Best blaster choice to go with?

[TheLoneRanger[501st]]

Good evening all, that silly Ranger is back with another newbie question for you all to shoot down with your blasters.

kidding.

I'm actually just curious where would be a good start to go with for my blaster while I wait for my armor. I've seen many threads about converting Hasbros, the Doopykit, making your own out of PVC... The possibilities are endless. What would you all recommend for a starter like me? I'm no stranger to making stuff.

I've been building with Legos since I was 3.

Any help or tips are appreciated!

I jumped right into the doopy's back when I did my first E-11. It's great for accuracy at any level. You can build it as is or make it look like a real sterling. Plenty of build threads here to go off of. Just overall a better look than the Hasbro conversion. I built my first with no experience. Just motivation and this community.

I bought a doopy do when I first got in, built it and loved how it came out. Brought it to my first troop (a Boy Scout dinner) and was suggested I don't hand it to anyone cause if they drop it, it'll shatter. Bought a Hyperfirm the next day and haven't looked back.

Hyperfirm - always!

I agree, the HFX Hyperfirm from Lewis...all the way!

Thanks for the replies, guys. Do the Hyperfirm ANH blasters double up as ESB blasters as well?

Update: I went with a Hyperfirm blaster.

Where are you able to purchase a hyperfirm, and how much would it cost me?
