Zoomed in screen grab from nickytea showing the original gun next to a new version! Taken from this group shot from the set.

"the Lamest Promo Photo of All Time" ....that's hysterical!

As for the original blaster: Any idea which blaster is in the actual shot?

 

[Kylash]

Sure would be something if they used a commercially available one.

Could be a Tom but would a film buy a commercial version or be more inclined to make their own?

Here's a larger photo:

BTW. I like the Cibi tumbler glass in that shot too.

Would be pretty neat if they got their hands on the original.

Found an even better version, and worked over the guns myself. Sadly, it's a very grainy image, at least in the area we're most concerned about. The image data says it was taken Jan 17, 2016; that seem plausible?

Gave it a second pass. Still trying to keep it the retouching subtle.

The oval cross-section reminds me of the Timecop pistols. You think Syd Mead had a hand in the new one?

It looks like there's an illuminated red LED on it, too; right where the front of the trigger guard meets the frame.

I'm excited that PKD will be in the film

Is it just me, or does it look like the weaver knob is on there in place of the slotted screw?

Yup. Looks like the weaver knob to me as well

What do you think Harrison Ford is saying here? “I told J.J. you either kill off Han or you aren’t getting Han at all. And now I’m finally free!”

I sincerely hope that Ford doesn't have the director kill off Deckard. But if Deckard's a replicant, and there may be more than one copy, then there may be another... ANTHONY INGRUBER!!!!

From what I can see, I don't like the new design.

I have to agree. Not digging the new gun's design at all.

Take the original, cut the barrel off and stick on a cheese grater??.....

Take the original, kill off Deckard (that's the only reason Ford will sign on) and let Ryan Goosewing destroy a much loved memory from when I was young.

Kind of like letting Scott fcuk up an Alien sequel/prequel something....oh no wait...he already did that:lol

So now it's confirmed that the PKD will appear in the new movie... if the movie is a succes maybe we'll see new prop blasters on the market?
