Not sure if this one is available outside of Japan.

EDIT: Preorder December 2017 at Tomenosuke Japan Store:

Hi Staar. You are a master craftsman.... It looks like it's a heavy metal version. Top paint job. And a very cool KIT to boot. Shocked

If I wasn't so incredibly broke at the moment, I would buy this kit in a minute. I have a strong part of my heart for the resin kits, and this one is not only beautifully crafted, it reminds me so much of those kits I loved from the early days like Rick Ross's. Great work as always Mark. I love what an artists eye can do with one of these.

I`d love to get the Resin Blaster Kit, but being as Canada is literally the azz end of the world... I doubt I could get 1 safely through Customs. Sure be nice if there was a Canadian Dealer here.

Shouldn't be a problem, usually Tome is making sure that the box is clearly labeled: movie prop, plastic pieces, etc...

Quite a few members here and on the RPF getting that prop in Canada without any issues.

Agreed with Joberg. Australia has even stricter gun laws than Canada has and mine came through without an issue. Granted it can also depend on the individual at Customs doing the review of the package but its unlikely IMO that you'll have an issue.

Best of luck,
M

Should not be an issue, my Tome came from HCG in Florida and was delivered to my door by UPS.

You will get hit by import fees however. Crying or Very sad

I just received my kit on Saturday. I made a video showing how the kit arrives if anyone is considering buying one. I apologize for the poor quality and lighting.

Has anybody produced a build guide for the resin blaster? Whilst the construction seems straightforward, I'm still wondering what the best tools are for removing the excess resin, glueing the parts and attaching the screws. Not sure I'm brave enough to attempt painting the blaster itself but any hints and tips would be appreciated.

Cheers!

Well, I got mine, and there's a simple assembly guide sheet;

I will say that you need indeed some tools because the casting isn't 100% perfect. I have some trouble assembling the resin grips, for example, because the screw holes aren't deep enough.
Other parts need to be glued with "superglue" otherwise they won't hold.

I'm rather clumsy so this would explain my difficulties.

Removing extra resin isn't easy (for me) because the parts scratch very easily.

I ended up selling mine as there was no way I could do the kit justice. Will be on the look out if Tomenosuke ever produce another "completed" version.

Being new to the Blade Runner prop world, is there a reason why Tomenosuke keep these kits so extremely limited? I get that collectibility is a major selling point, but there has to be a better balance between availability and collectibility. I got myself a resin kit as detailed in my thread here, but I'd much rather have had a Tomensuke kit. Ideally they'd release something even more broken down so that people could paint and customise it. Is this basically it for this kit now or will they ever release another batch?

"version 3" coming...

Looks like they'll do multiple "definitive ultimate limited" versions, as happened with the metal models Exclamation
