Is finally arriving!

I ordered one a while ago, and I've been patiently waiting ever since they announced the delay. Now it's so close I can even taste it. Not that I'm gonna eat it, of course. Well, maybe lick it.

I just saw this too, gotta say Im extremely dissappointed after a year of waiting, to see the changes, and I know the hero version is completely out of the question pricewise to me, I had to ask for a refund.

How much do you think the Hero version will go for?

Got to agree that the changes made to the pistol disappoint me a bit just looking at the pics.

Particularly as it doesn't appear to include the (rather distinctive) magazine.
However, I can understand their decision. They're trying to get the best of both worlds, and there's only so much they can do.

Rumor has it, around $800 and no even ballpark figure of when it will go into production.
I was most looking forward to the real walnut handle and the fact it was limited edition,one of only 1000 they were going to make, even had a spot on my wall all picked out. I notice this new stunt version is an open edition.

$800?!? For that kind of money it better be a working firearm and shoot real bullets!

I don't think it fires real bullets, but I believe the plan is that it will "work" to some degree.

I'm interested in buying the cheaper version of Mal's Gun but does anybody know if QMX ship worldwide since I live in England, futureplanet.co.uk do sell most of QMX's props,etc but they aren't selling Mal's gun anymore and most likely won't sell the cheaper version.

Rumor being the operative word, Dear.
I've only seen this figure "quoted" once prior to Teh Awesome ArtCat, and it was not from QmX.
Getting the all-metal one Aikin got may be the best bet... and with my access to machine shop... moo hoo haa haa...
As for shipping overseas, the easiest way to find out is to visit their webpage and ask them.
