After having a few bad experiences with NECA's Tomb Raider Player Select line, I was reluctant to pre-order this figure. However, after seeing images of the actual figure, I immediately fell in love and ordered it. The sculpt is far better than the previous 7-inch Lara Crofts that we've been subjected to by NECA. Articulation is minimal (as usual) and there's also the bad paint applications (however, this time it isn't as bad). Lara has the following articulation: a ball-jointed neck, ball-jointed shoulders, ball-jointed torso, swivel wrists, and swivel ankles. For an action figure (make that a Lara Croft action figure) she has quite minimal articulation. Swivel/bendable knees and arms would be a much needed addition to make this an "action" figure, let alone a Lara Croft one. As for paint applications, Lara's face was dead pale, however, the rest of her body was sunburned. Also her left leg wasn't properly connected to her body. Despite the obvious lack of quality control on NECA's part, this Lara came out pretty nicely. Lack of accessories for Lara is another minus. I haven't played this game yet, but I'm pretty sure she has more guns than just her signature pistols (I guess we could blame that on the recession ;P). If you still want to purchase this figure, make sure you get a good look at it in person, so you won't be disappointed.

I just Got this figure, It's a NECA so it can't be that good, hollow and a lack of movment. But the sculpt is better then the last LC figure they made, I would only give it a 3 but the face the new face that is, is the nicest I have seen, they gave her it more rounded profile, and she is just real cute now, so 4 stars for a nice face improvement, but only 2 guns Eeeee..... Oh well if you are in to Tomb Raider Figures then get this one for sure.

lets make on thing clear. NECA makes excellent figures, in my opinion better than the 100 dollars sideshow collectibles. i will buy a neca anyday over sideshow. i was searching for a tomb raider figure, ( the best looking one of all) and thru research i found out that THIS ONE is the best. so why pay 80 dollars more & get an ugly figure?? i had the sideshow one in my hand, ( and yes i had the money)..but didnt quite come through. i though her head was too big, and looked like an old lady. this one takes the cake. not the anniversary one (the ugliest of all), not the player select tranny version..buy this one.... its pure eye candy...

Gorgeous detail on this action figure, really captures the spirit of Lara Croft. Nice!

This is one of my favorite Lara figures. It captures the Underworld game in great detail.
