Hi, recently started my ROTJ fett and am having a really hard time sourcing items for the blaster especially in the UK due to our stupid gun laws, either in kit form or a replica. Checked Ebay, sale threads, and have come up empty handed so any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'ts just how much you want to spend. You can buy a complete master replica's blaster from e-bay. There is a german who sells them.
You should have no problem with customs then.
I've made my blaster myself from a simple toy cowboy revolver.
I used a 50 mm PVC rain pipe for the barrel, two metal flash lights connected with the rear ends with a shorth metal pipe for the visor, the adjust knobs are from a seat-toolbox of a Tomos moped, "cooling fins" are window draft strips. the rear end and grip are carved out of wood and screwed to a 3 mm self made metal base plate. The only thing I've bought on e bay are the 4 greeblies at the end. (2 left and 2 right) The one on the side are electrical wire clips used by train modelers.
The front of the barrel is a sawed simple funnel with a 8 mm washer gleued on. And with a little filler and glue constructed all this together.
I'ts not complete movie accurate, but it'll do the job.
Greetz, Jeroen.

Sidewinder a member here is in the UK and makes blasters. Send him a PM.
have spoken with sidewinder and will be ordering one from him, as soon as i've finished paying for my first order of fett stuff that is.
If youŽd be interested in a metal version of the ROTJ EE-3 drop me a line.Originally Posted by nogga_nootch
I have a fully finished blaster up FS and being from Germany would help with the customs issue
