I strongly agree with some of what you said as it echos what I also stated a few posts ago. I like everything about this diorama, except the protagonists, which as you said feel very lifeless compared to the rest of the statue. The dynamic movement and detail of the zombies are the best part, and the protagonists don't synnergize well the whole action piece.
To be honest I don't even think this was the not realized by the concept artists. I think they were so focused on capturing that iconic front cover shot of RE 2 re-make, that they must have felt they wanted that more than to actually make sense with the scene itself. I feel like I still want to buy this, but It would be an easier sell if they were to rework the two protagonist and put some life into their facial expressions and poses, especially after firing weapons and being jumped/pinned up against a wall.
