TR25 | Weta Reveals Finalized Version of “The Lost Valley” Statue

With pre-orders now live worldwide for Tomb Raider’s 25 year celebration statue, Weta Workshop has finally unveiled the finished product inspired by one of the most iconic moments and levels in gaming.

The 1:4 scale figure measures 80 cm tall and weighs almost 13 kg! It's nearly twice as big as their previous “Queen of the Jungle” piece based on Shadow of the Tomb Raider, which can be seen in the side-by-side comparison photo below.

Features

1:4 scale

Limited Edition

Made from high-quality polystone

Size: 40.6 cm x 80 cm x 44.4 cm (WHD, 15.98" x 31.49" x 17.48")

Weight: 12.61 kg (27.8 lbs)

A video was also released today, showcasing the statue in all its glory.

The studio sent out a newsletter last week announcing pre-order dates while giving out more details on availability. They revealed that this time it will be a very limited run and, as such, only the orders made during April 19th – May 3rd will dictate the final production size. After that, however, the statuette will be gone forever with no other way of purchasing it.

“It takes hundreds of hours to design, sculpt, model make, mold, and paint the prototype for each new Weta Workshop piece. Whether it be a prop replica, beautiful environment or iconic character, we treat our collectibles with the same level of care and attention to detail that we bring to our film work.”

So, if you were planning on getting it, don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity of owning such a masterfully crafted collectible. It's a total showstopper, sure to delight anyone, especially the most die-hard fans and collectors of the franchise. You can pre-order it through Weta's official webstore.

Explore the TR25 web portal where the Tomb Raider community team will be posting some fun articles and exciting announcements along the year. For all the news regarding the 25th anniversary of the franchise, be sure to visit our dedicated TombRaider25 tag.
