 |
|
Hey Everyone
I wasn't sure whether this was right place for this post, so if the mods want to move it, please do.
Anyhoo - I thought some of you might be interested in this.
I put together a stormtrooper costume earlier this year, and during that time I converted a hasbro E11 for trooping.
I made mine a little different by adding a back lit scope - and in order to achieve the effect I recreated the targeting reticule in illustrator and printed it onto acetate.
---
I had loads of them left over from printing, and figured that there may be others who might want to do the same to their blasters, so I've put them up on ebay

Cheers Joberg
It's quite exciting, I've always wanted to find a niche on ebay, and I think I've found my calling.
I've sold 5 of the reticules so far, and if I can sell them all, I might consider putting together a full back lighting kit for the hasbro blaster.
IE:
Wire
LED
Reticule
Filter sheet
Scope Cap & Lens
Switch
+ Full instructions for the install
----
My brain has been going into overdrive trying to think of other tiny little prop detailing kits that haven't been done before  |
