TrooperBay's E-11 - OK for ANH/501st?

[batninja]

Forgive a dumb question, but is the blaster pictured on Mike's website acceptable for 501st admission for ANH Stunt?  

 

Or a better question, is there a single thread/post/website that describes the differences in the E-11 from movie to movie?

Eric,

 

An E11 isn't required for admittance to the 501st at all.

 

It is an optional accessory and only required if you want to get additional FISD accuracy levels, but is in no way required for 501st acceptance.

 

The blaster offered on trooperbay is a doopydoo kit, and when built correctly is acceptable for all levels of FISD accuracy.

Is it considered ANH?   The reason I ask, is that for level 2 (EIB, I'm assuming?) the requirements are rather stringent:

 

For level two certification (if applicable):

• Folding stock (does not need to function).
• A real or replica ammo counter - based off of a Hengstler counter - shall be present.
• D-ring mounted on the rear.
• Sterling based blasters have the correct M-38 or M-19 style scope.
• Two power cylinders on the magazine housing.
• Scratch-built, resin cast, Hyperfirm rubber cast blasters shall have a total of 6 T-tracks on blaster (leaving the lowest row on the magazine housing side uncovered).
• If using the Hasbro E11 toy blaster and you cover all the rows of holes, the blaster will have 7 T-tracks total. But, if you want to have the correct number of T-tracks (6 total) with the lower row of open vent holes on the magazine housing side, then you shall cover the pre-existing rows of holes with T-tracks, and grind off the lower integrated T-track on the magazine housing side and drill a new row of holes in its place.
• No ESB/ROTJ greeblies are allowed on the blaster.

 

I just want to make sure I'm not wasting cash if I decide to make that purchase!

Yes, the doopydoos kit is mainly an ANH version but can be adapted to ESB as well by omitting the hengstler counter and power cylinders.

They seem stringent, but if you really look into what it is asking for, the kit has everything you need.

 

While it's not the most accurate kit available it is good for it's price range.

 

I offer a full pipe build which is pretty kickass (if I do say so myself). The run is current full but there is a standby list

[batninja]

Yeah, I saw those - very nice!  And I may be in the market for one down the line.

 

The hard part about Mike's website, is that there is only one picture of the kit, so it's difficult to verify what the underside of the kit looks like.

There are plenty of doopydoo kit builds you can look at to get a better view.
