"When it comes to gaming, one thing is for sure, we like our female leads to be tough. The ability to kick zombie butt is always a bonus too. That's why this week we've chosen a character who's both tough and considered to be quite attractive in addition to knowing exactly how to handle herself when dealing with a possible zombie apocolypse. Like Jill Valentine before her, we've picked a lead from the world of corporations named after wet weather gear and viruses named after letters. This week..."
Say what you want about game figurines, but Hot Toys make some pretty awesomely detailed ones. Their Albert Wesker, Sheva and Chris figures were surprisingly accurate and now they have released a brand new Resident Evil 5 figurine: Jill Valentine.

Hong Kong company Hot Toys have released these awesomely detailed Resident Evil 5 figures of Chris Redfield and Sheva Alomar. The figures also come with many weapons from the game.

I'm not a big fan of figurines, but I'd be willing to fork out the money for that Chris one!
