WGP lives. New bodies, frames coming

[Blackmagic71]

I don’t want to complain but $350000 is kind of steep… and I also suspect that marker won’t hold air… 😑

Inflation, maaaaan

I'm kind of confused why they decided to come back but are just re releasing the same bodies. Yes I know there are tweaks but I was kind of hoping to see what would be next

Because they will sell quickly due to their popularity and the price gouging that goes on due to their popularity. The changes update and make the new bodies super to the originals. Better feeneck options, multiple valve and dump chamber options, body lines are cleand up. I think it’s great that they bring these back especially as a pump player. Ever see what those 5 or so Karni body’s sell for that were never machined for the eye ribbon? WGP is basically building a superior body to that.

[RuleOfSines]

Wouldn't have needed to buy the WGP name probably to do that.

They released a video talking about the LTI system and how they work and in that video they said they were starting with these bodies basically for nostalgia hype, and people still want them. So it would be easy first run for them to sell. But they also said they have plans to create different bodies and new designs, all using the LTI system.

[SETHZILLA!]

Gene also said there was a original design that was never released before from WGP. He said they will be showing it once this first batch gets going.
Can't wait!

After 20+ years, i still get sticker shock from pb stuff. And I remember the FBM stuff.

Yeah I’m surprised they have it priced so high. You are getting a frame and I hope the lower internals and the ICD w/ back block on the Karni.

Hopefully it’s a nice 45 I can sell I don’t want a 45 for my build.

I think the others may be hard sells since you’re looking at 1500+ builds after Ano.

I’m really curious if it will come with the internal detent mod or no detent option. If Im spending that much it’s got to have all the options I want.

I got my alarm set to snag one but if not I will have a CCM style Sanchez pump kit for sale for however dose get one.

Kicking myself for not buying that Sanchez on eBay now.

[Cdn_Cuda]

Ouch, over $800 CAD and need anno on top. Not surprised necessarily, but takes me out of the market. I’m sure the flippers will be out in full force

[Heavy_D]

yeah, im out too with the prices atm....

[BubbleHead87]

I just want the karni body.

[jdircksen]

These kits are going to create demand for pneumatics, grip frames, and people to anodize the parts. It would take me quite a while to get all of that in order.

[iamthelazerviking]

Maybe in a couple years we will see 100% complete out of the box WGP markers again. It's cool they are offering this, but gonna be very expensive to build

[Ecapnation]

Nope. Not with those prices for repops. I'll sit this out considering I have the originals.

[Chuck E Ducky]

Yup they can eat it.

750+ if you get the ICS and thats empty to. By the time you fill it put a pump kit reg and Ano nah I’m good.

Figured the ICS was the extra $100 tacked on the the Karni. Nope. Frame don’t even come with internals for that. It’s just an empty raw frame.

Anyone needs a Sanchez 90* pump kit they can have it for what I payed. I’m sure people will be scalping them. It’s the best design for the Karni and it takes a CCM handle.

I was excited about these. Sucks.

[Melrosejedi]

I’ll take that pump rod setup bud.

[Chuck E Ducky]

It’s yours Dave.

[Blackmagic71]

I ordered a Black Magic kit. It’ll be a fun project to put together.

[BubbleHead87]

Two hour later and all 4 kits still in stock. Wish they just sold it in pieces. Not a whole kit. Pretty much have all thr parts to build out a pump. All I needed was that karni body 😭

[Chuck E Ducky]

They are making “75 of them” on the first run.

[Magmoormaster]

Dang and I thought I overpaid when I bought the Chris Shanks Spine body for $750. That was one of 7.

[Cdn_Cuda]

Yeah, these bodies cost more than any single marker I have in my collection.
