| Sinden Lightgun Kickstarter date revealed! |

The kickstarter thing is a bit worrying, but he does seem very committed and it looks to me like he has learnt from his previous failed one. I'd definitely rather just buy it but if this is the only way to get a working lightgun then I think its worth a little risk. Its interesting that PDP are releasing the Mars lightgun soon (ish) as well. Maybe the time is right for a revival! |

2019 year of the lightgun! I get the hatred towards crowd funding. Lots of people have been stung by it even by companies they thought they could trust.... But on the flip side there is honest companies on there to. I have backed a few different campaigns so far and all of them have come through for me so far. Fingers crossed I stay lucky with it. |

Great news! I'm not a huge fan of Kickstarter but it has it's benefits. So far I have not been burned on anything I've KS backed. But I also won't pledge more than I am prepared to lose. I'm prepared to take a fair chance for this, it's been something I've been waiting for for a long time. |

Not to be a drag on this, because I'm excited to see what can be brought to the market, but didn't he ask for over $300,000 on his last kick starter? how is that not looking to make max profit? |

Hell hes spent years developing this thing on his own without any sort of financial reward so why shouldnt he hope to make a few quid? I dunno but thats my take on it. |
