Resident Evil is a game that came out in 1996. T & I bought a copy. It was the most expensive game I had ever purchased. It was like $20.00 or something. Which was a whole lot for us at the time. Our rent was $225.00 and I made like $4 an hr. at my part time job, was paying for college, art supplies, books, my car and T was working for min. wage at Arby's. Still, it was one of the best purchases we ever made.
We spent countless hours playing Resident Evil and screaming out loud when zombie dogs or other things would jump out of nowhere to kill us. We played as Jill Valentine and took turns working our way through. T ultimately beat it and we cheered! It was a very bonding experience. The couple that plays together...stays together. We've played nearly every single Resident Evil since. Occasionally getting lucky enough to be blessed with co-op instead of one player!
The thing I remember most (other than Claire's cry of "Leon") about Resident Evil 2 was Ada Wong. She was mysterious and sexy. You didn't know if she was good or bad. Well, Hot Toys new Ada Wong is awesome!

Hot Toys continues to release superb sculpts of figures, toys, movie figures, game figures, etc. Honestly, no one beats them. Not only that, but you can see the artisans behind these sculpts on Hot Toys Facebook page.
Sideshow Collectibles has Ada Wong available now for pre-order. She ships June 2013.
She's a sixth scale figure meaning 12 inches tall. She has 25 points of articulation, 7 interchangeable hands, guns, crossbows, daggers, a suitcase and so much more. Her price isn't too bad at $199.99. Hot Toys are, after all, a work of art. Art ain't cheap kids.
