Fans ofSilent Hillhave long awaited a new entry to the horror series, which sadly doesn’t seem to be happening anytime soon. However, those who particularly loveSilent Hill 2and its horrifying humanoid monsters can at least look forward to something, asSilent Hill 2’s Pyramid Head and Bubble Head Nurse are returning in Figma form.
Figmaare extremely posable action figures originating in Japan. In addition to smooth posable joints, most Figma also feature additional pieces, like swappable hands, props, and face plates with different facial expressions. TheSilent Hill 2Figma were originally released years ago, but they’ve since left production, becoming somewhat rare and only available via re-sellers, up until this re-release.

Now,Silent Hill’s Pyramid Head and the Bubble Head Nurse are available for pre-order for $83.99 and $73.99, respectively. Pyramid Head comes with both his Great Knife and spear, as well as swappable hands and a stand. Bubble Head Nurse ships with a knife and metal pipe, and additional head parts, along with extra hands and a stand. The pre-order period for both Figma will run until December 2, and they’re expected to ship in August 2021.
AlthoughSilent Hillis essentially deadin the water as a series, several of the games and their starring characters have been back in the limelight as of late. Mods have broughtSilent Hillto other horror games likeAmnesia, whileDead by Daylight’s developers worked with Konami to bringSilent Hill’s Heather Mason and Cybil Bennett to the title as playable characters, forced to face Pyramid Head himself.
Unfortunately, despite nearly constant rumors of a newSilent Hillemerging following the cancellation ofSilent Hills, nothing concrete has been revealed by Konami.Silent Hillfans have recently urgedSony to try and purchase the rights toSilent Hill, if not all of Konami’s titles, as the developer seems content to let several of its major hit games sit by the wayside. However, the likelihood of this happening seems low.
For the time being, fans will just have to hold onto theirSilent Hillnostalgia and enjoy the small morsels that have been offered to the fanbase recently. While theSilent Hill Remasteredcollection from several years ago was critically panned due to being severely buggy, players may be happy to know thatSilent Hill: The Roomreleased for PCrecently, giving fans a chance to revisit the fourth entry to the series.
