And, for the first time in Top Chef history, the Quickfire will be judged on presentation and plating only -- not taste. In the Elimination Challenge, the chefs prepare a traditional three-course Italian meal in one of New York's most famous and exclusive restaurant's, Rao's. The Sopranos' Lorraine Bracco returns to Top Chef as the guest judge.

Tenacious Toys Exclusive Blue Zombie Chuck
Looks AWESOME !! A MUST HAVE !!!
This detailed 5-inch resin figure is cast in a very limited run by Adam of Adam Smith Studios in Kansas City. Price will be $15, and we will post up again once the figures have arrived (on their way right now!) Till then, you can read more about Brian Fyffe and Zombie Chuck at www.fyffo.com, and you can friend Brian on Facebook.
About Brian Fyffe:
Brian grew up outside Dayton, OH, playing in the radioactive fallout drifting out of Hangar 18 at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. He is currently living in Kansas City and working as a commercial illustrator for companies like Adobe, Leapfrog, Hallmark and many others. Brian's art is inspired by Basil Wolverton, Bruce Timm, Jack Davis, Jeff Smith and Dick Briefer. In general, he digs 60s and 70s cereal premiums and monster culture from the same era.
What the future holds for Zombie Chuck:
Starting this March, you will find Brian touring around the comic cons. The follow-up figure to Chuck will be another prominent character from Book 1 of the Zombie Chuck series. Aside from the comic, which you can buy here, Brian has made Zombie Chuck t-shirts, buttons, stickers and more!
Book 2 will be released in the fall, along with 2 more figures and accompanying merchandise.
