ThinkGeek Chocolate Zombie Bunny Turns Real
Considering previous ThinkGeek April Fool’s gag products have turned real, it shouldn’t be a great surprise that the Chocolate Zombie Bunny has found life. Joining other physical-world products, the Tauntaun Sleeping Bag, My First Bacon, Unicorn Meat, Personal Soundtrack Shirt, 8-bit Tie and the iCade, the little critter is the sweet-to-eat treat that bites back. Unfortunately, what isn’t a joke, is the fact that it is all sold out–but hey, there’s always next year.
***UPDATE 9/28/24*** The link above now points to GameStop and they don’t sell Zombie Chocolate Bunnies. (Yet for some reason their stock took off!) But no worries, it looks like this is a seasonal(?) product from Sugar Plum Chocolates. Yum!
