Zombie Survival Machine,
he first looked to his driveway for inspiration. After recently
purchasing an all-new 2013
Hyundai Santa Fe Sport, Kuo
decided to design his “zombie-mobile” based on his own new car.
Kuo’s
customized Hyundai Santa Fe Zombie Survival Machine, brought to life
by Galpin Auto Sports (GAS), will be revealed on the New York Comic
Con floor at the Future US booth in the Javitz Center today. Kuo’s
Santa Fe design was picked as the winner out of more than 82,500
fan submissions on The
Walking Dead Chop Shop configurator app.
“My main
design goal was to make the vehicle as stealthy and spacious as
possible,” said Kuo. “I knew knives and blades would be the best
bet for weaponry – they could slice and dice the zombies without
releasing any ammunition. Basing the design on the Santa Fe allows
space for extra passengers as well as weapons, supplies and all the
other necessary items needed during a real zombie apocalypse.”
Kuo’s
urban camouflaged Zombie Survival Machine features knife
blades, an automatic crossbow, razor-wired windows, three machine
guns, a samurai sword, aluminum armor and a muffler silencer. New
York Comic Con attendees will be able to take pictures with the new
Zombie Survival Machine at the Future US booth and get inside the
vehicle to check out all of the features. The booth will also feature
a zombie make-up artist, limited edition giveaways, and more.
“Anson Kuo’s
custom Santa Fe Zombie Survival Machine is the ultimate car for The
Walking Dead fans,” said Steve Shannon, vice president,
Marketing, Hyundai Motor America. “It’s very cool to see Anson’s
great design become a real-life, detailed, zombie-proof vehicle.”
Hyundai’s
continued partnership with Robert Kirkman’s Skybound imprint at
Image Comics and Kirkman’s groundbreaking comic and best-selling
graphic novels, The
Walking Dead also includes a special gallery
execution featuring “The Walking Dead A Decade of Dead” curated
by former editorial director Sina Grace at local gallery Pillars 37
October 10-12. This event will showcase The Walking Dead
artwork, famed illustrations, the Veloster Zombie Survival Machine
from San Diego Comic-Con and an autograph signing by artist Charlie
Adlard. Limited edition prints exclusive to the gallery will be
distributed to gallery guests each day. The gallery will also host a
private screening of the world premiere of the “Hyundai Presents
The Walking Dead A Decade of Dead” documentary.
“We’re
excited to see Anson’s Zombie Survival Machine debut at New York
Comic Con,” said Robert Kirkman. “This is a great addition to the
celebration of the 10th Anniversary of The Walking
Dead.”
The
Hyundai and Future US displays will be located at Booth #542 on the
Javitz Center show floor. To check out the documentary, visit

Hyundai and The Walking Dead bring fan-designed Zombie Survival Machine to life
HYUNDAI AND THE WALKING DEAD BRING FAN-DESIGNED ZOMBIE SURVIVAL MACHINE TO LIFE
·
All-New Santa Fe Zombie Survival Machine Will Debut at New York Comic-Con
·
Special Gallery to Feature “Hyundai Presents The Walking Dead A Decade of Dead” Documentary
COSTA MESA, Calif., Oct. 4, 2013 –
Zombies beware! Hyundai will welcome the newest addition to its zombie-fighting family at New York Comic-Con: Anson Kuo’s Santa
Fe Zombie Survival Machine. Aimed at effective
undead annihilation, the fan-built vehicle will be on display for the
living on the show floor on October 10.
As part of The
Walking Dead Chop Shop configurator
app designed by Hyundai and INNOCEAN USA (launched during San Diego
Comic-Con), fans have designed thousands of custom zombie survival
machines using the Hyundai Veloster
Turbo, Santa Fe or
Elantra. This summer, Kuo’s Santa Fe design was picked as the winner out of more than 82,500 fan
submissions. His winning vehicle was constructed by Galpin Auto Sports
(GAS) and the real-life machine will be unveiled on the New York
Comic-Con show floor on October 10 at the Future US booth.
Kuo,
who hails from Arizona, created an urban camouflaged Zombie Survival
Machine featuring: knife blades, an automatic crossbow, razor-wired
windows, three machine guns, a samurai
sword, aluminum armor and a muffler silencer. His mission was to create
a stealthy vehicle with abundant cargo space for supplies and
passengers, maximizing survivability against the undead. Having knives
as a primary weapon ensures scarce ammunition is conserved,
said Kuo. This Hyundai will be a true zombie obliterator.
“We love Anson Kuo’s take on this Santa Fe Zombie Survival Machine – it’s creative… and deadly,” said Steve Shannon, vice
president, Marketing, Hyundai Motor America. “With help from the popularity of The Walking Dead franchise,
Hyundai continues to expand the conversation around Hyundai vehicles with young and passionate audiences.”
At
San Diego Comic-Con in July, Hyundai unveiled a customized Veloster
Zombie Survival Machine designed by Robert Kirkman and fabricated by
GAS.
“Having
Anson’s winning design on display at New York Comic-Con is a fun way to
celebrate The Walking Dead’s 10th anniversary,” said Robert Kirkman.
New
York Comic-Con attendees will be able to take pictures with the new
Zombie Survival Machine at the Future US booth and get inside the
vehicle to check out all of the features. The
booth will also feature a zombie make-up artist, limited edition
giveaways, and more.

The Walking Dead Inspired Drink - The Bloody Brain Shooter
ingredients
Directions
Chill vodka for better smoothness. Add vodka and lime juice to a shaker, shake and strain into a shot glass. Using a straw, dip some Bailey's Irish Cream into the shot. Once you submerge the straw into the Bailey's put your finger on top of the straw to hold the Bailey's in the straw. Dip the straw tip into the vodka and slowly release your top finger. The Bailey's will curdle a little bit due to the lime juice and you should be able to make strands of Bailey's.Repeat the straw/Bailey's process to build a "brain" in the shot glass. Add a splash of grenadine to the concoction to add the 'blood' to the mix. Down the hatch as a shot.Source: http://www.cookingchanneltv.com/recipes/bloody-brain-shooter.html
