Our prop this week should be extremely familiar to anyone who’s read the blog before or even played Gears of War 2. This week it’s the Gears of War 2 Amazon.com Exclusive Lancer – Xbox 360

Specs

  • 36” Long, 10” tall, about 13 pounds, and constructed from ‘weapons grade’ plastic.
  • Trigger Activates Motorized ‘Chainsaw’ sound and vibration, with removable clip.
  • Created from actual 3D data used in the Gears of War 2 video game.
  • Powered by 3 ‘C’ Batteries.

The trademark weapon of the COG military, the Lancer is a fully automatic assault rifle that’s perfect for short to mid range combat. Its chainsaw bayonet is a powerful melee weapon that takes out most enemies in a single blow.

New uses for the Lancer continue to emerge, with recent reports of “chainsaw duels” which combine the chainsaw attack with traditional sword fighting. It can also be used to cut a path through overgrown areas.

This is my favourite weapon of all time. Im a huge fan of the chainsaw, so combining the two is pure genius …. Just sayin’
