FIGMA SILENT HILL 2 RED PYRAMID THING AND BUBBLE HEAD NURSE (RE-ISSUE)
It’s Wednesday, you know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!
This week, we’re taking a look at the re-releases of the Silent Hill 2 figures from Figma, namely, the Red Pyramid Thing (or Pyramid Head, for his friends), and the Bubble Head Nurse, which were originally released in 2015. The game celebrated its 20th anniversary last month (Damn, I am old), and is one of my favorite games of the genre. I played that game through and through, got all of the endings (the ‘Dog’ one being the best one), and have been listening to the soundtrack for apparently 2 decades. Talking about the soundtrack, here’s a song for while you’re browsing the pictures!
First off, Red Pyramid Thing (or Pyramid Head, for his friends), comes with his Great Knife, a spear, an extra neck piece for the spear, extra hands and the usual articulated stand and bag for the accessories. The bag for accessories is a genius part for Figma figures, and more companies should do that.
The Bubble Head Nurse, which were just as scary as Pyramid Head in the game, are also greatly represented by Figma. Figma is used to make anime female characters, so that figure has a great sculpt and articulation. It’s a horribly disfigured zombie-like nurse, which, of course, has a cleavage, because Japan. 3 different heads, extra hands, a knife and steel pipe, along with the articulated stand and plastic bag for the accessories.
Before finishing this review, I actually had a bootleg version of the Red Pyramid Thing, which cost me about $13 a few years ago, and is HORRIBLE. Flimsy plastic, the parts fall off, it barely stands up on its own, as bootlegs usually do. If you breathe too close to it, it will fall apart. I can now get rid of it!

FIGMA: “WE WILL NOW STOP MAKING ‘ANIME WAIFUS’… SIKE! HERE ARE 25+ MORE!”
Good Smile Company, the Japanese manufacturer behind the Nendoroids and Figma action figure lines, held a short press conference to make an important announcement.
BREAKING NEWS:
FIGMA: “WE WILL NOW STOP MAKING ‘ANIME WAIFUS’… SIKE! HERE ARE 25+ MORE!”
The WonderFest 2021 (Autumn edition) occured during the weekend, and several of our favorite asian (or ‘import’) brands revealed tons of new toys. Good Smile Company, the Japanese manufacturer behind the Nendoroids and Figma action figure lines, held a short press conference to make an important announcement. A japanese representative of GSC, in a suit, walked to the stage, and gave the following speech:
“We, at Good Smile Company, want to give you the best possible products. We know our fans love the Nendoroid figures, and that there is some concern over the Figma line, who seems to heavily rely on delivering only anime girls, often cute or sexy, to the market. We wanted to reassure you on that matter: From now on, Figma will stop making “anime waifus” (the crowd let out a huge collective gasp)… SIKE! Here are 25+ more!” (the crowd popped, several grown men were seen crying of pure joy).
Here are some of the MANY figures that Figma revealed this weekend:
(There was also a cool Mummy figure with a sarcophagus, Demon Slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen, …figures displayed, but nobody realized they were here because of the abundance of anime girls).
ToyFarce hopes that no collectors were scared by that announcement with a twist, and that all your waifus needs will be fulfilled, whether it is by Figma or any other ‘import’ company.
