The Aug. 24 release of Mafia II is just a couple of weeks away. So to remind us, publisher 2K sent over one of the most simultaneously awesome and ridiculous pieces of swag we’ve ever received: a limited-edition lamp in the shape of an M1911 automatic pistol, one of the many guns that feature prominently in the game.
As you can see in the following pictures, the gun is impressively detailed and looks awfully close to the real thing. It’s a little smaller and a lot lighter, though, and the wide, heavy base and lampshade make it poorly suited to the task of frightening an intruder or keeping it concealed in your jacket as you stalk the mean streets of 1940s Empire Bay. Sadly, the lamps are limited to 200 pieces and won’t be available for sale or as pre-order bonuses, butwe can at least give you a closer look:
Above: We’re guessing the lampshade isn’t limited edition, if that Target REstyle sticker is anything to go by
Above: It’s naked! Also if you squint really hard, the bulb socket almost looks like a silencer
Above: At first I thought this meant we had the 19th numbered lamp, but then I realized it was upside-down. Still, being in the double digits at all counts for something, right?
Above: Oh, like this wouldn't be the first thing you'd do
