You can def get gold plate (You could add that to any of these for around $10) but the raw cost of just 14k gold itself for the Heavy Stub Rifle is several hundred dollars. It may not be obvious that the piece is nearly two inches long. And very heavy for a necklace. I've sold a few of these, though the branch collection is by far the most popular. This is something I do on the side mainly for fun, though, and I don't do any promotion or marketing at all. Rather spend my time making work These days I'm working on a new collection, tentatively called Control. Some test shots are up on Flickr if you're interested.

Ah, I did not know that. It has been a really long time since I saw the movie. You have an awsome knowledge of the Black Hole weaponry usage. I wonder if Mego had that gun from another line and simply reused it? Or perhaps the designer was stumped by how to get the the figure's hand to grip the double barrelled/movie accurate type (The gun slides in from the top, I believe).

Indeed. Though I don't think of them as mangled

Hey guys, Looks like this thread has been dead for a while, but thought I'd chime in anyway with my two cents. Yeah, I know $90 sounds like a lot for a silver gun, but it's a really heavy, shiny chunk of solid sterling silver. And it costs more than you would think to get a piece like that it all nicely polished up. And the Black Hole gun is the type carried by the sentries, not the two barrelled style the good guys use. See here for a shot of it in context. These are only $30 for the necklace or $40 for the earrings, btw. They are a lot smaller and lighter than the big gun. The mangled part trees are actually called "sprues," btw. And tell you what: Anyone from here who can actually identify where any weapon in the Mech collection came from get 50% off. Later, N.
