FIVE[501st] Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Where are some good, high-res images of an ESB E-11 blaster? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperTrooper Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 In a thread from years ago I posted up a bunch of screen grabs from ESB. I'm not even sure of the title of the thread, but I think it had to do with EIB requirements and the promo EBS blaster that had been cast and was being offered at the time with extra greeblies on it.

Yeah, I thought I had that bookmarked, but couldn't find it... hence this post. Let me know if you find, and I will do the same. In the meantime... anyone else?

v7sg[TK] Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 It all depends if you want to go Screen used Blaster or promo Blaster, Personally I prefer Screen Used to promo, but that's just me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john danter Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Whist not a genuine one, this is mine, based on a real one Real one Real one Thing you can't see in these pics is the lense material. It's like C3POs eyes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FIVE[501st] Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 That's awesome John, thanks! But... it has the greeblies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john danter Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 There were 3 types Noel. Some snowies had this type So which one you after? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FIVE[501st] Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 I guess the kind most of the TKs had on Cloud City. I like the greeblies... if that's what most of them had, then great... just want it to be most known as the ESB blaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonnenschein Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Thing you can't see in these pics is the lense material. It's like C3POs eyes Nice blaster! but what do you mean with lense material? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john danter Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Nice blaster! but what do you mean with lense material? Thanks I mean in the scope Karin Noel: they had all sorts. Carbonite chamber the lads on standby seem to have the grreblie version. But the one who stands behind Leia as she starts to recoil from Vader has the normal railed one like ANH. Up to you. Personally I'd go for the ones like mine as it's clear what it is (to those who know) Otherwise it just looks like an ANH blaster minus the counter box.....?

TK bondservnt[501st] Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 the ROTJ version is based upon a MGC sterling copy. the mgc version has many different details. the dimension of the tube is smaller 35mm the bolt. end cap and barrel front. the folding stock and grips. everything is slightly different. even the trigger is different! then you add the sight rail, scope and hammer greeblies for the final touches. the front sling mount and C channel grip tracks on the barrel finally make for the distinguishing features on the ROTJ version...

john danter Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Does this help? L to R ROTJ x 2, ESB, ANH It's a different base gun for a start. Canadian MGC thingie. Sterling variant. T track has gone, ROTJ use C shaped fins Clips have been replaced with concerte clips. Some greeblies have gone Scope is different hopefully the line up above shows it a little more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FIVE[501st] Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 YES! That helps. Is that a pic you took? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The MGC version was used in ROTJ as all the trooper scenes were shot in the US and it was the nearest base gun they could get to the UK sterling. Its actually a copy of the canadian C1 which is in itself a sterling copy !! basically its a recast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
