Prop Company Debuts Gorgeous Master Sword Replica

[MrSnugglesworth]

Nice! Now I just need a Sword of Omens that actually grows from dagger to sword when I say, Thunder, Thunder, Thundercats, ho!

I wish I had that.

 

[Amnestic]

is Frostmourne still available?

Yes it is. [http://www.epicweapons.com/products/frostmourne/]

I take back what I said about it being cheaper as well, I was mistaken. Frostmourne is currently going for $430, however considering it's full stainless steel, comes with a display mount, has an embedded authentication microchip and comes with A FREAKING POSTER OMFG! some might say it's still a better deal than the projected $400-$600 for the Mastersword.

/As soon as I find $430 lying around, I'm going to be picking up one of these babies.

Fiberglass? Foam? Aluminium? 3 lb?

Call me when it's a real sword.

My thoughts exactly. If they were real I'll be dropping some top dollar in the future.

Can you imagine getting a real Master sword as a birthday present? That would be a great say.

 

[Shadowfaze]

very nice sword. want that.

 

[Canadamus Prime]

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn! That's one nice piece of work. Sure beats the hell out of the replica I have.

 

[Pendragon9]

Have these people work with the new Zelda. Make this an attachment for the new game!

I will buy three Wiis. I guarantee it.

 

[matrix3509]

Yeah, call me when they make an actual steel replica. Otherwise, *yawn*.

So they are charging about $500 for a nerf sword. Nice, next thing they will want $750 for a Boomerang plushie. If I am going to invest in replicas, then they are going to replicate the item, as in STEEL.

The length of the blade seems a bit short compared to the size of the hilt but other then that, cool.

Think about what you just said.

 

[SharPhoe]

Dang it, people need to stop making awesome props/memorabilia that I want but can't afford. It's saddening me... T_T

 

[silasbufu]

The hilt & steath colours are a bit lame. The black one from the link is awesome.

Geekologie reports that these swords typically sell for $400 - $600, though no price has been established for this particular weapon.

Frostmourne was cheaper. Just sayin'. That is awesome though. I wonder how many cosplayers are going to be snatching these up?

Typically at conventions they don't allow replica weapons with a bladed edge to be drawn. To my knowledge, they lock the weapon into the sheathe with a weird gadget or get you to sign a waiver that you won't draw it.

Still, awesome blade is awesome.

They do that?

But anyway. I want that blade.......

 

[scotth266]

They do that?

It's to prevent the possibility of injuries. I believe that the term is peacebonding.

And yet another absurdly expensive but not very practically useful geek trophy is revealed. Still, it looks pretty well made and well-replicated.

 

[VanityGirl]

*saves up money*
I want that sword.

Edit: Found a real one

 

[Kevlar Eater]

Fiberglass? Do not want, but it does look very nice. Practicality > looks any day, in y opinion.

 

[kawligia]

Nice. If I had that much to toss around, I would buy it.

 

[Cheesus333]

Frostmourne was made of stainless steel too and about...twice as big. Far superior intricate handle and even comes with a handy wall mount.

Yes, but is that the Master Sword?

Still not as good as the Aperture Science Hand-Held Portal Device that was shown this morning, but still...it's cool.

Ah, perhaps so, but is that the Master Sword?

Fiberglass? Foam? Aluminium? 3 lb?

Call me when it's a real sword.

It's not a real sword. IT'S THE MASTER SWORD.

Guys! The Master Sword! Clue right there in the name! xD

 

[Chaotic Neutral]

...Four to six hundred dollars for a sword made out of fiberglass that manages to be heavier (and probably less balanced) than an actual sword of the same length would be. Uh, no. I could get a hand-forged real sword made of carbon steel, which could actually fend off intruders if needed, for three hundred.

It's a very pretty replica, and if they were selling it for say, fifty bucks, I'd think about it. But $400 is way too much for a dedicated wall-hanger, and $600 is right out. Sadly, I can already see the cosplayers lining up to buy this ripoff, but hey, it's their money, right?
