I have their dragonborn statue and it's amazing. I was a little worried when I ordered it because of the same reasons you mentioned. I found the paint and production to be excellent. I preordered Lara as soon as I received their email. I have their skyrim talos statue on preorder as well. Search YouTube for video reviews of their pieces. Really well done. There may be a video review of the dragonborn statue on the forum. Can't remember for sure and I'm typing this from my phone lol

Lara is a definite buy for me. The game is up there on my favorites from this year and I'm really impressed with the prototype images. The lack of enthusiasm is somewhat surprising; a lot of people seem to be banking on Sideshow.
And thanks for the discount codes dao2!

I agree. You typed all of that while I was typing from my phone. I love the sideshow pieces, but I am glad gaming heads is doing this. Nice to have options.

The people behind gaming heads have a lot of experience. I have statues from SS and GH and well ..I have less issues with gaming heads than SS to be honest. They really deliver.

Definitely a must buy as a TR fan. It's also sculpted by the great Alejandro Pereira. Will get the exclusive even though I will be displaying her with the bow.

I'm a big TR fan and it's not that I don't like this but I collect and prefer PF/mixed media statues over fully sculpted. That's why I'm hoping SS does a PF version of this Lara. It think I would look awesome and compliment my other Laras, it would also look great next to my PF Nathan Drake wherever that comes.

I can't believe people like this. While I'm no painter, I have to say this looks very amateurish for a $289 statue and the face definitely feels off. I'd rather get Sideshows far superior Nathan Drake over this any day. The pose, while somewhat iconic for this character, isn't really statue worthy either.
