Wow. I'm sorry that you received something like that, but that is one of the funniest figures I've seen in a long time.Exactly, glad I only got the one and not two. From the small sculpt, lanky body(broad shoulder/torso) and the clothes especially the top being too short….
Same here. But idk why there’s isn’t more of these 3rd companies doing more Lara figures that aren’t the reboot versions… we have the sideshow Lara, the flirty girl kit, the old phicen “Laura” figures which only included the Underworld and Cradle of Life outfits, pop toys Lara from the first movie, GT toys movie reboot kit and the three reboot figures swtoys. Maybe Lara isn’t as popular like resident evil at the moment… as I see from tomb raider is licensed statues lolWow WTH!? How could they screw her up that badly?! :S
And wtf happened to her shirt?! She just grow a foot overnight or something?! Lol
This is lame, even for SW.
Well that settles it then, I'm done with SW. Don't care what they make from here on out.
Really hope someone like Lim or MT will take a crack at Lara one of these days.
Still waiting on my figure.....harrumph.Well, mine just arrived today and upon reluctantly opening it and minor futzing, I was pleasantly surprised. It's not actually that bad. Sure, I still think the body is a touch on the large side, but I don't hate it in the detolf.
Apologies, I'm no photographer.

I did notice they improved the radio from previously releases, but its drastically undersized, just like the ice axe.
Pictured is the older radio, the newer one, and a test print of one I modelled using my real radio as reference. Same goes for the ice axe

Probably, but I think the thinner part goes over the left shoulder but had a hard time adjusting the harness since it was a bit loose. I used the Hot Toys Abigail body since the arms were perfect for Lara. But I had the swap them with a very cool body since the pants were too tight.
Yeah their last releases have been pretty meh form Jill to Rebecca and now Lara.Was gonna say, the arms on that body are near identical to in-game! I might try one of the Poptoys Xing series yet, probably won't work but at least they're cheaper than that HT body. Although I might just get tempted enough and get that HT body anyhow. lol
Gotta say though, other than the head sculpt and a few accessories, this is a pretty disappointing and half-assed figure imo. SW couldn't even be bothered to make the clothes fit with their own body.
Thanks! The belt I was planning on using was too big for the pants so went with that one. The blue undershirt does help as well. I’ve seen some body swaps using the phicen bodies and the clothes/sculpt aren’t meant for those bodies IMO. The shirt still goes up and you see her stomach and the sculpts ends up looking tiny on a tbleague body. I know people love those bodies but they don’t work with swtoys figures. I’ve you can find any of the Hot Toys female bodies with seamless arms it’ll look better. I have a one of those new Rey bodies coming in to test it out but the arms look thin so I’ll keep her in the Abigail body.That looks fantastic, Project_A! The undershirt and new belt are subtle, but really make a difference. I'm trying to navigate the various Phicen bodies to see if one might work for me. I've not ventured down the road of swapping body parts yet, so just a simple body swap is probably what I'll go for.
You might need too… I thought it about it selling the rest would be tricky since people seem more interested in the sculpt and some of the gear. Probably the only use for the clothing would be for this custom:Im desperate for that headsculpt . Im even considering buying the thing and selling it without headsculpt but I’ll have to find a buyer for it
You can use the tbleague bodies with swtoys, you just need to buy the smaller s27b body. My swtoys lara head is on one.Thanks!
