Well I hope its good because I just placed my order. I never had the skill to build one myself to my satisfaction so I hope this will scratch that itch.

I just heard from FE customer support, they’re working on a video now. No word when it will be available.

From their website:
THE REPLICA
The Factory Entertainment Team spent many hours studying surviving original props as well as various videos and images.
Charming as the eccentricities of the original props are, a deliberate choice was made to refine the replica by removing irregularities and anomalies that the original prop makers never intended to be seen.
A 3D model was created from scratch using the source material as reference. All asymmetry was corrected, any distortion was removed, and any incomplete detail was restored.
This resulted in a single optimized version of the blaster, and self-contained electronic light and sound effects were added.
The body of the blaster is crafted from high-quality resin and features hand-painted details. The barrel is made from metal.
Yep machined Resin and a metal barrel this go around

Looks very clean and more crisp. I own two RACs and they kept in a safe place….LOL. Don’t want anything happening to them. Hell I even kept the shipping label because why not…L.

This was completely unexpected (to me, at least). Cool to have something posted and then immediately available for ordering rather than the preorder wait that we are all so used to. Not my absolute favorite prop, but if the sounds/lights look good I might pull the trigger.
The email states it comes with a stand.

Well after thinking about this all day I pulled the trigger and ordered one. A little pricey but it looks well done.
Concur only missing the wire attachment that ran up the actors sleeve to the battery pack on the belt to power the strobe and I am glad to have it. I appreciate FEs cleaner look as a stylized collectible as well. They each have their own place.
