Capcoms Physical Ecosystem Expansion

Potential for New Character Figures
The Resident Evil Veronica storefront entry points to an expansion of this figure ecosystem, though the current database files do not specify the exact in-game item drops, character unlocks, or cosmetic variations linked to the scanning mechanism.
