*Updated with official release details and an additional image.* Whether they were lurking in the shadows of Spencer Mansion, stalking the streets of Raccoon City, or charging through an Umbrella Corporation laboratory, the undead creatures of the Resident Evil video game franchise have given gamers plenty of nightmare fuel over the years. Capturing their frightful features with a fun slant, Funko has unveiled a new Resident Evil Pop! vinyl figures lineup that also includes a couple of friendly faces from the franchise.
Initially revealed by PopVinyls.com, the Resident Evil Pop! vinyl figures feature Jill Valentine, Leon S. Kennedy, Nemesis, Licker, Hunter, and two versions of Tyrant—a regular edition that will only be available only at Hot Topic and a glow-in-the-dark version that will be available exclusively at Target. These Pop! vinyl figures are slated for a January release from Funko.
From Funko: "The classic video game franchise Resident Evil is joining the Pop! family!
This series includes S.T.A.R.S. Alpha Team’s Jill Valentine and government agent Leon S. Kennedy, as well as the Licker, Nemesis, and Tyrant enemies!
Look for super sized 6" Pop! figures of Tyrant (exclusively at Hot Topic), glow-in-the-dark Tyrant (only at Target), and Hunter (only at GameStop)!
Collect them all this winter!
Coming in January!"
With Resident Evil: The Final Chapter hitting theaters in January, will you be adding these Pop! vinyl figures to your collection?
