Summary
A talentedFalloutfan has shown off their incredibly realistic replica of a mini-nuke from the games. Used alongside the Fat Man, the mini-nuke is easily one of the most recognizable items from theFalloutfranchise.
TheFalloutseries is approaching three decades old now, with the original game being released back in 1997. Over the years, fans have enjoyed finding new and interesting ways to pay tribute to the franchise, resulting in a massive number of fan creations. While some players do this by modding the game themselves, others find unique ways to bringFalloutinto their real lives. Recently, one cleverFalloutfan transformed a Nerf gun into a laser pistol replica, showing the kinds of things players can create at times.

The amazing mini-nuke recreation was created by Redditor aardvarkian_overlord, who posted it to theFalloutcommunity online. The piece’s paint and weathering are incredible, and it certainly looks like it could have been pulled directly from any of the games that it appeared in. It’s an amazing tribute to one of thebest explosive weapons inFallout, and it just needs a Fat Man to fire it from. When asked if it functions, the creator jokingly replied, “As a blunt object.” According to the creator, the mini-nuke was entirely 3D printed, and the weathering paint application was their first-ever attempt at this process, which shows an immense amount of talent.

As a series,Falloutis in a pretty solid place right now. The upcoming TV show has shown plenty of promise, meaning it could be a successful move into a new medium for the franchise.Fallout 76is in a much better place nowadays than it was at launch, and while Bethesda may be in full development ofThe Elder Scrolls 6now, hints have started to appear that the developer is thinking aboutFallout 5. It was even recently revealed thatsome ideas had to be cut from theFalloutTV series, as they were planned for use later inFallout 5. With it being almost a decade sinceFallout 4now, hopefully, Bethesda won’t keep the community waiting for too long.
