Fans of Capcom’s Resident Evil franchise will soon have plenty of new collectibles to catch thanks to the upcoming wave of Numskull Designs ’TUBBZ line. The first wave included cosplay ducks like Chris and Claire Redfield, Leon S. Kennedy and Jill Valentine. With the most important heroes of the franchise, Wave 2 will focus on some other notable faces: Ada Wong, Nemesis, HUNK, Tofu and The Merchant of Resident Evil 4. All five are now available for pre-order and are expected to come out in April. The new additions should be quite exciting for fans of the video game series.
A trailer for the TUBBZ toys can be found in the tweet embedded below.

All in all, it looks like a very cool wave for the TUBBZ figures. It’s a little disconcerting to see such a beautiful way to acquire a horrible engine of destruction like Nemesis, but the line often features horror-inspired characters. Given that Leon threw in the first wave, it only makes sense to him Resident Evil 4 allies Ada Wong and the merchant receive similar treatment. Maybe the Chainsaw Cattle could make the Wave 3 cut. Of course, if anyone really deserves the cosplay duck treatment, it’s Albert Wesker. The villain has been assaulting STARS since the first entry into the franchise, and the line feels a little more empty without him.
This year marks the 25th anniversary of the Resident Evil franchise and Capcom is celebrating several exciting ways. Fans have it Resident Evil Village we’ll be waiting in May, as well as the release of a new Resident Evil movie in theaters this September. The latest wave of Resident Evil figures from the TUBBZ line is just one way fans will be able to celebrate the survival-horror series in 2021, but it looks like there will be many more before the end of the year.
