IF you see any molded in GREY plastic... REPRO! although i have been passed off with one before, which had been painted black...

if anyone wants to add any different imperial blasters PM me some good macro pics (600 pixels across) and i will update this list... if you cant be assed to crop and resize i dont mind doing them either...

Good bit of research Gustie. I have to admit I generally don't look too closely other to confirm that they are genuine but its amazing to see there are so many differences 8)

hey Todd

thanks for sending that metal blaster!

is it lead???

ill add it here soon

ta mate

It's lead. These were made in the late 80's, Prior to the plastic repros of the 90's. They are hard to find as far as repros go.
