1/6 scale ESB EE-3

New Hunter
Okay, back in 2010, Hasbro went all out for the 30th anniversary of "The Empire Strikes Back". Which was cool, especially for us bounty hunter fans, namely of Mr. Fett. So I bought up more than my share of Fett memorabilia. One of the coolest things I procured that year was the 12" Boba Fett. He is about as appropriate and accurate for ESB as you can get, without spending hundreds on a highly collectible figure or custom.

ANYWAY, getting to the point, I always hated his EE-3. First off, it's cheap and cheap looking. Second, it's a ROTJ blaster! So, with some odds and ends lying around and an over active imagination, I decided to make a proper rifle for my miniature Fett. Using a cheap "rubber" revolver from an old gum ball machine, a bobby pin, a piece of 3/8" brake line, heat shrink tubing, glue, Popsicle sticks, a lighter, and sandpaper, I crafted this: (it is still unfinished, mind you, and this was literally thrown together overnight)
