Hi all,
These have appeared on eBay and are for sale via Spaceart in Germany.
I have mailed them and it seems they are based on a "Sidkit Worldcon" their words.
https://spaceart.de/produkte/br001-e.php
All metal with a superb burnished real gunmetal effect. Includes dummy shells and working leds.
Its nice to see a high end version available in Europe !!!
From the pics it looks very good although a bit pricey.
Does anyone have one of these or have anymore information.
Your thoughts and comments please. |

Thanks for sharing Outlaw...very nice repro but too expensive (better to buy a Coyle or a Tomen). I'm sure other will chime in in terms of accuracy and the likes.  |

Nice, but for that price, it ought to be much better...
- From the images, I get the distinct impression that it is, indeed, all metal — even in the parts that should be plastic, i.e. magazine and magazine well.
- Also, the colouring is less than screen accurate... This one is one uniform colour everywhere, including the butt plate!
Bearing in mind that both Coyle's and Tome's blasters are easily on par with this one and better, but cost 1/3rd less, even imported to Europe, well ... my prediction is that SpaceArt will be keeping theirs for a while.

Ouch at $1963.46 they sure should have it a long time...
For those within the USA you can get one with a real bulldog for that money.

Space Art's prices have always been double what they usually go for. Not sure if they are just showing off a collection or just hoping for some suckers that don't know how to get it elsewhere. They have had some nice builds done in the past of all kinds of garage kits including figures and vehicles though. Reminds me of a similar Japanese site that sell unique build of props and such. Whish I could remember what the name of it was though.

It seems to me this particular piece has a tendency to summon a rather uniform response in this community...

Well, at least it shows that this board is consistant with its critique  |

Well, It looks like our copycat is a spammer. Hopefully our illustrious leader will take care of them soon. I am guessing they have been cutting and pasting some of their messages.
