McFarlane Toys has announced a licensing agreement with Crystal Dynamics to bring the legendary Tomb Raider brand to life with an exciting new collection of Lara Croft action figures. This collaboration marks a new chapter for fans and collectors of one of gaming’s most beloved heroes.
In celebration of the Tomb Raider franchise’s 30th anniversary, the inaugural release is a McFarlane Elite Edition Lara Croft, inspired by Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, the highly anticipated AAA re-imagining of the groundbreaking original 1996 game, currently in development by Crystal Dynamics and Flying Wild Hog. This 7″ scale figure will capture Lara in her classic look, complete with her signature weapons and accessories, providing fans with the definitive Lara Croft action figure to add to their collection. The figure will be timed to coincide with the game’s launch.
There will be more exciting updates to come, as the collection will expand in the future with additional action figures and collectibles based on Tomb Raider: Catalyst, the next bold evolution of the franchise.
All figures will be available for purchase online and through select retailers.
