If it's like other kits they sell probably a RECAST.:rolleyes

I helped a friend of mine develop this kit of the sandman gun. It can be built as either the movie or TV version. It also has room for electronics. I have done 4 build ups for him with an LED in the barrel.
I just finished a custum gun for myself with the life clock crystal in the grip. The crystals light up when the gun is armed.

Yes life clocks are in the palm of the hand. Like I said, this is a custom sandman gun. I wanted to do something different with it to set it apart from all the others.

If you want an in-expensive solid one that, with a little work, can make an excellent replica, try Wilco Models.
This is from one of his kits. I hollowed out the front barrel (his are solid), added an emitter nozzle inside the flash suppressor, reduced the grip and frame by at least 3/16 of an inch side to side and front to back (he states his grips are cast oversized for a tight fit), added the missing 2 vents and 2 screws on the right side of the gun and replaced the rear knob to a slightly more accurate one.

The gun is armed with the toggle switch in front of the trigger.

Still on my workbench. :lol
I had intentions of putting them on but ended up going with the fantasy look. How it would have been if it had been a real futuristic gun and not a prop. :cool
I don't care for it at all. It's an odd cross between a TV and film version.
But, hey; if you got it cheap and fills in a spot on the shelf, rock-on!
Should you ever get the itch for a working piece, I'm on my final run.

There seems to have been quite a few changes to the MiM version as compared to the one you worked on.
The red one is a lot like my old model the white one is not like mine at all.
At first look I thought it was a complete copy but at second look it does have a number of changes...
It has been a few years from the last run...
So it is not a recast. It maybe a reworking of one of my old models...
