the toy "Assault Rifle"



Sorry if everybody already knows about this, but I felt that I had to share it.
 
Yeah, it's been posted a few times before along with some pretty neat mods to make it look closer to the real deal. Biggest issue is the small size but it's perfect for kids.



FYI- It first appeared on Toys R' Us shelves last summer I think.
 
Just picked one up today! I have to deal with a lame temporary "safety color" paint job for a little bit though so that I can use it as a prop at a convention.
 
I was gunna say, bungie doesnt sue.. microsoft does. but this is all old news.
 
with a little paint job... it can look like this:



( I will change to barrel for the other 2 I bought to be more game accurate... but for a 3 hour pain job... not bad)

If you chop off the stock, handle, and everything above that, rebuild it to be longer and game-accurate, and redo the foregrip, this thing is pretty close to an MA5...if i weren't doing a romeo build, i'd buy one and do this.
 
you used to be able to buy it at toys r us online and a couple of month ago they were "buy 2 get one free" that basicaly why I have 3 of them.

That's hilarious.



I posted with that title just to see what kind of response I would get, and I think that some people on here think that Bungie is actually suing someone.



Read the post description, guys. haha



Thanks for replying though, it's funny how many dudes on the forum have one.
 
Wow, yeah im pretty certain there are others out there that look just like Spartan Lasers and such.

Its ridiculous that they don't get into a law suit lol.

Oh well, i guess they are not selling them as "Assault RIfles"

Whatever hah
