The Tomenosuke blaster on the HCG website will still look very cool, but not the special Blued version shown in the interim pre-order picture. Haven't seen a pic of the final production model yet...only preliminary pics but there are pics of the colourful cardboard box.
The Blaster will probably look more like the previous 2012 WOR-CON version by Tomenosuke...but will have all the new upgrades for 2014 and the grips will be more of an orange-amber color. Can check with Hollywood-Japan website for a more likely idea of the blaster in their preliminary photo of it (looks similar to the WOR-CON version...still cool).
50 completed models of the Blaster have sold out on preorders on the HCG website. There are going to be a total of 200 of these pre-assembled blasters available by August 2014. Order one elsewhere, before all of the 200 are gone. Also there are going to be 100 unassembled models KIT versions of this blaster for those who like kits and who want to save about $350 or so. Total 200 built plus 100 kits = 300 units worldwide.
