Devil May Explode BAM! BOOM! POW!
Posted by Brian Ashcraft at 9:00 PM on July 2, 2008
These fireworks were spotted by Kotakuite rrockshow182 in Missouri, and it looks like Dante is moonlighting as a firecracker model. Lucky him. rrockshow182 asks: "Think capcom will cut me in on the lawsuit?" Dunno! But even fireworks makers should know that if you play with fire, you get burned (and shit starts blowing up.) Hit the jump for a better look at the Dante-works.
Lethal weapon indeed.

Well, this is a better way to blow the franchise to bits than what they call Devil May Cry 4.

The Fourth of July, also known as Lawyer's Day.

@AngryEddy: Sounds fun! Did it end up well for the replica makers, I wonder?
@Antiterra: I believe that in the definition of "Irony" theres a bit that says "see United States of America".
I jest, I jest, do not invade my country... oh wait, were long time allies! GIMME AN F-16! Or two... anyway, happy the 4th of July, It reminds me I need to write something to my ladyfriends across the Atlantic about it... and rewatch ID4 on DVD, too! Love that movie!

Speaking from some experience buying fireworks in Missouri (lived there from 96-2002), the worst part is its probably not even a very impressive firework, the "10 shot" moniker in particular means its probably nothing more than an overly glorified roman candle :P

This kind of reminds me of the replica gun that was supposedly from Uncharted, only it wasn't a licensed replica at all. Yeah - that was a good story.

Celebrating the United States' independence with a sword-wielding, gun-toting, red leather-clad, white-haired emo dude from Japan!
Yes, spread the cross-cultural love!

At first, I delighted in the fact you point the side with the gun barrel on it at the spectators.
Then noticed that every side had a barrel. Damn. >_<
Perhaps we can get a 3 way lawsuit with Mel Gibson in there too, for the title?

"Face this side towards spectators, please"?
My God, that made my day! xD

Wow, guys, if you find that amusing, wait for "Diwali" to start here, there are so many cracker boxes with Mario, Peach, Sonic and many other game characters that are sold here since years!
Cool, so I will take pics and send them this diwali!

Probably not likely, but there is a store called Spirit of '76 Collectibles that I know of. [www.spirit-of-76.com] Lead member of my favorite band owns the store. It's located in Indiana though :/

...
So, just gonna go ahead and throw this out there... Are we entirely sure this is a firework, designed for entertainment, and not actually... You know, a weapon? I mean, it says "LETHAL WEAPON" right on the front, and has a label saying "Face this side towards spectators, please."
Spectators, or enemies?
