Millar007[TK] Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 Ok, weighing up options! I know E11 isn't required for 501st approval, but while I'm waiting on my armor...damnit I WANT one! ;-)<br> Narrowed down (don't have time to build myself) to a concerted Hasbro via a local Garrison member on commission, or a B grade hyperfirm. I know one only bounces & the other goes "pew pew pew", but what are thoughts ($ is equivalent) on which is best choice - I'm just doing this to troop and am not super fussed on screen accuracy (please don't stone me!!!)

BuzzLiteBeer Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 Hey Jefferson, I think ultimately it depends on what you intend to do with it and who might borrow your blaster from time to time. (if you let kids hold it for photos) I've been working on getting all my stuff and bought one of the updated ANH hyperfirms. Looks sweet and extremely durable. It is what I'll definitely prefer to troop with, still looking to get a modded hasbro. If it were me I'd say both Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justjoseph63[Staff] Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 Another vote for hyperfim here.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkrestonva[TK] Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 Hyperfirm all the way. About the only reason you could possibly want the converted Hasbro over the B-grade Hyperfirm is for the "pew pew!" lights and sounds.

OrangeBird[TK] Posted October 30, 2015 Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 As many have said... Hyperfirm is the way to go. Just got mine a few weeks ago, and it's absolutely gorgeous! Totally worth it, also, didn't take long to receive at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinsei[TK] Posted October 30, 2015 Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 (edited) Add another +1 to Hyperfirm. Got mine a couple of weeks ago. Haven't trooped yet, but it's something I wouldn't worry about handing it out for others to hold. Edited October 30, 2015 by Jinsei Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millar007[TK] Posted October 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 One hyper firm received in the mail last week! Had to restrain myself from ordering a dlt-14 also! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Target92[TK] Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 I went with the Hyperfirm, and sorry to threadjack but how do you remove the little orbs of buildup? It bothers me seeing all of these imperfections on an otherwise gorgeous weapon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
