Immediately transporting your mind to vintage flying machines, shiny aluminium fortresses on a mission to foreign lands. And the crew adorning their crafts with scantily covered pin-ups as much as a tribute to the gals back home as a modern-day bowsprit sculpture intended to appease the gods of war.

In modified USAF livery, the Bang Bang Belle is unmistakeably based on our popular Manmelter 3600zx Sub-Atomic Disintegrator Pistol.

Its siblings, The Texas Rose and The Yakuza sold at Comic Con on preview night, it followed shortly after.

Hand painted at Weta Workshop by Jonny Brough, this gun is unique. There will never be another quite like it. A Dr Grordbort's Manmelter 3600zx Sub-Atomic Disintegrator Pistol, given fantastical livery by the hands that lay finishing touches to anything from Elven swords to Halo Warthogs. There is only one.
