Masahiro Ito Delves into Silent Hill on Twitter

6/11/2017

Masahiro Ito has been sharing details about various elements of Silent Hill via his Twitter account. The creature designer (amongst over roles) has been treating fans to various bits of info for the past couple of months now.

Ito revealed a concept image for a cancelled Silent Hill game in March of this year (2017) and has continued to share even more details with fans. Ito has shared details about Silent Hill many times before with Fans on Twitter but lately has been sharing much more info and images than usual.

Below are just some of the images and bits of info he has shared recently with hopefully much more to come! Thank you Mr Ito for sharing this with us.

Also this exhaust fan means Heather's reincarnation or the cycle of rebirth by Valtiel. When Heather gets back to other world, it's running. https://t.co/CgzvIJJsEN

Silent Hill 2, Red Pyramid Thing Figma Review

5/31/2015

0 Comments

At Winter Wonder Festival 2014 it was revealed that Max Factory would release two Silent Hill Figma figures. These would be distributed by Good Smile Company and be available worldwide.

At the time only the Red Pyramid Thing Figma had been physically revealed and although it wasn't finished it still looked amazing.

The second figure was revealed to be a Bubble Head Nurse making both Figma's coming from Silent Hill 2. The Red Pyramid Head Figma was released in April of this year (2015) and sold out almost everywhere.

Luckily I managed to get my hands on a pair of RPT's and I am highly impressed! They look incredible and are definitely a must for any Silent Hill fan.

As we all know similar looking statues were released by Gecco but being a statue, were not posable. With the Figma figures you can pose them in any pose you like, add his Great Knife to the mix and you've got one hell of a bad ass looking figure.

The Red Pyramid Thing Figma comes in red and black packaging with a large clear window where you can see the figure and some of his accessories. The sides and lids of the box all contain images of the RPT, with a collection of images of him in various poses on the back. All of these poses can be re-created easily yourself.

When opening the box you'll see that he comes with his famous (and awesome) Great Knife, a Spear, 4 pairs of different hands (5 if you include the pair already attached) a stand with support, small plastic bag to keep everything in (if you decide to chuck the box in the bin) and an additional neck piece. As well as a small leaflet with instructions.

The paint job and detail is outstanding and no small details seem to have been left out. The right side of his helmet has a small nail sticking out with the dent that we have seen so many times before also present on the front. His billowing fleshy mass underneath his helmet looks wet and somewhat sticky, this also has another nail stuck in it at the back.

One thing that did surprise me is that the bottom of his clothing is made from rubber, which makes adjusting his legs into the right position easy and simple to do. His clothing itself is dull, dirty and blood stained. Small details like his silver buckles and bloody boots really do show how much work has gone into making this look as good as possible.

His arms, legs and feet are fully jointed making it easy to bend and adjust them into the way you want him to look. You can also twist his helmet from side to side or back and forth.

The additional pairs of hands means you can have him holding his Great Knife, the Spear, both or nothing. When comparing this figure to the Gecco Statue of the RPT, I do like how easy it is to slot the weapons into his hands. One thing that worried me with the statues was that I was pushing a little too hard and would end up breaking his hand while trying to attach the Great Knife.

With the Figma, his hands are designed to allow easy insertion of his weapons and actually have a small amount of flexibility.

The additional neck piece has a small hole in the front. When attached you are able to place the spear into his throat (ouch) and recreate the double RPT battle directly from Silent Hill 2. Originally I intended to keep one of these sealed in the box and the other on display but temptation got the best of me and I had to see what it would look like.
All I need now is an awesome backdrop and i've got a scene from Silent Hill 2 in my living room...

The base comes with a clear support which can be adjusted. On the base the Figma logo is present and a small hole in the back allows you to attach the support which also fits into the back of the figure to ensure he isn't going to be falling over anytime soon. Although he can stand freely without the stand.

I purchased both of these from AmiAmi for ¥3800 which works out at around £20/$30 each. Good Smile Company plan on re-releasing him this October for those who missed out the first time.

You can pre-order him from AmiAmi, BigBadToyStore, Forbidden Planet or directly from Good Smile Company.

Final images of the Figma Bubble Head Nurse revealed, available for pre-order now

5/8/2015

2 Comments

Images of Figma's Bubble Head Nurse have finally been revealed and as expected it is a thing of beauty!

We were treated to a small number of unfinished images back in February but now we can see her completed look and also get a glimpse at the additional extras that come with her.

As we can see she comes with a bloody knife, steel pipe and additional head which is similar to the head that was included with the Comic Con exclusive Red Bubble Head Nurse from Gecco.

She is currently up for pre-order from AmiAmi.com with a price of ¥4600 although she has 20% off right now, making her only ¥3540, which works out at just over £19/$29. BigBadToyStore have her listed for $54.99 or you could buy the Nurse and the Red Pyramid Thing directly from the Good Smile Company's online store. The RPT is also receiving a limited re-release in October.

I may have to pre-order more than one of these as i'm already debating a second Red Pyramid Thing Figma. For the price she looks amazing and is definitely worth the money. The RPT sold out pretty fast last time, so if you're planning to get one I would get your order in soon.

Figma's Bubble Head Nurse is due for release late October this year.

Bubble Head NUrse Figma revealed at Wonder Festival 2015

2/8/2015

1 Comment

This years Wonder Festival 2015 finally revealed the upcoming Silent Hill 2 Bubble Head Nurse figma figure. Although it's not yet completed the images released show a pair of nurses standing together while one holds onto the famous steel pipe.

The Figma's are taller and skinnier than I thought they would be but I really like the look of the dresses and face/head so far. I'm hoping the final design will look great overall.

No release date or price has been revealed for these yet however I assume they would be around the same price as the forthcoming Red Pyramid Thing Figma that is also due for release in April.

What do you think of the Bubble Head Nurse Figma? Let me know in the comments below.

Silent Hill Paradise's 2014 Christmas Gift Guide

12/4/2014

Like Paradise on Facebook by clicking HERE

Christmas is once again upon us and if you're like me you quite possibly have no idea what you would like Santa to bring you this year. Good job Paradise is here to help!

I have come up with another Christmas Gift Guide to ensure that awesome Silent Hill fan in your life gets exactly what they want and to make it a little bit easier I have included links directly to the gifts in question. So its as simple as click, checkout, chill!

I have selected a large number of links from around the world so there is something for everyone no matter where you are!
Luckily we have been treated to a lot of Silent Hill merchandise lately and to start off lets look at some awesome apparel.

Insert Coin Clothing have three different Silent Hill T-shirts available. The Silent Hill Historical Society T shirt Lakeview Hotel T shirt and the Radio Repairs T shirt. All T-shirts are available in sizes Small to 3 X Extra Large and are priced at £22 each or 3 for 2. If you're after something more than a T-shirt why not check out the awesome James Sunderland Jacket they also have available? Priced at £60 it's similar to the original release jacket from 2001 that was limited to 250 pieces and is a must for any fan. You can also grab the full range in a bundle for £85.

Or why not check out the Lakeside Amusement Park T-shirt or the Halo of the Sun T shirt available from Game Legends, this T-shirt is available in sizes Small to Extra Large and are both priced at €18.98. You can also save 10% at Game Legends with the code: SHPGLMC (you're welcome).

For the fans who like to sport some awesome headgear, why not give them a Silent Hill Military Hat featuring the one and only Pyramid head or the brilliant Robbie the Rabbit cap. And if that's not enough a matching Lakeside Amusement Park cap (to go with the T-shirt) is also available.

The perfect stocking filler would also be the Lakeside Amusement Park and Welcome to Silent Hill wristband, along with the Halo of the Sun keychain also available from Game Legends.

If none of the above are making you want to spend your cash then maybe a Robbie plush will change your mind? There is nothing like a blood stained Rabbit to show its Christmas! And this year Gaya Entertainment released quite possibly one of the most amazing Silent Hill items ever! The Robbie the Rabbit plush is available from Game Legends, Amazon and various other stores. He stands at 37cm tall and is so darn cute! This one is pretty much a WIN all in its self.

If you're wanting to spend a bit more on your presents this year for that REALLY special Silent Hill fan, you could always grab them a Silent Hill Gecco figure.

The first being the Red Pyramid Thing figure with a Lying Figure or the Bubble Head Nurse figure. Both of these figures are more available than the Red Bubble Head nurse or the Red Pyramid Thing figure with a Mannequin in his hands. These latter figures were available at San Diego Comic Con and are limited to 1500 pieces, so will be a bit more pricey. Do not fear though as you can still get them from Amazon, Ebay or any other sites that just happen to still have them in stock.

The more recent Gecco releases include Heather, Pink Bloody Robbie, Blue Bloody Robbie and A bloodless limited edition Robbie. The Bloodless version is exclusive to Japan and is limited to 300 pieces however you may be able to grab one if you use the auction sites Rinkya or Jauce.

If you're like me, you might really enjoy hand made gifts. There is something about a gift that has either been made by someone close to you or just someone that really adds something extra! So for those of you who love to give a more personal gift why not check out the custom Robbie the Rabbit Tree decoration or Toluca Mall Keychain. Both items are made by Amy who runs Silent Hill Alchemilla Hospital so you know it's been made by a fan for the fans!

Another beautifully made item is the 'A Tale of Birds Without a Voice' Silent Hill inspired Art book. It features a total of 16 illustrations showcasing characters and locations in SIlent Hill. The book is created by Elisa Fortes, who I know is a HUGE Silent Hill fan so you're really getting an awesome piece of Silent Hill memorabilia. The great thing about this book is that you can purchase it in a Hardback copy or a Digital copy.

As it gets closer to Christmas you'll be wanting to get all of those presents done and dusted as quickly as possible and what is quicker than a Dvd/Blu Ray or Game? Why not grab Silent Hill Revelation on Dvd, Blu-Ray and 3D Blu-Ray? You can purchase Silent Hill Revelation from a large number of Stores including Amazon, Ebay, Hmv and more. The Uk Steel Pack of the Original Silent Hill film was also released this year and as it's limited edition, this is one item that should surely bring a smile to any Silent Hill fan.

As you should know by now at Gamescon this year we were treated to a free playable teaser download of P.T which revealed the forthcoming next Silent Hill game 'Silent Hills'. Well remember that creepy fetus in the sink? Why not own your very own? A 3D printed P.T Fetus is available via shapeways!

The currently in production fan film, Silent Hill Requiem from Zenithfilms also has an online store where you can grab your very own official Requiem T shirts and signed prints! Check out the store right HERE

We were also treated to more Downpour this year with the awesome Comic Book Series 'Silent Hill Downpour: Anne's story. This series of comics follows the story of Anne Marie Cunningham and extends upon what we played through in the Downpour game. Issues 1-3 are currently available now with the 4th and final issue being available December 10th.

If you'd rather keep the person you're giving a gift to keep them quiet for a while so you can enjoy your own presents, go for a Silent Hill Game.
Finally for those who don't have the time to get a gift or don't quite have enough funds, why not give the gift of a pre-order? A Red Pyramid Thing figure from Figma will be available April worldwide. A new pose-able Robbie the Rabbit figure will also be available in July from Medicom Toy. You could always pre-order one and then pay once available, that way the person you intend to give it to will receive an amazing gift without paying a penny.

And for those who just love a bit of Silent Hill why not check out these awesome pages and give them a like on Facebook:

Silent Hill Alchemilla Hospital, Silent Nerd, Silent Hill Historical Society, Silent Hill Memories, Silent Haven, Silent Evil, ZenithFilms (Silent Hill Requiem), Elisa Fs Art (Lovely lady behind A tale of Birds without a Voice), Silent Hill Collectors and SilentHillCollection.com

gecco's Red Bubble Head Nurse Review #SilentHill

10/6/2013

1 Comment

Gecco have created a Bubble Head Nurse variant that was exclusive to ComicCon this year. The Bubble Head Nurse is limited to 1500 pieces and was previously made available via their website. It has now sold out.

Luckily I managed to get my hands on one and although you may be thinking the only differences appear to be the red boots and facial features you are far from right!

Before I even took the nurse out of the box I could already see the differences this figure has to offer. The box for one comes with different artwork at the front. Once again the 9 small squares windows have been included however instead of a faded image of the Bubble Head Nurse upon a red background we see this time the nurse against what appears to be a decaying backdrop. Her red boots being the focal point of the front.

The box art also contains the same information that has been included with the original Bubble Head Nurse statue along with the image of the nurse standing proudly on the back. As you can see from the back of the box the Nurse also has her red boots. As I looked at both boxes I noticed the original nurse image on the back has her wearing white suspenders and boots but as we all know the original nurse statue did not come with boots at all. Maybe they changed this at the last minute?

The Red Bubble Head Nurse comes with quite a large number of differences. The most obvious being the long red boots that just about reach the bottom of her dress. They are a deep blood red colour and have been painted so perfectly that they almost look like they have been made with real leather.

The base she stands on is very similar to its original with the only real differences being the blood spots. Instead of their being bloody footprints, this time there is just general spots around her feet. The grate is also much more shiny and gives off the appearance of it being wet.

Her skin is much brighter than the original with less veins and much more colour. She has a paleness to her that almost looks as if her skin is real. Once again beautifully painted with no lack of detail. Even her dress appears to have deeper tears and extra detail. Her name badge appears to have a name on it this time that reads 'Sandrega'. Where this name originates from is a mystery as all searches I have conducted have revealed nothing.

The nurses face has quite a few differences. The first one being the obvious red ball like thing over her mouth. The folds of skin at either side of her face are much more defined and her neck is greeted by what appears to be some kind of choker. Her skin around her head is deeper in colour this time, giving the impression of her being chocked.

Unlike with the previous nurse release this time she comes with an additional head. At first I didn't think the head could actually be removed as it is tightly placed on top her head. Eventually it did come off and I managed to replace it with the additional head piece. This head also comes with the chocker around its neck but instead of the red ball across her mouth we can see a mouth and nose. Even the sunken areas of where the eyes should be are visible. With this additional head it adds a further variant to the line of Nurse's and actually makes me want to purchase one more nurse so I can have all three on display.

Once again she comes with additional hands so you can decide what hand she carries her steal pipe. The small card that is included with the original nurse is also included but this time isn't numbered. Instead where the individual number is, are the words 'Limited to 1,500 pieces worldwide'.

I am definitely impressed with the Red Bubble Head Nurse statue and would happily recommend it to anyone. If you already own the original nurse then you really should get this one too! I managed to get mine from amazon for £123. Bigbagtoystore.com already have them for pre-order at $149.99.

You can also purchase the Red Bubble Head Nurse from Game-Legends.com for € 189.98

This is definitely another great piece from Gecco and Toymunkey studios.

Geccos' Toymunkey Bubble Head Nurse review #SilentHill

9/29/2013

1 Comment

The Gecco Bubble Head Nurse statue is a real thing of beauty. Taken directly from Silent Hill 2 the nurse stands at 9.8 inches high and is 1/6 scale. Beautifully painted with such detail, this is definitely one for the fans.

The packaging for the nurse statue is a collectors piece all in itself. Coloured with deep reds, the box features an image of the nurse designed by Masahiro Ito. The front uses the famous 9 square save image from Silent Hill 2 as a window to see inside the box. The statue itself is light weight and easy to piece together.

Inside the box contains the Nurse, a stand, two pairs of hands, an imitation steel pipe and 3 black clips. These clips are so you can attach more than one Nurse figure to the base to create an additional scene. The statue comes with two pairs so you can have her hold the steel pipe in either the left or right hand dependant on personal choice. I have chosen to go with the steel pipe in her left hand.

The packaging also contains a full list of all the people/companies involved in the production and release of the figure. It also has two small profile sections with a brief description about Shin Tanabe, the Sculptor and Yoshinori Yatake, who is the painter. Along with these profiles the box also contains information about Silent Hill and the Bubble Head Nurse.

The base she stands on has a small protruding stud that her foot attaches to. As with the nurse even the base is detailed. Bloody footprints, a cracked floor and even a small section that looks like a metal grate.

The Nurse statue itself is highly detailed. Starting from her feet upwards you can see small specks of blood on her shoes to coincide with the bloody footprints on the floor. Her legs are pale and covered in small veins. Her dress is creased and dirty, torn in places with small blood specks here and there. She also has on a small name badge but her name is unfortunately not visible (I call her Cynthia). Her body leans to the one side to replicate her movements in the game.

Her detachable hands are painted to look like they have gloves over them. They have even been given a glossy, shiny look as if they are in fact made from rubber. The steel pipe she brandishes in her hands also looks like real metal.

As with the original Bubble Head Nurse we see in Silent Hill 2 the skin on her face overlaps. Her chest, like her legs is also covered in veins. What appear to be small cracks in the skin on her face replace where the mouth should be. The detail that has gone into the tones and colours of the flesh make it look all the more real. Even her small hat has creases and lines that give off a realistic look.

This figure also comes with a small card that is attached to the inside of the box opening. It contains a small amount of information on one side with you own figure number. The Nurse I received is Number: 00024. The other side of the card has the same image we see on the back of the box.

In comparison to previously released Silent Hill figures this really is something else! The work that has gone into making such an amazing piece of merchandise is astounding and I am extremely pleased with what I have received. Prices for this statue vary, however I managed to purchase mine from Bigbadtoystore.com for $104

You can also purchase the Bubble Head Nurse from Game-Legends.com for € 149.98.

This is definitely one for the fans and a real must!
