Sideshow Collectables is offering prop replicas of the COG Snub Pistol from Gears of War 3 and the M8 Avenger Assault Rifle from Mass Effect 3, both manufactured by TriForce. The only thing more staggering than the quality and detail, however, is the prices: $399.99 and $649.99, respectively. I could go into my usual tirade about how one could buy a real firearm for the money instead, but these were clearly intended for a different market. It’s also worth mentioning that both replicas are limited to a 500-piece run, so if you’re interested you better pre-order soon.

Cool, but not cool enough to justify the price tag.
I don’t get why with things like this that companies insist on going super high end in terms of materials/build quality and produce in very limited numbers and thus be able to justify charging outrageous prices for them. I wish that more companies would make things just a bit better than a toy and either in much larger numbers or open ended runs so that even factoring in licensing fees they can charge a lot less for these thing and make their money by selling more.
