Tombraider

Playmates acquired the rights to produce the Lara Croft figures at the time she was only featured in video games. At that time, Tomb Raider was a hot up-and -coming property and we very fortunate to be the first sculpting studio to get to sculpt her.

It was such a big hit that Varner Studios picked up its own license and successfully produced 3 resin models (see portfolio under Varner Studios to view them.)

The Playmates Tomb Raider series consisted of four, 6 inch figures and three, 9 inch figures in their own dioramas executed in the video C-G form.

Later on, as the Tomb Raider movie was being produced, we were commissioned to sculpt Angelina Joli as Lara Croft figures. We sculpted five, 6 inch figures and 2, eleven inch dolls. All-in-all, the Tomb Raider projects were a wonderful challenge.
