RESIDENT EVIL 6 Leon S. Kennedy Action Figure Review - Sideshow Collectibles
I'm a huge fan of the Resident Evil video game franchise. I've played every game they've made and it is aways a fun and entertaining experience. Needless to say, I was incredibly stoked when Sideshow Collectibles sent me their 1/6th scale collectible action figure of franchise character Leon S. Kennedy from Resident Evil 6!
They did an incredible job bringing this video game character to life. Most of what we've reviewed for Sideshow has been Star Wars and superheroes based on the appearance of actors. What's so cool about this character is that it comes from the design of a video game and it's awesomely brought to life in a physical form.
The other thing that's different about this is that he's not wearing any kind of superhero costume. He's just dressed in regular clothes that includes a couple of shirts, a black leather jacket, some pants, and boots. Now, just because these are just regular clothes doesn't mean Hot Toys is going to skimp out on the fine details of them because they don't. They made an incredible figure and the detail — especially on the leather jacket — is superb.
The Leon figure comes complete with a pistol, two wing shooters, a sniper rifle, a shotgun, and of course, a freakin' Rocket Launcher! It's the kind of arsenal that John Wick would be proud of.
Below you'll find a series of photos that I took of the figure. I had a little fun playing around with the lighting of it in the dark to give it that classic Resident Evil horror vibe. I also did a Facebook live video review of it during a dark and stormy night. Unfortunately, it didn't turn out very well because the video was glitching due to a new app I was trying out.
If you're a Resident Evil fan then this is a figure you've got to try and get your hands on., You can get on a waiting list for it here.
