This seemed like news people would want to know about so I made it its own thread. 
New "World Convention" version of the Tomenosuke PRO in the works!

Which I am going to buy immediately.
But what the usual channels would be? Unaware.
Bought my previous PRO on ebay. |

Good call - a little over a week ago Hollywood Japan already had over 100 preorders when I asked about allotments.
They're the distributor in the US, I don't know about Italy. |

Great,
thanks Jakob. No worries for Italy - there ain't shiat here anyways - I have a home in the US. It's going there.
Thanks!

Yeah it looks like they started taking preorders on the first 100 units on August 23 and sold out immediately.
"Some more will be available in late September" but I think if anyone will be looking for one they would do well to start contacting Mune and/or Hollywood Collectors Gallery ASAP to find out how to secure one.

A question for you blaster pros.......if you replace the weaver screw with a slotted screw, isn't this a pretty close representation of a screen accurate gun?

IHO the only weathering it should have is a little ware, as in holster and service ware from being used.
A rusty and dirty gun will not operate correctly when you need it the most.
I do not believe Deckard would let the only thing between him and a skin-job and his death to get dirty and perhaps malfunction.

I suppose it would be uncalled for to say that I'm beginning to dislike you mate??
What a wonderful collection and richly deserved!
Highest regards
