Tomb Raider Barbie Doll Releasing 9 March 2018

Hang on I’ll say again Tomb Raider Barbie doll releasing 9 March 2018.  Erm….no, no, no, no, no. Ok yes!
I’m such a big Tomb Raider fan I can’t not buy this and yet feel very, very wrong doing it haha!
The official Barbie doll of Alicia Vikander’s portrayal of Lara Croft is merchandise for the upcoming new film coming out next month which is based on the 2013 Tomb Raider game reboot. The film looks good so will it break the rules and actually be a decent film based on a game?

I do have a daughter so at least I can blame her when I go to Smyths to buy a Lara Croft Barbie doll and avoid a red face. I never thought it my 35 years on this planet that I would one day own a Barbie. Well I did play with my cousin’s because she had a cool pink Ferrari back in the day but that’s another story.
The doll is $29.99 in the US so estimated to be around £21 here.
