well its a long time since ive made any comments on this website, but i thought it would be nice to let you know whats happening:
Yes, the guns (if you buy the bricks) are going to be very expensive, in the region of +$500
BUT we're also going to be selling instructions on their own, and these will cost closer to $15 (although no proces have been finalised yet).
the bricks are probably going to be bought off bricklink, and most will be used to keep the proce down. each gun is made to order, ie you give us the money, THEN we buy the bricks and send it to you, not you give us the money and then we send you bricks we've already bought. this will minimise losses if we dont get that many sales, and i doubt we will :) most of the money will probably be made from buying separate instructions (which will probably be PDF, we havent decided yet, although they may be view-on-screen-via-internet type to reduce losses due to people 'lending' them to each other - we do exist to make a profit :P)
YES, it is slightly mean, but i think that if youre lazy enough to want to completely copy someone elses ideas and not invent your own, then there should be a price. also its only a few dollars to you, so no problem :)
all clear? anything i havent mentioned has been ommitted because ive forgotten, or hasnt been decided yet ;)
