RED PYRAMID THING


I still remmeber when Gecco first apeared 7 or 8 years ago, they were a brand new japanese figure brand that launched theyr name with Silent Hill statues, a very weird and odd decision and people was very vocal about theyr prices as well. They had succes and now the base price of theyr figures is four times higher....well, i am glad i was at the begining i guess and i was able to get theyr first figures.


I rescently got the Bubble Head Nurse in her regular version but after the Masahiro Ito version i got 7 years ago i actually had Red Pyramid Thing. I wasnt expecting to get him really...hes price was too high but it was really worth it!!


And i have to say i LOVE the Masahiro Ito artwork on the box and hos good it fits with the Nurse box, this are expensive statues but they used to be worth the price.


Red Pyramid Thing is taller than the Nurses tough hes back is leaning backwards soo in the end he is only a few inches taller tough he is much more heavyer than the Nurses. The sculpt is fantastic!! With his weird...outfit...i am not sure if its the outfit of a butcher since it looks more like an asylum stuff, having a great deranged texture and his muscles looking bulging and sexy, with veins around.


His helmteh looks like is exploding, almost not able to contain the sea of flesh underneath and with holes and big nails protunding around, this is a weird mixture of the organic and the inorganic and under his helmeth you can take a good look at the organic part: just flesh mixing with the metal and coming out of it.


The paint is great too, with a very clean grey on his muscles, and old looking white on his outift and a vibrant red on his helmeth, really, his head is my favorite part since it almost looks like is on fire.


This figure is a two for one deal since he comes with an extra monster!!! Theres two version sof him, one holding the Liying Figure and one holding a Manequin, and while a like much more the Liying Figure as monster, the Manequin is much more game accurate since the first time we see him he is raping this creatures.


The manequin also have an awesome sculpt and paint, a mixture of organic and inorganic since is imposible to say if this thing is an static object or a spider like creature. He have a wound with blood on his back or front...i dunno, something Red Pyramid did.


There is also a big sword weapon that gets in the way a lot since is too big and Pyramid is just dragging it and a very solid and elegant base imitating the floor of a kitchen. Non of this are removable tough, nor the Manequin or the base or sword, soo they dont count as accesory. This is a big and solid piece.


His only accesory is the card they included, with his description and an artwork. Sadlly, they didnt added the Masahiro Ito artowkr from the box and instead they used a game screenshot, a very poor decision in my opinion.


Theres not too much to say about this figure since is trully perfect, really haunting, weird and beautifull, with a great flow between the two creatures and a fantastic sculpt and paint, it almost look like a piece of art for a museum. This is for me the very best Silent Hill figure to date and one of the best productions from Gecco.
