View Article on IGN

Ellie may be the human race’s last, best hope in The Last of Us, but that’s only if she survives the postapocalyptic wasteland long enough. Dark Horse is celebrating Ellie’s dangerous side with a pair of new The Last of Us busts depicting the iconic gaming heroine.

Get a closer look at The Last of Us: Ellie With Handgun Bust and The Last of Us: Ellie With Switchblade Bust in the slideshow gallery below:

Both of these busts measure 7.5 inches tall on a 3.5-inch base (adorned with plenty of cordyceps fungus, of course). One features Ellie wielding a handgun, while the other has her wielding her signature switchblade. Both versions were sculpted by Mat Brouillard with prototyping and paint by Substance Model Works.

The Last of Us: Ellie With Switchblade Bust will be the more limited of the two, with only 1000 units being sold worldwide. It’ll be sold exclusively on the Dark Horse Direct website. The Ellie With Handgun bust will be more widely available at comic shops and other retailers. Both versions are priced at $149.99 and are expected to ship between January and March of 2025.

Collectors attending San Diego Comic-Con this week can expect more announcements regarding Dark Horse’s upcoming collectibles, as well as opportunities to purchase in-stock and preorder items. SDCC runs from Wednesday, July 24 through Sunday, July 28. Be sure to check out the massive lineup of everything featured on IGN’s Comic-Con live show.
