Having the hardest time finding a crafter of Jango Fett Westar blasters

I am having the hardest time finding these that are not the Master Replica ones.

Anyone know of a crafter that can make these for a reasonable price?

Thank you
 
The MRs are expensive, but they are worth it if you decide to go that route. The rubies aren't very accurate especially the end of the barrel which is too big. There are some resin ones on eBay from time to time. The quality varies. They can look good with a little work.
 
Cruzer here one the forum has done at least one run of hiqh quality Jango blasters.
Don't know if he still offers them, just try and shoot him a PM.
 
i need buy jango blasters i ask to cruzer and he tell me that he dont make blasters :(
somebody knows who make jango blasters?
send me a private mail thanks
 
same question guys, I cant find anywhere on the forum that shows were I could get a set of the Westar 34 blasters.
I contacted cruzer and he told me he don't make them anymore
 
My molds of the MR blasters wore out a long time ago, but it's just a matter of someone making new molds. I've been asked a few times now so I can see if I can find time, but no promises.
 
I have been looking for a set for over a year. I continue to use my MR's to troopin, but they are starting to show signs of wear and I would love to retire them back into their display box- SO if anyone is considering making these I would still be interested.
 
Was looking at the resin kit on Amazon.com...anyone know anything about them? Always hard to tell it is what you're going to end up with.
 
I think that given the fact we have outstanding complete and thorough Drawings by WizardOfFlight, there's no reason we can't find a reputable company that does machining, I think especially if done in the form of a run, it would be our best bet. A few years ago I attempted and almost got a local business to do so, but they backed out on account they didn't feel their tools were adequate for the job
 
I just had a quote from an engineering business here, based on the templates provided here and they estimated between $800-$1000 AUS per pistol!!!! :(
So I am still looking too ;)

Wow! That's an amazing amt of cash! While I could eventually save and buy something like that, think I'll go with modified toys or resin counterparts. Now if someone could eventually make some aluminum ones for around the $300 point I'd rethink that....

I used to own a set of MR westars (really regret selling them) and the machining on the barrels themselves wasn't all that complex at all. It was cool how they had the inner brass pipe holding the whole thing together. I was planning on remaking the grips in stainless (which looks the perfect shade of gray when against aluminum) for the ones I had but never got around to it when I owned them.The grips would be a real PITA to hold onto for machining and would undoubtedly require multiple fixtures unless you had access to some serious multi-axis toys. When it comes to making this type of stuff, considering all the work that goes into them from designing in CAD, to programming and setting up the machines etc, and then the time it takes to cut them, the only way to keep cost down is to produce a BUNCH of them at a time. This is just a ballpark guess, but you'd probably need to commit to produce around 30-50 sets of blasters to get even close to the $300 mark, if they were all metal (Alu & SS). Having resin grips would lower that price significantly, but you'd still need to produce quite a few of them.
 
i'm going to a machine shop to have the fan made ones i bought off ebay to get them more screen accurate using WOF's prints going to get the grips machined as well using solid brass stock in the middle instead of tubing yeah they'll be heavier but harder for a kid to pull out
 
I have found Alluminium and brass barrels available through evolution props, along with the trigger and base plate for the grip at a fairly reasonable price!! Anyone seen these before? I was thinking of ordering a set
