Resident Evil: William Birkin TUBBZ Boxed Edition

1. Characters and background

"Resident Evil" is a popular horror game series released by Capcom in 1996. It is a survival horror game that revolutionized gaming history, depicting a pandemic caused by a mysterious virus and the people who fight it. The concept of experiencing fear through fighting zombies and mutated creatures captivated many players, and the series was adapted into various media, including movies and anime.

William Birkin, who appears in "Resident Evil 2" (released in 1998), is one of the most important characters in the series. A genius scientist at Umbrella Corporation, Birkin developed the "G-Virus," an evolved version of the T-Virus. When Umbrella's underlings tried to steal his research results, he injected the G-Virus into his own body to protect his own research. As a result, he gradually mutated and transformed into the terrifying creature "G." His transformation was depicted in stages throughout the game, instilling great fear in players.

His relationship with his daughter Sherry Birkin and his wife Annette Birkin are also important elements that add depth to the work. Birkin's story was faithfully recreated in the 2019 remake, Resident Evil 2, conveying its horror and tragedy to a new generation of gamers.

2. Features of the figure

The "Resident Evil: William Birkin TUBBZ Boxed Edition" is a collector's item designed and manufactured by Numskull Designs, recreating William Birkin from the Resident Evil series in a unique duck style. The TUBBZ series is known for its humorous figurine collections that depict popular characters in the form of adorable ducks.

This figure recreates William Birkin's distinctive appearance after he is infected with the G-Virus, combining his normal duck form with his mutated features. Crafted from high-quality PVC, it measures approximately 9cm (3.54 inches) and is meticulously sculpted with incredible detail. It faithfully recreates iconic elements of his G form, including Birkin's distinctive mutated right arm and facial deformation.

As a Boxed Edition, this figure comes in a special display case. This case is designed to maximize the figure's appeal while protecting it from dust and scratches. It's designed with collectors in mind, making it a worthy addition to any Resident Evil fan's collection. As an officially licensed Resident Evil product, it's crafted with a focus on quality and accuracy.

3. The charm of the characters

The appeal of William Birkin lies in his tragic transformation. Originally a brilliant scientist and a man with a family, his obsession with his research and instinct for survival gradually transformed him into a monster. This transformation from "man to monster" is one of the most memorable storylines in the Resident Evil series.

One of the attractions of Birkin is the complexity of his character. He is not simply a villain, but a scientist who uses his talents to survive within the enormous organization known as Umbrella Corporation, sometimes abandoning his sense of ethics in order to immerse himself in his research. He has a contradictory side, as his passion for research sometimes leads him to act without regard for his family. Even after his mutation into the G-Virus, we see the lingering feelings of a father towards his daughter Sherry, giving him a depth that cannot be dismissed as a simple "monster."

His presence in gameplay is also noteworthy. Birkin changes form multiple times throughout the game, standing before the player. His terrifying appearance and overwhelming strength are deeply etched in the memories of many players. In particular, the way his appearance gradually changes symbolizes the "horror" and "grotesque" elements of the Resident Evil series.

This TUBBZ William Birkin figure reinterprets this terrifying and complex character as a humorous duck. The contrast between this terrifying character and his adorable form makes this a truly appealing piece for Resident Evil fans.
