Pyramid Head is the iconic monster/being/character from Silent Hill 2, Silent Hill: Homecoming, Silent Hill: The Arcade, and the Silent Hill movie. Ever since I first played the 2nd game I was horribly intrigued by him. The being is truly disturbing but somehow awesome as well.
Between Silent Hill 2 from 2001 and the Silent Hill film in 2006 Pyramid Head got a redesign. Apparently it was due to his helmet being too awkward to translate into an actual prop. Obviously this is false because people (including myself) have done cosplay of him using the old helmet style. Anyway, they changed him up for the movie and ever since then that's been the way he is represented. The changes are basically to his helmet, musculature, and outfit.
The whole point of this Pyramid Head talk is so I can show you these two wonderful plush versions of Pyramid Head that I received from my girlfriend for past holidays. She got them via Etsy which is a pretty cool shop from time to time. I just had to share their cuteness with the web!
The one on the left is the SH2 styled Pyramid Head while the one on the right follows design principles from the later version. Both are insanely adorable especially in person. The one on the right has a special surprise underneath his helmet as well... A "face" with two big black buttons for eyes.
