Official Pre-Pro "Sling Gun" Thread

[BigaboyFett]

If this schematic were replicated in Fiber Glass. Would there be interest in such an item...

Let me know by PM. I may prototype one for a caster friend. LMK

I might be intrested but I think the little trigger button should be on the front of the gun not on the back.

 

[BigaboyFett]

The trigger position is odd, I agree. It is based on the action figure and pre-pro photos. A thumb trigger. Weird, like on a joystick. The other sling being offered on TDH is very nice, awesome actually...it is like the difference between Maroon and Cabernet used on ROTJ gauntlets...hmmmm. Very similar, but different.

I'm looking for a pre-pro blaster, anyone with some info please contact me.

 

[BigaboyFett]

Looky at mine. It is like the one the White Fett has. UZI-based...

Here is my Blaster...

Another shot...

I based it on an UZI, which was the weapon he was holding in the white fett pic. I beefed up the barrel a bit and got rid of the silly metal stick and circuit board. Let me know what you think.

Ok...

I'm going to be working on my kick rump pre pro blaster kit, but I was trying to find pics of the actual to base my paint job on it... Since the online CD is out for the time being, does anyone know of a place online where there are good pre-pro pics?

I did the search here but I didn't find but one live link?

Thanks.

Do guys think I could turn a Nintendo Zapper into one? im juts wondering how I could attach the little PVC to the gun itself, I know I could proboly make the back part easy, but any ideas on attchment?

 

[BigaboyFett]

Bore through the back-end with a large drill bit, push a dowel rod in and JB Weld the heck out of it! Use Balsawood, Pine or layers of Sintra with Bondo as a butt!

Good luck!

Hey guys I've got one of the sling-gun kits and I was wondering if you guys could help me out...

Anybody have any pics of the prepro sling-gun? I've got the card board stand up, but you can't make out much of the detail or even the color used.

What sort of sling would I use and how would be the correct may to conect it to the gun?

Any help would be great. Thanks

 

[CombatBaby]

Hello,

Look what was just post over on RPF. One more piece of the puzzle falls into place.

http://www.rpf.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=113679&st=0

I will be doing blueprints of the Sling gun in the near future so stay tuned. This find is going to help out a great deal.

Well I could resist taking a shot at some blueprint based on the photos that were posted. Once some real dimensions get posted I'll revise them.

Anyone still make these? I'm going to need one for my prepro v2, but it seems like this is one of the less reproduced pieces of Fett's arsenal.
If anyone can drop me a pm to even just get me on the right track, I'd appreciate it.



Thanks

I've been looking for these too so i know how you feel Hellopike:facepalm

So I have some questions to bring up about the PrePro blaster.

Looking at various images, there looks like their were 2 different versions of the prepro blaster. A Black and silver version with a red trigger, and a blue and silver verion with a charred barrel.

Now the Black and silver version I've only seen in two cropped images... Does this version show up in any promotional shots, or is it just a replica someone made with different colors?

Number 1

number 2



thanks

Phil

Here's some photo reference of the PrePro blaster I've found around the interweb- most of which that I don't believe is posted anywhere on TDH. I figure I'd post it all here on the official thread, and host it at my domain because I'm not going anywhere, and sometimes userposted images vanish...

Hi,
the base of the gun is made by "Kaiser Fototechnik", a German Company, it´s called "Schulterstativ" Here´s a pic of my packed one.
