Figma Pyramid Head/Bubblehead Nurse
Must-Buy Video Game Toys & Figures
Figma is Max Factory’s answer to Bandai’s S.H. Figuarts. However, comparing the two is like comparing apples to oranges; each line has its own strengths and weaknesses. Figma caters more to gamers than Figuarts thanks to its impressive lineup of video game icons, including Metroid’s Samus Aran, Yakuza’s Kazuma Kiryu, and Overwatch’s Widowmaker. Furthermore each Figma comes with a posing stand, while S.H. Figuarts stands are sold separately with a few exceptions, but that’s neither here nor there.
While each Figma figure features plenty of crisp detailing and beautiful paintwork, none come close to the level of detail on the Silent Hill 2 Pyramid Head and Bubblehead Nurse figures. Yes, I’m including both because they are equal in terms of detail and paint. Each figure is poseable enough (and has the right accessories) to recreate several iconic scenes, and they feature subtle paint applications that are only visible up close and personal. If Silent Hills had not been canceled, even its monsters wouldn’t hold a candle to these beauties.
