New Zealand company Weta Ltd. semi-recently released two weapon replicas from Neill Blomkamp’s Oscar-nominated film District 9. The two weapons are the Arc Generator and the Gas Projector. I don’t really remember the Gas Projector too well from the film, but I’m pretty sure the Arc Generator is the one that just made people into ‘human sauce’. Kind of like Dr. Manhattan did in Watchmen. The Gas Projector is the above picture, the Arc Generator is below the cut.
At the time of writing this the Gas Projector is still available for pre-order from Weta here for $499.00 USD. The Arc Generator however is no longer available for pre-order, but will apparently be available for sale at Weta booths during conventions. Still in very limited numbers though.
This is a scene from the movie featuring the weapons in action. It’s in German. I really only recommend watching this if you just want to spend two minutes refreshing your memory on the weapons. Don’t watch this if you haven’t already seen District 9. The Gas Projector is the 3rd gun he uses and the Arc Generator is the last.
