"That's not to say that the Grace Ashcroft figure is much better. Both of them look like cheap wedding cake toppers. Amiibos typically feature more stylized characters like most of Nintendo's heroes, so they don't often have to be very detailed. Resident Evil Requiem , however, is a photorealistic game that would lend itself to a more detailed statue. These figures' faces are so generic-looking that if it weren't for Leon's distinctive swooping hair, I probably would have a hard time identifying him."
"And trust me, I've looked at his face extensively for decades. Where is his old man scruff? "Reading the comments I feel like I'm taking crazy pills, but I must admit I'm not familiar with Amiibo and their usual quality," Nexxtic wrote on . "Are they always this... rough? I think these look pretty bad, especially Leon. Like one of those bad Switch ports.""
Grace Ashcroft and Leon S. Kennedy amiibo figures are scheduled for summer 2026 and will be sold separately. Both figures exhibit low-detail, generic sculpts that resemble cheap wedding cake toppers rather than photorealistic statues. The photorealistic style of Resident Evil Requiem would lend itself to more detailed collectible figures, but the amiibos' faces look generic and make Leon difficult to recognize, with notable absence of his signature scruff. Online reaction mixes bemusement and criticism, with comments calling the Leon figure rough or likening it to a bad Switch port. Buyers hope for mid-range pricing around $15–$20 rather than $40+.
