Looking to get a value appraisal of this piece. Unfortunately I have to let it go but honestly I have no idea what a fair asking price is at this point. Apologies in advance if this is the wrong section of the forum for this.

This is the first version of the Tomenosuke Pro. looks the be the regular run. Last ones I saw go for around $2,000 in new condition. Others may have better info on this one now. Sorry you have to let it go. Very nice piece.

Not easy to get a value on these blasters nowadays because Tomenosuke have released many versions of the blasters over the past years and still selling more blasters at the moment. Plus they recently got licencing approval which changes things for collectors choice options or preferences.
Check ebay sales to get an idea of what they are selling for.
There are more Blade Runner blaster collectors and Blade Runner fans emerging because of the new Blade Runner movie and interest resulting in the 1982 movie as a result.
Also, the blaster price is affected by the condition of the blaster and the box / booklet condition. Check also that the blaster trigger still works and rotates the bullet cylinder. These can sometimes jam or cease working correctly. Check LED lights still work OK as well. etc. etc.

The first place i looked was ebay, but I have never seen this version listed or sold there. That is the main reason I came here to inquire. |

Awesome thanks. It looks like that one has silver foil on the box. Mine has gold foil. Do you know if that signifies a different version? |

Silver foil was a limited edition weathered model. Tomenosuke made far fewer of them. |
