Description This thing has been consuming my life since October but I'm finally DONE! It not only has spring-loaded aluminum grapple blades, but also really fires the grapple!

For a demo video and more information if you'd like to buy one of these for your own collection, check out: [link]

Based on Rorschach's Grappling Gun from Watchmen.

EDIT:
Managed to juggle around costs and bring the price-tag down for you all! My first three pre-orders are now $500, and after that, units will be $600. See the website for more information!

Remember, these are hand-made fan-made toys of top quality. Take-up Reel is still TBD.
__
That first edit:
Holy sugar cubes, a Daily Deviation! Thanks so much guys!
For those interested to buy but anxious about the price, please note I am currently doing my best to reduce costs where ever possible and bring that price tag down for all of you! I have also been debating the addition of a take-up reel and have made some adjustments that will boost the grapple firing-range to twice what it was already! More news soon!

If I do decide to add a line, guys, please don't really try to climb it. It will be for lulz and photo-ops only, these are fairly sturdy toys but they are still just hand-made toys!

If you pre-order now they'll be $500, once I begin production they'll be $600.

It took a lot of juggling with Excel. XD

ANYWAY, this thing is too pimp FOR WORDS, my dear! Ha, and I love the video. After you shoot and then stand there for a second it's like Rorschach is like, "Hm. Forgot rope."

I hope you make some MONEY~$$

Also, Target totally has purple leather gloves.

I SAWWWWW But alas I am broke too. Hence the free time to dedicate to a crazy project like this. XDToo broke to make these in advance without pre-orders so here's hoping more come! (There's one already, hopefully more will follow. )

Bilious In reply to MuddyBloodyBlueSky [2010-03-04 02:34:24 +0000 UTC]

BWAHAHA INDEED. I made a disclaimer on the website to not shoot it at people but that's just to get myself out of harm's way. If they wanna shoot their own buddies in the ass I aint gonna' be there to stop 'em. >o>

Srsly though I'm so proud of this thing. I'm thinking I'm going to be Rorschach a second time for Halloween so I can show it off properly now that it's really finished. I also want to make some duplicate masks so every fifteen minutes or so I can change it and people will be like wait....

MuddyBloodyBlueSky In reply to Bilious [2010-03-04 03:05:20 +0000 UTC]

it'd be great to go from that mask to an insanely evil smile looking blot. XD SCARY!

I'd go to a con with it and shoot everyone in the ass. Cause I'm Every Villain is Lemons.

Bilious In reply to MuddyBloodyBlueSky [2010-03-04 08:32:25 +0000 UTC]

Fufufufu people already thought this mask was "creepy" XD I'm definitely committed to upgrading the costume for this Halloween. And then hit up Hollywood and Highland.

LOL! The cartoon magic of Rorschach! Love it!

Same here. I have to strap down my breasts to play the part, so I'll have to figure a way to add the grapple gun when I get it.

Lol luckily I'm skinny so with the coat belt loose it all kind of evens out and no one noticed. X)

Hurm. This makes me consider figuring out a holster for it people can buy extra. XD I was already debating whether I should offer stands.

CyrilTheWizard In reply to Bilious [2010-03-06 13:00:05 +0000 UTC]

You should make the holster and the stand. Maybe some sort of wall mount.
