An email I received this morning from Gecco themselves informed me that the two statues that are in the works are not quite ready to be revealed fully, as the prototypes are still yet to be completed.
We can expect two new statues from Gecco with the other yet to be revealed.
The Red Pyramid Thing statue will be 1/6 in scale and Masahiro Ito will once again be designing the package artwork.
The only reason this information was released before a prototype was even complete was due to a tweet being shared between Ito and the Gecco art director through Twitter. You can view this tween below.
The tweet translate to:
"Masahito Ito-San because me set the stage, I became a good thing to say! As Gecco new, and is preparing a 1/6 scale Statue of creature two-body than "Silent Hill 2". Was higher-requested "Sankakuatama-spear Ver", and the other piece is still secret. Masahiro Ito's full supervision!" The second statue is still being kept a secret but I would love to see a human character, maybe James or Maria or even Angela. With Angela being my favorite character i'm holding out it's her however I can't see this being the case. Either way i'm excited and cannot wait to see these new statues when the prototypes are finally revealed. No release date has been announced but I'm guessing they will be available for pre-order towards the end of the year/early 2016. Gecco have already released a total of 8 Silent Hill statues from both Silent Hill 2 and Silent Hill 3 along with a whole bunch of official T-shirts and Iphone cases. Images of these are below. I wonder if there will be any additional product releases to coincide with these statues? What are you hoping the second statue will turn out to be? |
