So, anyway I'm here to suggest a companion to a male adventure fig(see Nathan drake thread), based off of Laura Croft. She's been in a countless number of settings so making vigs would be easy. Since it's Wills minifig he could easily tweak how she looks so it would open up to a broader audience.For weaponery(spl) I would say duel pistols would suffice (I'm thinking Auto 9's) and a grenade or two.

Well, this is an interesting if not intriguing idea.

I suppose you mean Lara Croft, but to avoid any problems, she could be called "Laura Craft" (sounds a bit German too)

But what weapon(s) would you give to her?

I've eaten her instant Mac and Cheese product. Quite good when you add in some tune, diced tomatoes, and a bit of dill.

But yes, should Will ever decided to create a female adventurer fig, many of the details and (of course) name would be unique creations of his so to not infringe on Eidos's copyrights.

Of the BA accessories available now, the M1911 is still probably the best given the the Auto-9 is really too big for someone to wield one in each hand.

I suppose you are talking about a certain female cook I don't know of?

Why not the micro uzi's also? As I remember, her weapons were pistols, shotgun, uzis, M... 4?, grenade launcher, harpoon,...

Indeed the M1911 would serve well, though.

Yes, I grue up watching my dad play the old games, pretty fun stuff. Anyway, a Laura Croft would be a cool minifigure. As for the weapons, I think that two M23s and a M47 would do the trick. Oh, and I think in the Laura Croft 3, (the old game) she has a MP5 aswell.

You're good Kid, real good, but as long as I'm around you'll always be second best, shee?

Just a quick play on the Craft name

If Will made Lara's USP that would be awesome!

Indeed, perhaps you should suggest it in the forum?

[MOD - There's already a USP thread going right here! - badger] Ahh i see, thanks for pointing it out.

And as for Lara's weapons, it would depend on the era you went for (ex. the old Lara or the new one in Legends) Automatically the dual MK-23's would be most closely resembled to Lara's twin custom USP's. And dual uzi's would be nice but a shotgun just wouldnt be the original tomb raiders style.

Atleast, this is my opinion

I'm thinking this hair, and this head. Thank you for your time. :)

I love M21's.

I'm not joking. I love them.

Coolkid1121, your links are broken.

If I were going to say for appearance:

* Sand Green Torso
* Yellow Arms
* Black Hands
* Black Pelvis
* Yellow Legs
* Possibly some Custom Decals by Damien

Or, as an alternative to Damien, you could always go with some of the Decals Justin Stebbins has produced, although they are not Waterslides.

BrickArms will never use the decals of Justin Stebbins. Though they're fine works in their own right, Will prefers to use higher quality waterslide decals on his custom minifigs. Not to mention, he only uses original designs or the works of Damien with his custom minifigs.

Still, feel free to purchase Stebbins' decals and BrickArms to create a custom minifig of your own. :)

Crud. I was going to say Agent Trace's head and hair. And yea, twin silver M1911's, and an M47 unscoped would work.

I love M21's.

I'm not joking. I love them.

I like the idea of 2 M1911's and the shotgun, but maybe a MP5 instead of an M4. I like the idea of having Lara Croft as a custom Minifig:)

A good idea! Maybe some sort of variation among Minifig Gender might be good.

The Idea of the M1911 being her dual pistols is a good idea, but maybe if they were silver. Also, what about an M23? They could be a great stand in for Lara's USP's and a great weapon for Laura Craft. The M47 is a good idea, but maybe an MP5 or M4 Carbine would be nice.

I agree. The hair is almost perfect and the head might be a great match!
