I don't know if this would interested anyone here, but Buck Rogers was basically the inspriation for the everything sci-fi that we know and love.
Go hero is making an amazing figure and repro of the the classic gun.

I'm really excited for these, they were probably the coolest things i saw at the sdcc this year. Really High end, like Sideshow's stuff.

That's actually pretty damn sweet. $175 though...

The original comics & design styles are soo much better than that "Buck Roger's in the 25th century Crap."

It would be pretty damn sweet for Sci-Fi or some other channel to remake a Buck Roger's television series and stay true artistically to the original comics, with ray guns and rocket packs with rings around the tips and stuff like that. I think its hard to have a good fantasy sci-fi movie/show these days because this "is" the future that our ancestors dreamed off, only without jetpacks. By looking at the evolution of technology over the last 100 years or so we can guess what future technology will be, but its not as cool as the stuff people dreamed up before advanced technology was everywhere.

yeah, its $$, but its super high end, though.

and so truthful to the original designs.

it was by far the coolest thing i saw at the con.

the figure also has a sound player in it comes with the old radio shows downloaded into it.

pretty sweet.
