Is It An M16? No, It’s A… Lamp
Lovers of the Al Pacino classic – and I mean lovers, casual fans need not apply – are going to wet their pants at the prospect of this obscene piece of kitsch tat. The *ahem* Scarface assault rifle Light weds a realistic replica M16, and reproduction bullets, with a… lampshade.
Haroon Malik over at Gizmodo picked up this piece of delightful garbage:
"The desk light consists of a silver painted base with three replica bullets attached to its surface. The lamp's pole is none other than a replica of everyone's little friend, the M16A1 assault rifle. Sweet. The lampshade atop depicts a scene of cinematic genius where Montana takes on the world; he ultimately loses, but man, did he make losing look good or what? At $44.98, having your favourite drug smuggling warlord adorning your décor surprisingly comes fairly cheap"
Ok, I'm no gun nut, but as a total movie geek there is a small part of me that is itching to buy this. The only thing missing is a bag of flour to recreate the coke-snorting final showdown from this awesome movie. But for under fifty bucks, what do you want?
