Sweet thing ! This one has actually a better quality / price ratio than their overpriced pulse rifle.

Does it have the steadicam harness? If not, what's the point?

QuoteBack at SDCC 2016, we got our first look at an Aliens M56 Smartgun Prop Replica at the Hollywood Collectibles Booth. Details were not available at the time. Today, HCG has finally shared an update. The life size prop replica Smartgun is now available for pre-order.

They will be offering a standard as well as a HCG Exclusive version. Each version is priced at $1199.95. Here are the details:

Font on the plate is wrong. It's Alien League, not original movie font

Nice!

1200$ huh?

You know what, I much rather have a new AVP game or a sequel to Isolation then this.

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the effort thats being put in to make us happy, we've got 2 films coming up and all, but what about videogames? Where are they?

Don't spit that filth at me!  :P I go airsofting. Unfortunately this isn't a functioning replica like that. Though someone did put together a working paintball replica.

I'm sure there's a few airsoft wiz's out there who could turn this into a working gun. That is if one hasn't already been made using the airsoft MG34/42 kits

I'm pretty sure there's some custom stuff out there.

I've seen a few crazy things on youtube. Some cool period weapons show up in Scoutthedoggie's videos. There was a video he did a few years ago where someone was playing in the full USCM armor + a pulse rifle, that's something I'd honestly love to do if I could afford it  :laugh:

I love Scout's videos. He gets a nice variety of stuff in there.

Here's a poor quality airsoft smartgun from a few years ago:

It shoots, which is more than I can say for my gun which has been in my closet for the past 2 years.

I think if you were going to make an airsoft version (which I'd love to see) it'd be best to give it a large magazine, high rate of fire, and slightly higher than normal FPS.
