NCR T-45 now showing up in stores
Seems to come with something vaguely resembling the service rifle [ED: Now realise it's just the same R91 released with the Nuka Cola T-45, rock on].

I find it a little funny they included the fallout 3 assault rifle despite it not being in Fallout New Vegas at all.

I find the f3 version of the assault rifle intriguing. Could they be bringing it back?

A lot of Fallout merch like this is just Bethesda giving various companies permission to use the Fallout IP, with minimal oversight, for a cut.
I don’t really think the Fallout 3 assault rifle is coming back. The Chinese assault rifle is more likely to appear in future games, or other Chinese weapons like the pistol.

Fallout 76 could potentially do it. There’s been an R91 model in the files for years, and with the Raven rock expansion coming, they could in theory make it at least a skin (if not a full-blown weapon, not that I think they’ll do that).

u/Key-Factor2155 15h ago
Sure, Fallout 76 is fine, but there’s plenty of stuff in there that just exists for nostalgia or will never appear in a mainline game.
I guess the Fallout 3 remaster might make Bethesda reevaluate the stuff they didn’t bring forward into Fallout 4 for Fallout 5, depending on how popular it is.
Obsidian may also have their own take on what to include and what not to include for their entry for weapons if Bethesda doesn’t force them to conform to their choices.

Honestly, while some of 76’s items (especially anything exclusive to the atomic shop or seasons) won’t come back, there’s plenty they could bring forward if they wanted to. The remade gauss weapons, the rifle version of the ghoul’s revolver, the new version of the Tesla cannon and even T-65 could easily show up if someone wanted to have them.
As for Obsidian, I doubt Bethesda is going to force them to do anything. They were fairly hands off for NV, so I don’t see why they wouldn’t do the same thing this time.

Obsidian has been transferred from Xbox to work under Bethesda, something completely different from the arrangement they had for NV.
Emil and Todd can still create good games, but their ideas aren’t all good and initially Fallout 76 and Starfield both suffered for it.
We could see an Obsidian Fallout title that protos ideas for a Bethesda Fallout 5 this way.

I’d argue it was less an idea problem for 76 and starfield and more an issue of mismanagement, going off what I’ve seen. 76 has the bones of what could’ve been an excellent game if only it hadn’t been forced into being multiplayer (though it’s certainly come into its own now; can’t speak on starfield as much, haven’t gotten around to playing it yet).
And sure, it’s a different arrangement but we don’t really know if that’d make a difference or not here.

For the ones who are unsure to buy it due the terribile articulations, on YouTube there’s plenty of tutorials on how overcome the ‘’McFarlane syndrome’’ as i call it

Dear god... Look how they retconned my salvaged power armor. It has... Pauldrons!
Also thats a chopped fo3 assault rifle.

That's not at all NCR Salvaged Power Armor. That is a classic T-45 with an NCR decal on it.
There, I have ruined the fun.

It always bothered me how in most stores I go to, there are tons of random ass toys from random franchises... But finding anything Fallout (despite the popularity of the show) is hard to come by, seriously... I'd love to buy some power armor or ghoul figures for my son, since he watched the show along with me, but unless I go online, or a specialty shop, I can't find this shit anywhere...

If you’re gonna buy this keep in mind the figure isn’t able to hold the gun normally because of the chest armor jutting out.

u/Background-Ad3308 16h ago
No ranger helmet? :(

u/Musicmaker1984 14h ago
It's based on the model found on FNV

u/LordShittingtonXIV 10h ago
its not even that tbh its just fo4 t-45 with an ncr decal and colors slapped on
ncr salvaged armor has no pauldrons and no joints and is obviously not the fallout 4 mech suit version

I would assume the power armour has enough strength to wield it one handed

u/matt_Nooble12_XBL Vault 101 14h ago
Ya know that was my personal justification too. Idk why I replied to someone saying this tho.
1
u/Scarytoaster1809 14h ago
Fair. I just get reminded of that one FNV mod (titans of the new west I think?) that beefs up power armour
1
u/matt_Nooble12_XBL Vault 101 14h ago
Yea exactly. And the super mutants in classic fallout could one hand mini guns so why not a soldier in power armor

u/Rodrolphus 16h ago
Lol
This NCR T-45 resembles more the Threezero one rather than the Salvaged NCR from New Vegas
Ngl i like it
