Gaming Heads - Classic Tomb Raider Lara Croft Statues - The Toyark - News

[vgc2]

Technically they've announced 6 statues, but this is the only one available for pre-order right now. Not sure how old this news is but here are all 6 they will be releasing:

This must be a joke!! This statue is 1/6, does not even have the same level of detail their 1/4 has, and the price point is only $60 less than the 1/4 th? I don’t know, but it feels rediculous!

I was actually thinking of getting the whole set, but now.... I think I will pass!

hmm... it's based on the classic original game, the likeness is very accurate. not really fair to compare it to the 1/4th scale in my opinion, as that one is based on the new Lara.

Nice! I'll keep my eye out for those as well. That'll be a massive display when completed.

The 1/4 of Osiris is old Lara. I agree it’s unfair to compare because 1/4 are usually superior in level of detail. But that is why this price point doesn’t make much sense though. You have this one which is a 1/6 priced only $60 less. That is just weird! There is almost zero texturing on her body and clothing in this version too.

Ah, I thought you were referring to their other 1/4th scale (survivor). Either way, Temple of Osiris came out after Lara was "updated" for Tomb Raider 2013. I wouldn't expect texture or fine detail on this figure, because she didn't have any. So it is true to the original.

I don't know the exact process they go through to create these so I can't comment on the price point. They're all overpriced in my opinion lol.

Yeah this does look cool, but the price seems high to me. I like the old school look but you'd think being so plain and simple it would result in a cheaper product. But they're only making 60 of the limited edition ones, so maybe they're super low runs.

lol true about the overpriced aspect !

And yeah, it’s definitely true to the original as you say (although the Anniversay version did have texture on her clothes). What I meant was in terms of effort needed to justify the price, it didn’t add up given that they have a more larger scale statue with much more detail for just $60 more.

Wow her body dimensions are crazy lol

Wish I had $280!
