To be honest, I'm not ruling anything out at the moment. Everything anyone is mentioning is all me learning, and stuff I add to my search terms. The mag well doesn't have a serial number on top or bottom. I took a pic of both, but given forum image size limitations, what I uploaded was just the underside and the scope. But no visible serial numbers anywhere. The former owner is away at the moment, but his son will ask him to get back to me when he returns, so we shall see.

Thanks themaninthesuitcase. There is no visible serial number on the sterling itself, so perhaps that helps in itself. The last few numbers in the M38's serial number are hard to make out, but looks like "...380".

Ha! It was bad enough when I started obsessing over the different sabers, let alone this! 🤣

[snip] ...Heh. I actually spend last weekend watching ANH frame-by-frame looking at any scenes that had E-11s, so you certainly see how different the screen-used ones are. For me personally, it just looks more complete with the counter and the cylinders, but given the variations, there's certainly not single 'right way'. Thanks for that. Heck, even googling RS Props and resin E-11 has helped. I've now seen pics of the "Pugman" which wasn't a term I was familiar with, so I'm sure all the details will come into view. I've emailed the seller as well in case they knew more about it. But as I say, I suddenly became concerned today about the risk of ruining something by modifying it. I mean, sure, it's mine, and I can do with it what I want, but just want to check these things first.

Hi all. First post, so please be gentle. I'm a long-time collector, and joining the 501st has been on and off (and on and off) the to-do list. None of my existing stuff would make certification (For example, my Vader still has a lot of Rubies stuff in it), except for my TK which I'm working on. Well...Working on as in it's in a box in the garage while life has higher priorities at the moment. Now I'm in New Zealand, so things can be harder to come by, or have some pretty hefty freight sometimes. An E-11 has been on my to-get list for a while. I have a kit I'm looking at putting together, or having done professionally, as I worry about not doing it justice myself. But I recently had a solid cast resin (Not 3D printed resin) E-11 come up on our version of eBay, so I snagged it. This blaster lacks the Hengstler counter and metalmite capacitors/power cylinders, and so I printed some up with the intention of adding them, and suddenly I thought, "Hold up. What if this item has some history behind it, and you're about the damage that history by modifying the item?". So before I went down that road, I wanted to ask if anyone is aware of who might have been making solid resin E-11s like this one in the UK, 10+ years ago. Thanks in advance, Peter
