This Lancer replica is as elaborate as it is expensive

You’d have to be either a huge Gears of War fan or have an insane amount of disposable income to be able to afford TriForce’s 1:1 scale Lancer Assault Rifle. The highly impressive replica costs $949.99, and will be available in February of next year.

These Lancers are 40″ in length, weigh 15 pounds, have working LED lights, and only 500 of them are being created. TriForce is taking pre-orders now, if you actually are into this sort of thing. Not that these replicas aren’t incredibly cool, but seriously.

Personally, the Amazon.com Lancer meets my chainsaw gun needs; if I had an extra $1k sitting around, I’d probably get a huge Alien bust or something equally nerdy. On second thought, I shouldn’t be allowed to judge how others spend their money.
