Lara Croft bundles up for awesome, pricey statue photo

Despite the fact that Tomb Raider Underworld was released back in 2008, Sideshow Collectibles is still planning on releasing a polystone statue of that game's version of Lara Croft. And if I do say so myself, it's pretty awesome.

Called "Snow Day," the statue depicts a bundled up Croft taking a moment away from looking at her treasure map to look up and say "Hey, have you got $260 burning a hole in your pocket for some of this?" Yes, this statue will cost $259.99 when it's released, and will come with a limited edition print by artist Adam Hughes. Don't want the print? The statue alone will run you $249.99.

Again, I'll admit this is pretty awesome, but at this price, it's for true collector's only. I guess that why the company is called Sideshow Collectibles, amirte?

I would want that but then it would be that much harder to get laid. Think about it. Lara Croft just watches you in the corner... Creepy.

I'm surprised Lara Croft is still relevant.

@Magnalon;
With a figure like hers, she's always relevant.

After seeing that lego SR1-Normandy, nothing impresses me.

I'm with Patriot: Adam Hughes is a fantastic talent in the world of comic art.

The face and to some degree hair looks completely unlike any of the Lara Croft game renditions. If I saw that at a friends place and no one had told me it was a "Lara Croft" statue, I'd have said "What's up with the weird statue of a heavily armed chick with grossly disproportionate hooters? Are you a serial killer or something?"

Adam Hughes is awesome but that sculpture doesn't capture his artistic direction very well at all. If it did, though, I would buy it for certain.

Is incredible how people complain about every single detail. :O

But if I have the money in my hands right now, I'll buy it with no regrets.

Electric utility stocks and their dividend feature is great for retirement plans and a conservative way to play the recovery of the economy in a regular investment account.
