Hey everyone,

For those interested, just noticed that this went up for sale tonight.

A bit pricey, but it does look good. I imagine it's rather enormous.

I hope to assume by the steep price, that it's going to be metal!:confused

Ha! I was so excited when I saw it up for sale I completely missed that part. I can't believe it weighs 30 lbs.

I have a Samaritan on pre-order so this is pretty much out of the question. It's worth it, though, I think.

 

[Funky]

When I get confirmation that it's metal, I'll order one. That looks amazing! :eek

 

[GuntahKela]

30 pounds? The shipping fee will be murder.

By looking at it, it couldn't be too difficult to scratch-build one with bashed riffle parts and pluming pipes.

 

[Scareb]

I badly badly want it, but a $750 price tag plus shipping is brutal. I might have to wait a few months and see if it sells out. it doesn't help I already have the Sammie and PFF on order and I don't even have a job.

 

[Betamin]

For that price, the damned thing had better actually fire rounds. :lol

 

[PlanetLII]

Too pricey for me :thumbsdown

I love the rounds with the bottles on :lol

Looks like faux wood for the grip. Shame.

 

[Gigatron]

Damn cool, but way out of my price range. Thankfully, those pictures are nice and hi-res, should you need any reference to build your own at a later time :love.

It not metal. The metal Samaritan weighs 27 lbs and this is more than double the size.

That's too bad!:unsure
I just can't see paying that much for a resin prop!:thumbsdown
For that much money, I could probably have a machine shop machine the parts for me to build a metal one, and have money left over!:rolleyes

Crap - that's too bad. I did think it looked a bit resin-y in those prototype pics. I wonder if it may have 'some' metal parts.

 

[cheviot]

God help me, I've preordered.

 

[CeSquared]

The description says "materials TBD".

 

[Scareb]

Actually the 27 pounds is for the shipping weight of the entire piece. The samaritan weighs "about 10 pounds"

Are those yellow marks on the stock supposed to be there? I don't know if this is a photo of the original prop, but it looks like the painted on woodgrain chipped away, revealing the real material the stock is made of. Unless the premise is that Hellboy painted on fake woodgrain in addition to the letters and graphic, I would suspect that these yellow areas are simple damage to the prop and should not be reflected in the replica.
