TK 69169[TK] Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 There's an E-11 conversion on eBay that I would like to bid on, I'm looking for some opinions of the vets first. I don't know if its against the rules to post an active eBay link, so I won't. If anyone at there wouldn't mind helping, please PM me. Thanks.

Ditch[501st] Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 I believe if it's the DoopyDoos kit the you would be safe. But I may be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolderMaster Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 (edited) LOL I just emailed a guy selling one. He asked if the blaster with the Doopy Doos kit was acceptable for 501st impression...here's the email. Hi, I'm selling a Hasbro blaster upgraded with the Doopydoo's skin conversion kit on eBay. I had a question from a potential buyer who asked if this weapon was appropriate for a 501st impression. I had to admit, I didn't know. Could you tell me if this kind of blaster is acceptable? I'd appreciate a swift reply so I can get back to him before the auction ends. Thanks, Mark And my responce... Hi Mark, A Hasbro blaster upgraded with the Doopy Doos kit, is 501st acceptable. However, it is ONLY acceptable for basic approval for the Stormtrooper and it's variants. It is NOT acceptable for Expert or Centurion status. These are detachment based degrees of screen accuracy. Before you take my words and add them to your eBay listing, please send me a picture of the blaster or the link to your auction so I may verify what you are actually selling. Best Regards, Brian Rogers TK-5569 Imperial Stormtrooper Attaché Wisconsin Garrison Member Liason 501st Legion He did send me pictures and it is perfectly fine. Brian, Here are the pictures of my blaster. As you can see, I've gone beyond the basic conversion and added wires from the terminals of the counter box leading to the magazine cylinders as I've seen done on more "professional" jobs. I've also added the six-digit number gauge found on the original E & H counter boxes. Of course, the buyer will want to weather or otherwise customize the blaster personally. I'm also including a couple of targeting reticle decals for the rear "lens" of the scope. What do you think of these photos? Here is the lin-------------- I tried adding the pics here but they don't work, sorry.

Mongoose[TK] Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 You can have a Hasbro conversion and still get Expert Infantry. It's only Centurian that they aren't allowed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK 69169[TK] Posted March 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 @SolderMaster, he emailed me back stating he checked with a 501st officer and they said it would be okay. I'm starting to learn the 501st is a small world. I've checked with my advisor and he said it was a great job. Thanks everyone. Wish me luck.
