Vengeance[TK] Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 (edited) Not sure if this is old news to everyone else but looking through some promo shots a blaster stuck out to me. Now I'm a big fan of the SE-14R and have built a few myself, but this is something totally different. Anyone got an idea what we are looking at here? also check out those sandy kneeplates!

BananoPower22[TK] Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 (edited) That's weird ------- never thought i'd see a tk with a td sniper plate Edited July 31, 2022 by gmrhodes13 link removed no longer working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vengeance[TK] Posted May 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 (edited) If you look at his buddy to our left he's still missing his ab button plate too and his bicep is eating his shoulder. I imagine this was taken sometime after filming in Tunisia jusdging by the dirty armor. The blaster to our right is quite block like and a flash hider is viewable so that may mean it still has its barrel unlike the Rexim Favor's so I'm thinking this is based off of some smg. It also appears to have a wire similar if not identical to the one used on the Power Five if I recall correctly. Here's a quick examination I did. Anyone else spot anything? ----------- Edited July 31, 2022 by gmrhodes13 link removed no longer working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK bondservnt[501st] Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 it looks like a block of wood... seriously! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjsavage7[TK] Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 I think I've seen this pic somewhere before. Can't remember though. That blaster looks like its made out of Legos! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about that, I ran a direct comparison with my sons Lego blaster collection, and I think they have far too much detail for that: --------- Edited July 31, 2022 by gmrhodes13 link removed no longer working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marv Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 (edited) Gaines On a serious note the shape is similar to this French gun, MAT 49 9mm SMG.: ---------- Edited July 31, 2022 by gmrhodes13 link removed no longer working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troopermaster Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 (edited) I'm pretty sure it was based on a Japanese Type 96 Light Machine Gun. -------- Edited July 31, 2022 by gmrhodes13 link removed no longer working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locitus[Admin] Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 I second what Paul says, I remember reading about this before and I think it was pretty conclusive at that time that it was from some Japanese gun, which Paul perfectly demonstrates.

Vengeance[TK] Posted May 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 That definitely looks like our weird blaster. Nice work Paul. John yours looks quite similar too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marv Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 (edited) I think Paul nailed it with that. This link is pretty good, and details a few world wide smg type armaments. If you look under Japan there are a few variants of this type 96 which all look very similar. ----------- Edited July 31, 2022 by gmrhodes13 link removed no longer working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
