Looks like the gun on 1/4 is bigger than on the 1/1.

It looks quite bit larger, that thing would be massive in 1:1 which is why they probably chose the short barrel version for the life size one.

Unless this one on display (as I think are getting also), is not like a final engineered version or something. That the production version will be sturdier.
-edit- nevermind, you are getting at, it is the only one...i think..?
A proto piece doesn't necessarily have to be the exact thing the customer gets. It may very well be constructed entirely different or is similar or can be a 1:1 match. Promo stuff is always bringing it's A game because it's what sells the product. It's particularly a pain when a company deals with a factory, as I'm sure many of you can attest to over the years where the promo piece and final customer product ends up vastly different in quality because the factory goes all out on the proto to get the approval of the company they are working with, then proceed to step it down a notch or more in mass production stages.

I don't know the full story here with CC and this endo, but I can only assume it comes down to safety netting.

For anyone that fears knocking over their high end collectibles, I recommend a miracle product in my eyes called Museum Gel. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...=ATVPDKIKX0DER I can attest to this product's capabilities and the promise that it leaves no residue behind. As humans we can be clumsy at times. A little museum gel is a great safety net to those days when you accidentally bump into a shelf full of tip over happy collectibles. I cannot stress enough how as buyers of high end collectibles, this gel is the best investment you will ever make in this hobby. I have seen first hand as years go by with no concerns to note upon removal. The gel works like a charm. The key is to not go overboard with application. If you are under the impression that what you have in your hand can't be enough for it to work, it probably is enough.

It is a different weapon, it is longer and has the blue tinted heat stain, I prefer the one on the 1/4, but the 1:1 holding that smaller rifle looks amazing!! If I could afford it, I'd get one after seeing the pictures from the con.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.
