Resident Evil has revealed three adorable plush toys modeled after two famous scary creatures and a well-known character from their series. These plushies offer a humorous twist to the classic Resident Evil designs, transforming them into something cute and snuggly rather than frightening and potentially lethal.

As Resident Evil nears its 30th anniversary, fans are eagerly anticipating what lies ahead for the series. In recent years, Capcom has been revisiting the classics, having released full remakes of Resident Evil 2, 3, and 4, while also introducing fresh additions to the franchise with Resident Evil 7 and Resident Evil Village. Players are eager to discover what future remakes, if any, the franchise might hold, particularly hoping for a remake of Resident Evil Code: Veronica. These plush toys draw inspiration from the first two installments of the game.

Capcom unveiled three cuddly plush toys inspired by the series “Resident Evil”, featuring the Licker, zombie dog, and HUNK characters. These new additions belong to Capcom’s “Capcorom” collection, showcasing a unique stackable design, where each character is shown lying down on their stomach. Despite being simplified versions, they are easily recognizable. The zombie dog plush sports red stripes that hint at gore or exposed flesh, while the Licker retains its characteristic visible brain and long tongue hanging out. Hunk is portrayed in his tactical gear with his signature red-eye gas mask on. These cute toys will hit the market on March 15 for approximately $7.40 USD each, which equates to 1100 yen.

Resident Evil and Cute Collide

In a surprising twist, the plush toys based on the fearsome Licker and zombie dog from the Resident Evil series might seem peculiar or even humorous to some fans. After all, this isn’t the first time that Resident Evil has veered into the realm of the adorable. To build anticipation for the Resident Evil 4 remake, the series creators released a short anime series with pastel-colored imagery, transforming some of the game’s most terrifying moments into lighthearted and endearing scenes instead.

It appears that many enthusiasts of the series appreciate these adorable twists, sometimes inventing their own versions. One devotee even opted for a unique take on Leon S. Kennedy tattoo, which might not come as a shock, but chose an unconventional depiction. This particular Resident Evil tattoo transformed Leon into a raccoon, a witty nod to his role in the Raccoon City police, earning it the nickname “Leon S. Raccoonedy.
