Hoping I can finally own a good replica of this blaster.

If the price is right, It will be THE kit hands down short of an actual firearm.

Heh, agree; and after last year's events the other popular choice is never, ever going to be an option, for me. :lol This looks like a new no. 1 contender to lighten my wallet. Do we know what the materials will be?

How many japanese men does it take to assemble a Bladerunner gun?

Answer solved!

I love the the photos and graphics from their blog.

I don't know, I still would say Rich's last run with the removable ammo clip is still the closest you can get to the original.

I'm just about to order a Tomenosuke Blaster Pro.

How is this different to the last Pro run, is it just self assembly?

 

[Zenwalker]

I just have one thing to say: I wish I knew how to read Japanese.

Well the "PRO" is a pre-built replica... finest quality, superior workmanship. :cool

The PRO has gone through several revisions, the first one was "as built by," then we got the all-black police version, and the current one is the "Worldcon" version, slightly weathered.

Only 300 of each version was made, so act now if you want the PRO.

This new thing we're seeing in this thread, is an assembly kit. I have no info yet on pricing, materials or how this will be different than the PRO.

Any kit is for sure going to have the same precision parts at a minimum.
Hopefull the barrel can be metal now since it is a kit.

That's what I was hoping, an all metal replica. Still I really don't want to miss the opportunity of bagging a pre-made pro so will go ahead.

Just got to get through those pesky UK customs jobs worths!

 

[C06alt]

I wonder will it come with LED's

 

[nick daring]

Including Leds is the easy part. Manufacturing an entire pistol is the hard part.

 

[ToddsCostumes]

Interesting. Are the blaster "pro"s sold out? They were limited to 300 pcs?

 

[phase pistol]

300 each of the 3 editions: as built, police (black), and now the "Wor-Con" (Worldcon) version. The first two I guess are sold out but you can still find the Worldcon

???????????????????????????? ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Those have a special hand-weathering technique.

The latest!

If the price is right, It will be THE kit hands down short of an actual firearm.

Not counting the plastic parts.

Not counting the plastic parts.

I'm hoping since it is a kit now, that they finally get around the Japanese laws on gun replicas.

 

[nick daring]

Now that it's a kit, it shouldn't be too hard to put in a real bulldog, right?

 

[Zenwalker]

Hopefully they will tell us more details soon and if it will be all metal.

Need to know as I may buy the Worldcon version instead before it sells out.

If the kit is all metal I'll probably wait for that one.
