Jkno's collection

[Onegai]

I would love to have one of these underground.

Star Wars bunker. Mmmmm!

Thanks. In fact this is not a basement, but a room in the house, 2 rooms in fact since the 1:1 Stormtrooper is in the PC room

Wow... it seems like your collection is the only one that is still updated Jkno.

[jkno]

Yeah but unfortunately not in anime

Recently I got a real deactivated British Sterling Mk4/L2A3 SMG Stormtrooper blaster with real M-40 Tank scope on it, and accurate T-tracks. It even comes with a cool metal plaque and an official deactivation certificate from UK (so is legal here too). Only the cylinders seem not 100% accurate, but I might get a set from Russ Replicas.

It is in PERFECT condition, since I've seen others with rust, and even with damage on various parts. Wanted this for years, but finally got it from a ReplicaPropForum UK member for a hell of a price. Couldn't believe my eyes, and is the real deal, not a replica. And I found out that it was made by Chris King aka cking and by Neil Ellis aka Vos, 2 of the big professionals out there.

It is simply awesome indeed, all the details that makes this very close to a screen used thing. Cannot get better than this, I got my blaster collection to a new level. A chapter of my collecting just closed, and another has opened.
































It seems there as many as 6 or even 8 different versions of E-11 in SW ANH (according to different scources), some with all greeblies (Hengstler counter and cylinders on the magazine - like SDS), some with just the Hengstler, some with just the cylinders (like Han's - and mine) and others with nothing (like MR).


Mine just looks like this one:





Or here: http://www.partsofsw.com/index.htm it is like the BlasTech E-11 (Stormtrooper Blaster) ANH Version C aka Han Solo's blaster from the detention cell block, when he is shooting at the comm panel. It seems the seller intention was indeed to make it like that, that's why no Hengstler on it, just the 2 cylinders.
