  3. Jkno's MGC ROTJ E-11

    in ROTJ BlasTech E11

    Posted

    I love it! CCongrats, this is a perfect piece of collection. Now I just need to do the same with my MGC too. I might ask you some advice down the way one of these days ;).

     

    Thanks Germain. If I can help, no problem :)

     

    Very impressive work Sergiu. I love the stands they really show off the blastets well.

     

    Thank you Chris. Our friend Rob made them. :smiley-sw013:

  13. TFA viewings. Opinions on the movie? (Spoiler zone)

    in Off Topic

    Posted

    I watched TFA and I have to say it is indeed a good SW movie, and remember I'm a big OT fan. The acting was really fine, Han was great (including solo ;) , with Rey and Finn, and with Leia), you can feel Harrison did his best for this role, Rey and Finn totally have the chemistry going, hope we'll see more of Poe Dameron. I also liked Kylo's quite complex character torn between the two worlds, not a powerful Sith, but an unbalanced wannabe baddie who finally chooses his path.

    The overall plot was a bit too safe, by following OT (ANH and ESB) steps, but was kind of understandable considering this was the first movie from a new trilogy (or even 2 trilogies, who knows). Special effects were great, but that was to be expected.

    Waiting to see the next "Death Star" in episode 8. :P

    Phasma and Luke were a bit of a disappointment. Phasma really should have had more going to her, hope she will come back, and Luke in the final scenes was too odd. It would have been ok for a short scene, but it was too long, and became weird.  :mellow:

    In the next films we also need to find out and understand how and why Rey has access so fast to the Force, because otherwise it would be weird (Luke's daughter maybe but even so, you know what I mean). I didn't like the scenes with the tentacle monster on Han's ship, it was too forced, and also a bit the way Finn turns against his fellow Stormtroopers, he found his way, but shoots his former colleagues too easily, at least at the beginning.

    My personal conclusion: TFA beats the Prequels the same way furry Ewoks beat both the Rebels and the Empire on Endor LOL :lol:

    It is not perfect, but a good start for the new Star Wars.

    That graphic is from the 2004(?) Guide to Weapons and Technology. It was the updated book that came out in between episodes 2 and 3.

    It is there inded on the left page. And they are showing the schematics of a ROTJ E-11 under the text on the right page. And this still doesn't make it screen accurate.

  22. Legal Sterling Conversion In Cali

    unique canes blaster build from sterling...

    "Stormtrooper Blaster is full length and weight utilizing all metal parts. The selector switch works, the trigger assembly works, and folding metal stock works. The receiver is solid metal with no moving parts. The Dummy Magazine Shell is not functional and is removable from the housing with the release button. The Stock works perfectly and swings out to lock into the spring loaded butt cap, folds under and locks into place. The Actuator Handle is welded in place for realism. This is the Original Sterling SMG Dummy SMG!"

     

    I think you'd better get the bare Sterling from Unique Canes or at least their simple conversion instead of the one posted above, which has some inaccurate parts.

    And you might be able to get more accurate Hengstler counter, scope and scope rail to upgrade it.
