Lara have never looked better than in the Legend art and this looks really nice, but I'm not sure I would like to spend the PF prize for her. We'll see.

Yeah, it's pretty badass! I hoping to see a 12-incher or two, especially with the newer female body the developed. Her Legend look is cool, but the Anniversary version would be awesome!!!!!:D

I'm liking the fact that Sideshow is getting more and more video game licenses. I hope Kojima would let them do some Metal Gear PF's, but he might be dealing exclusively with Medicom sadly.

Damn. I ment Anniversary.:emperor Mixed up the games. The Anniversary art is the best she has ever looked! So this is based on Legend? Have been in production for a while then? It should be an Anniversary PF as that takes Lara full circle. I'm doubtful now. I'll think I'll wait for Anniversary product to come out before I'll buy a new Lara. I'll maybe change my mind when I see the full figure though (so to speak :D)

Man, they're going the whole nine yards with this license. I can't see this being the most profitable license, but I'm sure there will be some cool stuff.
And it looks like the PF will be 250 then since that's the highest price.
Hmm.... legendary sccale busts, or the scale those Spider-Man ones used?
EDIT: Woops... 299 was the highest price. I'm sure it's gonna be an awesome PF, but $300? Dang...I better see an awesome base!

I have zero interest in Lara Croft, and I was never a fan of the games, but this looks to be like a pretty good PF.

Yeah, I get the feeling that it was part of the license agreement from Edois, that SSC had to take on other collectible product types to do the ones they really wanted. I don't see anything other then PF and 1:6 doing well but we shall see.
It's strange, I asked the question here a long time ago whether anyone wanted Video Game collectibles from Sideshow, the reception to the idea wasn't very encouraging.

Very nice detail on the base and on the costumes. Wasn't really impressed with the teaser pic, but those of the set-up at Comic-Con do it more justice. Nice looking piece, though not for me.
Now, those Legacy of Kain pieces someone suggested, well, that would be a match made in heaven.

I was pretty shocked to see this at SDCC and that Sideshow picked up this license. It's a fantastic PF and I so ordered it. And I'm glad it's the game version rather than Angie. I used to have a couple of the Sota Lara's based on Angie and a couple resin game version Lara's but I got rid of them because of the scale. This is right up my ally since it's 1/4 scale and mixed media.

Is that 360 new? I never recalled seeing it before, and some things look pretty different. The hair has changed, the clothes are better fitting, and the bottom of Excalibur has some weird purple glow. I think this may be the production piece, in which case, it looks really good.

Just waiting on my third Flex-payment to be withdrawn next month and she will be mine!!! :love :rock

You're such a loser dude and too stupid to even realize how much of a loser you make yourself look like. For at least the 5th time I own both systems and have compared them. You have not, You have formed your opinion based on what some other people have said and ignored the side you refuse to listen you. You're a narrowminded twit who only sees what he wants to see. :lol

Ummm...right. First off I agree with The Ill Jedi. I was talking about the Lara Croft PF figure and you had to bring up console wars and not just insult my console, but me. Which shows how tasteless and classless you really are. You need to bring your console war into every other thread, because of your insecurities to prove just how awesome the Microsoft brick is...(and I'm the fanboy). LOL.

So anyway back to more important things and people, I don't think we will get PF G.I.Joes, but I hope we do.

Is that 360 new? I never recalled seeing it before, and some things look pretty different. The hair has changed, the clothes are better fitting, and the bottom of Excalibur has some weird purple glow. I think this may be the production piece, in which case, it looks really good.
Ok so this got blown way up. I think when we were talking '360' we were talking about the actual 360 view no? Like, a picture that we turn full around to see the whole figure/statue?! Not the actual console. Unless I'm lost now. Huh! See what happens when we go off topic.
I thought I'd be upset that I didn't get the chance to pre-order the PF exclusive, but I think I like her better without the exclusive item. I think it kind of blocks her in a way. Maybe it's just me. Ya'll will have to post some photos of her with it so I can see. Sideshows never look the same to me.
Ok so, back on topic...
I don't remember ever seeing a different 360 version. But I mostly just go for the backstage pass. Maybe it was the lighting that made excalibur glow. We'll have to wait and see... *pouts*

I imagine when you get on the waitlist it's ages after the fact the item has been sold out or been released. Usually if you get on a waitlist before an item ships, you get your waitlist CONVERTED into an actual order. For example. I ordered the regular Captain America PF because the exclusive had sold out. Funny thing is this piece sold out fast, and has now become a very sought after piece. One would suggest if you put yourself on a waitlist six months after the initial preordering date, one would fail to have their WL convert. Well, luckily for me, mine did. Now I have an ex in my home. Minty fresh!

I get what you mean now. Very cool. I am paying a tiny bit less for her so I don't mind missing out on the exclusive, this time. But for next time if it's something I want bad enough I will definitely jump onto the wait list. Thanks for filling me in. :)

and at a larger scale.
As to which 'version' we are going to get, the easy to spot difference is the hair, be it at the front or back. While the gallery images have the hair at the back, both the quicktime 360 and back stage pass show the statue with the hair at the front, at least when you see Scott at the same time. Its very hard to pick, but I had a close look and you can see the hair coming over the front. Whats confusing, is that in the video, when they show and pan over still images, they are using the old gallery images, with the hair at the back.
So, I'm going to stick my neck out a little, and say that the one we will get will be the one in the 360 vid, with the hair at the front (I bet that got change due to likely breaking of the ponytail when it was at the back, now they can support the statue via the head and shoulders in the packaging).
What was a little surprising was that she wasn't listed as shipping in the next 30 days in the last newsletter. Which is strange, since in theory its going to ship in June.

Have you even looked at the 360? That is in no way an optical illusion. The scrolling images used in the backstage pass are older ones, but the parts where he's standing next to the figure, you can see the hair is in front now. The image gallery is old too.

So your saying that the ppl that have already made 2 flex payments from when it first went up, have yet to be charged for their June payment (which was orginally the 20th of June).
The flex payment schedule that is listed on the SS site now is for those that are placing orders now (ppl on the wait list are starting to be contacted) and hence they won't get the PF till around August/September.
So, since waitlist ppl are being contacted, I currently still expect it to ship by the end of this month and the SS website still says June for the shippng date.
As for the hair, nice to see you now admit that its been shown at the front and back. So yes, no one knows for sure yet which it will be, its just that based on the back stage video, my guess is it will be at the front.
And if your wondering where I'm getting my info, check out post 106: http://www.statueforum.com/showthread.php?t=61261&page=11

So, with the latest newsletter out, there is a new 360 view of the regular PF which clearly has the hair at the front (the shorts look better too). I think its a fair bet that this new 360 would be based on final production statues, so my front hair guess looks to be on the money.
Strange thing again is that she's not listed in the shipping 30 days, but she's also not listed in being delayed either and the SS website (which they just updated to add the new 360 view), still has June as shipping date. So with luck we are still good for this month.

Might be the end of the month or the very beginning of July but they don't want to say right now.

So thats why they keep talking about it in the newsletters, but just no firm shipping yet. Still it was always going to be late June, chances are it was a case of will it make or won't it and now its slipped into July.

Yes, some ppl do get rather "uniformed" when their own eyesight is clearly wrong. But instead of admitting it, they then really go off and just tell others to shut up.

I think August or September.
Then, till sideshow confirmed a small delay and lets face it, till one gets facts from sideshow, there is no other source other then what they have already said, which up till a day ago, all their other info still said June (at the time of writting this, the SS website still says June), I think it was fair to question ones source of facts for any 'delay', especially given how I was attacked for even saying that the hair has been shown at both the front and back of the statue.

Not heard anything more, but the Aragorn 15-20 day notice poped up pretty fast and out of nowhere (along with somewhat different production images, but I don't think we will have that problem, the 360 already seems to be final production). So yeah, its like SS keep talking about it as if its just around the corner, but their just not willing to set a firm date.
So in theory its just around the corner, they just don't know exactly which corner, but then a number of things have been getting delayed and not just SS stuff. Lets see what this weeks newsletter brings, unless the notice goes out beforehand.

As for production pics, I think the back stage pass video, show the final statue were you have Scott on screen at the same time. When they pan over images these look to be the old pics. Also, it looks like the 360 spin file is more final statue.
But at this point, one may as well wait for photo's of final in hand statues, which I guess is only about 2 weeks away.

I too am ordering from a local store, but ppl on the Statue Forum have posted their 15 day notice email from Sideshow and that was about 1-2 days ago. Hence, if it all holds true, I figured ppl in the US that ordered direct from SS, should see it in about 2 weeks.
Mind you, that then hits SDCC rather head on, so I wouldn't be too surprised if it blows out another week. But even so, many in the US should be posting in-hand pics before the end of the month.
This thing still hasn't shipped yet? I cancelled ages ago, abou the same time as I cancelled robocop, didn't both get released about the same time? Lara sure is taking her sweet *** time.

Why thank you! I cannot wait to finally get her. I feel like I've been waiting forever and I didn't even know about her till a couple of months ago.

Well, that 15 day notice was for ppl in the US. Since your in the UK, I suspect they are waiting a little longer to confirm arrival date in the UK warehouse.
Tho I did notice that this newletter did have it confirmed for both US and UK within the 30 day shipping, so end of the month, middle of next for just about everyone it seems.

What's a happy chappy?
hmm, is that a serious question. In case it is...
chappy (chap) = dude, bloke, man
happy = pleased, overjoyed
In other words, he is now very happy that his waitlist converted.
Wonder if we will see in-hand pics this week, it must be getting very close to shipping in the US by now.

Except thats the prototype, I'd expect that to be much more covered on the shipping one Nash. Speaking of shipping, seems ppl are now getting notice on credit card being charged on the 22 July. So she should be moving out by end of the week.
As for what Shai Hulud is on about, I have no idea.

Check out the later Quicktime 360, I think that is more what you should be expecting, notice the hair at the front.
However, I could be wrong, we'll likely find out in a couple of days.

Sweet, that was a nice little video, really looking forward to some hi-quality still images now.
And the confusion has also now been explained about the hair being shown by SS on the back and front, its seperate and connected by a magnetic, so I assume it does still work both ways.
Anyway, looks darn cool, now I just got to wait for my local shop pre-order to show up, still, at least it wasn't delayed till August/September.

I like how you fix your stuff instead of ^^^^^ing about wanting a replacement, even though you were very entitled to it. But then again, you know how to fix your stuff. :D
Congrats, she is a gorgeous piece. And honestly, with a clean break like that she is an easy fix. The paint apps on your's is gorgeous. May have returned her and gotten no chips or breakage, but who knows if you would have gotten as stellar of a paint job as this one shows through in your pics.

Hello all, I got my PF Lara Croft ES today, stupid Fed Ex never knocked on my door, and i waited all day yesterday, until I opened the door 10 min after they showed up wondering where they were, and got the we were here door tag. Stupid Fed Ex Ninjas (even my dogs didnt bark) do they have to be so sneaky, just freakin knock like you mean it. Anyway I opted to just pick her up at the Fedex terminal and shes as gorgous as ever, she will have a nice home.

Anyone from the EU get theirs yet? I was billed on the 27th of July and I haven't heard a word since then.
Even allowing for the 10-12 business day transfer time I think the wait on this is a small bit excessive :(

Yeah I'm still hesitant on getting one of these, but the anniversary gear would've been the clincher. And it's still feasible that we'll see one, which would only give me buyer's remorse over the Legend PF.
