    Any serious or plans to mass producing a MP ultra magnus armor?

    Reason why I ask is because I am debating about keeping or selling off my MP Ultra Magnus.

    Just don't feel like keeping it when it has no true magnus feel to it...

    Y'know I'm pretty sure I saw some pics a while back... Hmmmm. Might be worth hanging onto it a while longer.

    Well, there was the prototype for dalianjj's MP Ultra Magnus armor. It won't necessarily be "mass produced", but there will be enough of them out there if you want one immediately following its release.

    I'm hoping this is cheap, cuz the one from marksproject is $750, which while nice is out of my budget.

    He made an MP OP trailer a couple of years ago that was sold on a few websites as well as being fairly easy to acquire on eBay. I bought mine on eBay and, at the time, the seller was listing several per week. I would imagine in this time of increased interest in "fan" projects, that if/when the Magnus armor is made, it will be easy to get if you want one.

    Anyhow, there was definitely some preliminary information on pricing in that thread I linked to, as well as some talk of pre-orders.

    EDIT: Ordering information can be seen here on tf08.net. It hasn't been updated in a bit, but looks like it should be soon.
