Our very own Finhead mocked both these up. :love

First - the Begins holder. Not easy finding reference of this thing. But it is on the dvd believe it or not. Here are the screen grabs.

Modding your grapple to function with this is not for the lighthearted. Those are obviously 4 rare earth magnets in the holder. So a resin grapple will require the same or metal plate installed at the proper points. Those areas are not easily accessible on the grapple and going to require some drilling, cutting etc. Then trying to hide them on the grapple is another issue altogether. Not sure I would use this if I was wearing the suit. As a result I don't know if many people will one of these and if we will bother molding it. We will start an interest thread in the Junkyard area to gage interest though. :wink

I think the TDK holster is much more costume friendly.

We will make them either right or left handed. It sits in the holster on its own but we still recommend installing just one small magnet in the grapple so it doesn't fall out when you're chasing a baddy. :lol And we will be using a mechanism that will allow the holster to not only pivot at the top but also click and remain in place at any angle. :cool

An interest thread will appear in the trading area later today.
