Re: Jkno's collection

Thanks Jay, Thierry and Al! Glad Gigel has his weapon now he can fight the pesky rebels


Here are some details regarding the SDS E-11 blaster compared with the Master Replicas one. The MR version is metal with some resin and plastic parts, thus really heavy, feels like the real weapon. It is also very solid, I have my loose one and I can say you can hit someone in the head with it LOL and only the paint might chip on the blaster.

The MR is more idealized than the SDS one, and also misses a few details like the spring detail on the right part (present on the real Sterling) and of course the Hengstler counter and the power cylinders with coils - but these last 2 items are not present on all Stormie blasters in SW, so I guess it's ok - but still the Hengstler counter and the power cylinders with coils look cool on the blaster. The SDS one is made of plastic tubing and resin parts, thus lightweight and good for trooping.


Some fast comparison shots - SDS top and MR down:

Re: Jkno's collection

Rhaaa... Another one!?
I love it!
... But I can't help but laugh when I see the name.
Why "Cheese Grater"?

Is it in 1:1 scale, Sergiu?

Merci Thierry! It was paid long ago and had a nice discount on it too, but due to the LucasFilm vs SDS lawsuit there was a delay. It is 1:1 indeed. I guess they called it cheese grater because looks like swiss cheese with holes in it

Great Score Again, Congrats Sergiu, Sweet Death Star Helmet

Thanks Al. It is a really neat helmet. Looks like an old samurai helmet
