MandalorianWarrior87 Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Was just wondering who makes the best E-11's out there, I've heard of things like "Hyperfirm" and things but not really sure what these are, Or how to get hold of one. Would really appreciate some help. Sorry, I know it's a "Noob" question. Also, I'm in the UK so if there are any makers in the UK, That would help quite a bit. Thanks in advance.

Daetrin Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 I personally think the only "best" blaster is one you own Seriously, there are pros and cons of each and what's best for one is not best for others. Cost Accuracy Ruggedness Details All influence things. What are your criteria? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitty Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Number one with you being in the UK you need for it to arrive in kit fashion. The guy that sell's resin e-11 kits by the name of Makerofthings on ebay turns out top notch work and the kit is less than $100 shipped here in the states. Maybe just a wee bit more to get to the UK. I do know that his kits have always made it thru customs as well. If ya cant find him give me a holla and I'll drop him a line 4 ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MandalorianWarrior87 Posted June 12, 2008 Author Share Posted June 12, 2008 Thanks guys. Yeh, I heard of MakerOfThings over on the FISD, Also got in contact with Cushman. Both their kits look amazing. Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stukatrooper Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Hi,you could build your own blaster its alot of fun This is my scratch build or you could grab a kit from this UK maker http://www.doopydoos.com/star-wars-props-a...plicas-31-c.asp Hes very good and a top bloke,i get most of my bits from him.

TD-6958 Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 so i take a real sterling and make a E-11 with real Scope and Hengstel Box but it is to heavy for trooping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD9009 Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 The guy on the video I've posted only made the blaster and put inside it the electronics. The electronic board, instead, comes from this website: plecterlabs.com Cost is 85 Euro. Cheers, Alberto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SethB6025 Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I would love a real Sterling as a display piece. Mike had one and as cool as it was as a prop I don't think I'd want to troop with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 so i take a real sterling and make a E-11 with real Scope and Hengstel Box but it is to heavy for trooping I'll be happy to take it off your hands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD-6958 Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I'll be happy to take it off your hands only from my cold dead hands or in trade for this blaster Look HERE (The written text on the forum post is Italian... but images are really GOOD!) and look at the movie HERE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slave1pilot Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 what's the best "trooping" blaster ? I'd have to say the Hyper-Firm is the absolute best on the market But, I am a little biased Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 I'll second that. For E-11's, I have to say that I've seen some resin jobbers that look much more detailed, but for all around durability you can't beat HF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MandalorianWarrior87 Posted June 15, 2008 Author Share Posted June 15, 2008 Anyone know any makers in the UK though? Thanks again guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slave1pilot Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 No UK "Makers" You'll have to find someone in the US (Outside of California) to reship it for you Lewis is doing a run right now if you find a shipper http://www.mepd.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4158 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
