  1. Hengstler 400: both with big and small eagle, and with metal socket are accurate. Scopes: M38/M40 and M19/M32 are all accurate, not M38A2 though (unless modified to fill the mid channel and look like a regular M38/M40). You can add a block on top. It all depends of the scene, some blasters come with one greeblie, but maybe not the other. Andy aka PlayfulWolfCub made a very nice PDF about blasters and cylinders too.

  2. The scope seems to be upside down and the seam on top is distracting, and it is way too back on the rail, the t-tracks are too short and they missed some holes, and the wires look bad. The Hengstler counter is way too backwards and doesn't look too good either, at least the back part. It has the same fat grips and long endcap like all airsoft Sterlings so far.

     

    How hard is for these companies to make a decently accurate Stormtrooper blaster, or at least a decent looking Sterling - may it be a L2A3 based or a C1 based, but not a combo of the two? It's not like they cannot have enough images of good E-11 or Sterlings out there, considering present internet access... In some aspects the Hasbro blaster looks better.

    Not impressed.----------

  3. No Star Wars collectible from Sideshow is accurate. None. They are not known for accuracy, but for their "artistic interpretation", something which may go ok with Marvel and DC collectors, but for sure doesn't work so well with Star Wars collectors. The statue is not accurate and waaaaay too overpriced. You can get a few accurate armors and cool flexible mannequins to make a small Stormtrooper army instead of this statue.
