The imminent showdown with the jaguar catches Lara unaware. She is struck with the epiphany that she must become like the jaguar to stay alive. With stealth, Lara must stalk through the undergrowth, attack abruptly then disappear like the predator. Lara Croft’s arsenal increases her odds of survival. Seen here with her signature bow and arrow, twin climbing axes and pistol. Lara can strike from afar or up close and personal with the weapons at her disposal. And yet, the jungle is unforgiving. This highly-detailed sculpt bears all the telltale signs of Lara’s battles: scarred cheek, muddied clothing and rusty machete.
CREATING LARA CROFT
Weta Workshop concept designer Daniel Falconer was charged with reimaging this scene from Shadow of the Tomb Raider. His design was then transformed into 1:4 scale polystone by sculptor Daniel Cockersell, who worked digitally in Zbrush to immortalise Lara Croft as a collectible figure. Weta Workshop’s exclusive range of Shadow of the Tomb Raider collectibles was revealed for the first time at San Diego Comic-Con 2018. As the star attraction, Lara Croft quickly drew a crowd of cosplayers and pop culture fans eager to own a piece of the highly anticipated game.
A Limited Edition piece of just 750, Lara Croft was developed by the same Weta Workshop artists and technicians who work on our film projects. Please note: The collectible is based on the height of Lara Croft’s in-game model in the Shadow of the Tomb Raider game. Images are of a pre-production prototype. Each statue is painted by hand and slight variations will occur.
