[Disney Parks E-11 Blaster Review and Build!]

I just saw that these have already gone up to 50 dollars on ebay, as apparently the stormtrooper E-11 is rarest as it was the last released and first to be pulled. The boba fett blaster is the most common, so if you see an E-11, swoop on it!

i just picked one up on ebay yesterday for 27.. now, that being said.. who knows what i'll actually GET in the mail  

[Disney Parks E-11 Blaster Review and Build!]

This is the new E-11 Blaster toy for Sale at Disney Parks. They are available at gift shops in the Parks themselves, the main one in Downtown Disney, and are now starting to pop up on Ebay. Overall, the dimensions are much better than the Hasbro one, and feature good LED's and sounds. Before I take it apart and start to paint, I use a jeweler's saw to cut off the barrel endcap, sand it down, and sand off any logos.

 

 

The blaster is surprisingly easy to disassemble. This is necessary for painting because of the clear plastic guards where the light shows through. The main body is held together by 8 screws. Unlike the temperamental Nerf DH-17, there is no glue to contend with. The rear tube speaker end cap, scope, top rail, and rear sight are all just held in place. Did Disney know I wanted to repaint this thing?

 

Simply set trigger, easy to remove, simple wiring set up for your modders out there!

 

Here is the removable top rail and clear plastic light channel guard. All the fins are separate parts, a nice detail, but only the center seam one comes out easily. The LED's are held in place in the channel by a single screw.

 

Here is the other side, even simpler.

As of a few minutes ago you can still get this from ebay for about $27  (we'll see what i actually get )   I will definitely try this when it comes in.. Thanks 

[Forgive me if this boot question has already been answered.]

I'm trying to put together my first level 1 basic bridge crew uniform.   I'm having issues finding the proper boots with a wide calf.   i would need a 19 - 20" circumference on the shaft.     The widest I've found is 16.5" and those are on boots that i'd have to cut the buckle off.
