Marvel Zombies - Deadpool Figure by Hot Toys

Nope.

A zombie Deadpool is a contradiction in terms.

It's really interesting they're doing Comic Masterpiece Series. Obviously this is pretty niche, but opening the doors to comic stuff would be great.

I think the pivot is logical. Hot Toys now have a plethora of fully-produced designs to leverage and adapt to new concepts, repaints, and non-canon designs. The Midas armor is getting a re-release, they're looking at Venomized characters, and they have at least 3 videogames lines that remain active between Spider-Man, Future Fight, and Arkham.
Without the big stream of new films for comics stuff, it makes sense they would look to build the comic figures and take some market share away from Sideshow and whoever else is still in the game.
Star Wars is also getting a similar treatment as evidence by the Clone Wars items and some of the recent special releases/repaints.

Wait, isn't this new Midas technically not a rerelease, since it's based on the newer Diecast Mark 7?

Fair and correct. It's facsimile or the original, but the objective of the upcoming release substitutes it well and it still takes advantage of an existing product design. That and this let's you get the chrome finish that was on the exclusive of the original release.

It's not as huge of a difference like you can see between their first and second gen releases of RoboCop or ED-209 and I'd rather have an updated product to fill a collection gap compared to the rare and exorbitant early exclusive.
