I haven't been following Google Glass much, and now I am starting to, but I couldn't find any general release date (consumer version) info, is it supposed to come out this year?  If not is there going to be a price drop any time soon?

Your guess is as good as any, people thought last year some time or early this year... 

 

Edit: Technically it is available for purchase to anyone (over 18 I think) but it is at $1500 still and I think it is still an "Explorer" Edition.

Well, in the UK anyone over 18 can buy it. 

You have to be over 18 WTF?  I know, but that is the developer version, like Oculus, and it costs $1500 when it costs $150 to make...

Probably something to do with being responsible with it. Or they just don't want anyone under that age testing it for some reason. 

 

Not sure about full release. I don't think it will take off to be honest. It looks kind of stupid and has already been banned in several places.
