I wouldn't be surprised if the Deckard gun goes for alot more. It's the coolest looking gun in sci-fi, imo.

Hero blaster?

i believe "hero" (prop) refers to detailed props used for close-ups, rather than simple & durable props that hold up to wear-and-tear

I'd give my left one for it!

I can remember when I first saw the movie I thought the weapon was a "dual" barrel weapon. I've seen replicas since... Gawdamn replicants!
