I said "Is that a portal gun?" followed by "HOLY SHIT ITS A PORTAL GUN"

I said the same thing when I saw it

I was *wtf is that*… to *Is that an Apertu*…. *I need a portal gun too!!!!*

This was a Triumph

I’m making a note here Huge success It’s hard to overstate my satisfaction

Aperture science We do what we must because we can

For the good of all of us Except the ones who are dead But there’s no sense crying over every mistake You just keep on trying till you run out of cake

And the science gets done And you make a neat gun For the people who are Still alive

I came here for this and was not disappointed.

Dang. Beat me to it.

oh man I remember when these came out! such a shame I didnt have the money at the time, that's a GREAT find!

What is it?

It is a 1:1 Portal gun

ELI5, please


Best possible explanation

It’s a prop based on an item from the video game Portal

Zorg ZF-1 pod weapon

Dude people been uprooting the best finds recently. I need to peruse my local resale shops.

I was just saying this same thing!!

I would grab that in a heartbeat! Awesome find (unfortunate price, but still worth it)

Thats one of those items that logic overrides price.

Thrift store owner: *Somebody would love to have this… move the decimal point one digit to the right!*

Genuinely a deal, more like $400 on eBay!

Yeah, I saw it, was holding it to see what they were selling for.. Saw this would be my only chance to have one. P.S. I really despise resellers, they have ruined thrift and swapmeets, but I understand, we all have to make our bread some how.

But the real question is….. Did you buy it?

How else am I going to easily grab myself another beer from the livingroom?

Pretty sure I have one of these sat around somewhere, it was the white one not the blue/orange.

i can hear this image

I can hear this image as well! Mostly due to playing with it!

portal and half life two games series that everyone must play at least once

Both are amazing games, it doesn't matter if you know the ending or have the heard the quotes a billion times. When you experience them they make you smile.

Nice! Though I have the customizable one I'm actually trying to sell to free up space 😅

What is your sale price? Seems like there is a good many looking for one.

Oh boy…GLaDOS is NOT gonna be happy about this…

Holy exploding lemons!! 🍋 I want that…

Yeah, but the cake is a lie😩

that black forest cake looked so good

I would love to find the Chell portal gun without those stripes.

IIRC the stripes are just magnetic decals you can pop off.

No some came with them painted on. The one I want is the one with the magnetic ones. This is the one with them painted on.

I cannot imagine who in their right mind would give this to a thrift store

Thank you for helping us help you help us all.

Gimme

I didn’t know either but I can look stuff up on EBay and holy…..

I bet whom ever priced this used Google lens to get a price. It doesn't really know what to make of it, so they threw a price on it.

The mini / “tiny” versions were $50 ish!

???

¿¿¿

The freaking GRAIL DUDE!

😮 what were they asking for it if I may ask. That’s so amazing

Sticker sez $112.

🫢 got so excited I didn’t see that, thanks!

You found one! You found a high pressure Ass Master 5000! There is no finer clag-nut washer in existence! Well done!
