Game dealer Numskull has launched a new line of Silent Hill collectibles, starting with the Bubblehead Nurse.
The 9″ tall “super exclusive” statue features a Silent Hill 2 variant rather than Homecoming or the movie, and is officially endorsed by Konami with the “fans expect to see” all the finishing touches”.

“A high-quality statue of the iconic Bubble-Headed Nurse straight from the critically acclaimed horror game Silent Hill 2, the sinister female monster in James Sunderland’s subconscious,” the synopsis explains.
“This bubble head nurse statue is 9 inches tall and comes with all the finishing touches fans have come to expect, including her filthy nurse outfit, metal tube weapons, thin liquid trap mask and iconic pose. This The ultra-exclusive collectible is a must-have for any Silent Hill fan.”
For me, though, the most exciting part of this announcement wasn’t yet another nurse statue (let’s face it – Silent Hill fans are soaking up the nurse and pyramid head merchandise), but the teaser above The silhouette at the end of the film suggests a statue celebrating Silent, Heather Morris of Hill 3 – with barely any merchandise – following closely behind.

Keiichiro Toyama – creator and director of Silent Hill, Siren, Gravity Rush and more – revealed his latest horror project Slitterhead back in December. This is the work of Toyama’s new studio, Bokeh, which he founded after leaving SCE Japan at the end of 2020.
Bokeh is also home to several other SCE Japan Studio alumni — including Gravity Rush lead designers Junya Okura and Kazunobu Sato — whose first project will see Toyama return to his horror roots in February 2021.
