Albino Fett Pre Pro Rifle Reference Pictures

This is the screen used prop from the Pre-Pro pictures of the Albino Boba Fett. Steve Sansweet had it in his collection, so I was sure to take plenty of reference pictures for the community.

Unheard of high-quality reference here. Thanks!!!!

Yes... just like SS said, many THANKS!

Excellent work!

This should be stickied up with the other blaster stuff!

I'm sure someone will be doing an albino Fett at sometime if not already!

I know somebody said something before about using the jet pack stabilizer in the barrel, but is that one of the knee dart launchers on the side?

You're welcome to everybody!

I have a thread in the Sarlaac Pit with all of my other photos

Well Steve's computer broke, so he invited his friend and my CO Damien up to his house to fix it, and he also needed manual labour to clean up, reorganize, and throw away a bunch of junk. So he invited the garrison up to be the slave labor.
Steve said that you can touch and pick up anything you want, just as long as you put it right back where you found it.

HAZAH the trip OWNED!!!

and the caption for my pic:

BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HEADSHOT!!

Outstanding!!!

Great work! The photos answer a question of mine. The Graflex used for the barrel is the different model than the one used for Luke's saber in ANH. You can tell by the machined "stripes" (rings) toward the end of the flash tube.

Holy Cow GCNgamer128!!!

These pics are awesome!!!!

Something I noticed about the gun--in addition to the stabilizer and knee from the other thread, the ribbed looking thing behind the knee dart looks the handle to the Paterson mixer stir stick. Those of you that own one will recognize it.

Awesome pics of the uzi. Thanks for showing us!!!!

NICE POST GCNgamer128!! :thumbup

QUESTION: Did you get any good Pics of the JET PACK you posted pics of ???

And just in case there are those that don't know what he's talking about..."ALBINO"...

In total, I have about 5 pictures of the ROTJ jet pack.

Included in my PM to SpideyFett:

I didn't get a chance to get the jet pack out, but believe it or not, the screen used jet pack was made out of foam. That way Boba could fall and roll around without a chunk of fiberglass on his back. The pack itself was extremely beaten up, the rocket had been torn off, along with the left thruster, they both were glued back on. The repair to the pack was pretty poor, the glue was exposed and the thruster wasn't glued on straight.

Andy

Just noticed that in the pics that Spidey posted the Graflex is turned with the "ears" up as though they were a gun sight, yet on the prop in the collection it is turned ninety degrees so that the "ears" are on the side.

It appeared to be held in with tape, the lower part of the tube was wrapped in tape and then slid into the resin Uzi. On the gun's right shot of the Graflex, you will see a square little shiney area, this isn't weathering, it's a metallic tape. It might be able to turn if you try to move it.

Hi Andy,

thanks for the great pics.
I finished the work on my gun 2 weeks ago and now I have to correct some details.
Here´re some pics of the gun.

Sven

Just another question about the Pre Pro Blaster;

on the costume pic (sorry for taking Spideyfett ;-) below it looks like the graflex pipe has moved 45 degree to the Sansweet Gun.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Sven

Forget the last entry, I´am drunken.

Yup, that's the part I mentioned.

Whoa! That's an AWESOME replica, PM me if you're willing to sell a copy

HI Andy,

PM send.

What´s about the metallic box on the right side of the gun, is there any information about it?
I build the trinangle box on the left side from a replica UZI Ammo Magazin, I don´t know if it is the right part but it came very close to the original.

Sven

WOW! Looks like I have to go back and update my drawings. Those are some fantasic pics.

Thank you

Alan

Don't know if it's been mentioned, but the piece on the front looks like one of the morse-code tappers or something.

Got a picture of a morse code tapper?

Actually, when I was researching this piece I was informed that it has the old style Graflex's have a lever type release botton, much like a telegraph key. I have only seen one small image of it except for the pics here. I will be adding that feature to my drawings in the near future.

So if you can find a really old Graflex you'll be in business good luck with that one.

Sven

WOW! You did a fantastic job on this piece! If I can ask what did you use for the base gun, it looks real! I can't wait to see your upgrades.

Alan

Boba die Wix,
That's an amazing looking replica!! Wow.
I see under your member name it says you live in Trier?? I went to Trier many times when I was stationed at Spangdahlem AB (I'm in the US Air Force.) Trier was a fun place to go. My wife and I used to like going down to the stores and restaurants in the Centrum. We lived in Speicher for about 3 years. It was only about a half hour from Trier.

Hi Alan,

I took a 1:1 UZI Softair (AEG) Gun Replica and a standard grafelx 2 (or 3) cell for the base of the gun.
here´s a link for an auction of a real UZI, why not??? http://www.egun.de/market/item.php?id=1275472

The "barrel" is a custom made aluminium Jet Pack Stabilizer. All I need now is the right display box. Any idea?
Thanks
Sven

Hi Superjedi,
nice to hear that.
I went many times in the past to spangdahlem. I´am a police officer in Germany and in the past we protected the base from the bad taliban fighters around here.
So I remember the housings on Speicher ;-)

Please let me know if you´re staying in the future around your old town Speicher, you´re very welcome.

Hey Sven

Seems like you finally made it, great blaster!
Why don´t you pics of it while wearing your white mando ?!

Hi Eric, seems like you´re visiting as many forums as I do

Markus

Sven,
Thanks! Don't know if I will ever get to visit Germany again, but if I do, I'd love to see your props.

And Markus?!?! I suppose this is another blaster you'll be building now!!
What will happen when you run out of blasters to build??

Eric

Running out of blasters to build???...Guess that won´t happen buddy
I have PLENTY of projects and ideas

But that blaster is not on my list for quite a time

Markus

Anyone else think that this post should be sticky?

I will be working on these drawings hopefully this week and I will be doing the control panel as well as a few other correction. If you like I can drop you a PM when they are ready?

I'll stick to toy guns for my mods. As much as I would like to have the real thing, the firearms cortol folks are really cracking down. In some states you can't even have a toy gun that looks real, orange muzzle or not. (Edited for content - I had a bit more to say on this)

I have to say it again Great Job on the blaster.

Alan

Hi Alan, yes I´am very interested in the control panel. Please PM me if they´re ready.
Thanks a lot.

I change the colour into a dull black and add the side display.

Looks Good Sven. I might have to try one of those if I can find a good Uzi to base it on. What did you use to make the angles piece on the side with the patterson tool handle?

Phil

Hi Phil, I took the supplied ammo magazine (or better parts of it) from the uzi for the side piece. I´don´t know, what it was made of. But I think it fit. Thanks
Sven

Looking good, nice job.

Andy, thanks for those pics man! They will help a TON!
