If you’re a Mass Effect fan, you’ve got a long wait before the inevitable next installment in the series, most likely on the next-generation consoles, and nobody’s even sure when those will be introduced. Sure, there are plenty of things to help feed your fanboyism, from the comics, to the surprisingly good novels, to an upcoming direct-to-DVD anime-style film, Mass Effect: Paragon Lost. But if you’ve got the cash and want to make a more sizeable investment in the world of Mass Effect, here’s an incredibly badass replica of the M-3 Predator pistol from the games.

I love the weapon designs of Mass Effect, and the Predator is a very snazzy example of the games’ mix of pragmatic realism and a bit of science fiction flair. And while you may not have the technology to go explore the Terminus Systems just yet, I’m pretty sure this puppy would really help sell that Mass Effect cosplay you’ve been planning.

If you’re interested in your very own bit of Predator pistol, you’d best act fast. The models with the LED lights are limited runs, so once they’re gone you’ll only be able to get a damned impressive model that sadly does not light up.

You can click here to order one of the Predators for $399.99. We’ve got the full specs and more pictures below.

Shep loves a good sidearm, especially when she’s taking out a bunch of geth husks or Cerberus troops. In fact, we’d say she appreciates a good weapon almost as much as Garrus, although she calibrates hers a lot less often. The Predator is a lightweight, rapid fire pistol that rounds out your party when Liara’s firing off biotics and Garrus is sniping. There’s Shep with her trusty M-3 Pred.
