Buy a Lancer and get Gears of War 2 photo

Amazon is offering up a pretty nice exclusive for people who really like Gears of War. For $139.99 you can be the proud owner of a Lancer replica, complete with gore-ridden blade. As a special bonus, when you buy the Lancer you can also get Gears of War 2 free. For those that would like the special edition bundle, it’s only ten dollars more.

The Lancer replica has a few funny features. The trigger will activate a chainsaw engine sound as well as a vibration. The gun also has a removable clip. No word if the gun automatically curses for you when you reload. Also, the gun uses three “C” batteries that are not included in the packaging. I hate it when they make me go to the store and see the sun.

The Lancer replica ships on November 7, so there’s still plenty of time to toss the idea to your loved one and convince him or her that this is a good choice. I assume that I will be having an ongoing conversation over the next few months in my vain attempt to prove that a buzzing gun is worth over one hundred bucks. How many of you think you’ll get this?

Kryptinite is going to shit on himself if he sees this. The he'll buy it being the special edition whore he is.

I gotta admit, I'm tempted to purchase this.

This was on display at Comic Con. It is really very detailed, and if you're into plastic replicas, then sure, it's worthy of buying.

I would surely buy it if it had an actual functioning chainsaw. Even though it would seem like second nature to chop the nearest person up into tiny pieces.

I pre-ordered this WITH the LE version of the game... then thought about it for a minute or two and canceled the Lancer, kept the LE pre-order.

I just don't need the gun. Only the game.

God dammit, that looks fucking awesome, but Gears 2 wasn't even in my budget for the fall. Hell, I already don't like that you get exclusive DLC for buying LittleBigPlanet and Fable 2 in a timely fashion. But man...now I want this...but I also note that if anyone in my dorm saw this, I would probably be arrested.

I've already started to allocate money to a special "i'm dumb and buying this bundle" fund.

Plus the extra 10 for the Limited Edition.


EXPENDABLE INCOME FTW!

Pretty sweet, but I couldn't justify this purchase. That's like, two new games.

Electric utility stocks and their dividend feature is great for retirement plans and a conservative way to play the recovery of the economy in a regular investment account.
