hestonkent Posted August 27, 2016 Report Posted August 27, 2016 (edited) The last F-11D run I did was pretty insane, I shipped about 3x the amount of blasters which I had originally expected to be the upper limit. By far the biggest complaint was the wait/lead time on the blasters. I believe to date I might actually be the only seller to ever deliver 100% on an F-11D run here... kind of wild. Well I have ramped up my production like crazy and have put together a nice batch of 15 blasters for y'all. I have five of each different variation - Non stock version, Permanent/fixed stock version, Swappable stock version. This is mostly a test run as I'm curious as to which variation is in higher demand, so I'll know where to focus my efforts. Just to be clear the first 5 blasters of each variation will have NO LEAD TIME and will ship next business day with USPS Priority Mail. After the blasters are sold out, orders will go back into pre-order mode and there will be a quicker 2-4 week lead time for the first 15-20 orders after that. I have scaled my production capacity quite a bit so the 2-4 week lead time is a far cry from the original 8-12 week lead time on the first run I did. I should also mention that I have set the blasters stock counts to reflect the in-stock count on the item pages. So however many are left in stock on the page are however many are left in stock and get the next business day shipping. No stock Version -------------( $174.99 ) Fixed Stock Version - -----------( $199.99 ) Swappable Stock Version (with alternate end cap) -------------( $214.99 ) I made some improvements to this version over the prior runs. The blasters now feature the faux red LEDs (not actual LEDs, they're stickers) in their appropriate places. I thought this was a great touch to one that I tested it with and have decided to include it in all future orders. Also one of the biggest complaints as well was with the swappable stock version, many customers reported that their stocks wouldn't be seated properly in the rear of the blaster and wiggle loose too easily. I have since fixed this issue with all these blasters and all future orders. I will only ship to the United States directly, sorry everyone else. If you are outside of the US and are interested in buying one of my blasters, you can use a shipping forwarding service but keep in mind that I am not responsible if the blaster is damaged or seized during transit from the shipping forwarder to your location. Please know your local laws regarding props before attempting to do this. Here's some pictures of the batch all lined up nice and pretty together: http://i.imgur.com/NG7Zjr9l.jpg http://i.imgur.com/LNxaXNsl.jpg Also if you have any questions about my business, feel free to check out my etsy store reviews:-------------- And if you have already placed an order with me for a blaster that's open right now either on etsy or my site, it will be shipping on Monday.

PGHtrooper21 Posted August 28, 2016 Report Posted August 28, 2016 How is he duarbility of the blasters? Will they take a drop. bump, etc..? Andy Quote
hestonkent Posted August 28, 2016 Author Report Posted August 28, 2016 I haven't exactly drop tested the blasters but I would never recommend doing so if you can help it. A bump is a broad term but i'm sure it'd be fine in most cases. Quote

Cookie Nomster Posted September 1, 2016 Report Posted September 1, 2016 (edited) Are these the 501st version? Answered my own question, sorry! Edited September 1, 2016 by Cookie Nomster Quote
Cookie Nomster Posted September 1, 2016 Report Posted September 1, 2016 heston - do any of these include the electronics in them (lights basically)? Quote
hestonkent Posted September 1, 2016 Author Report Posted September 1, 2016 heston - do any of these include the electronics in them (lights basically)? They do not, these blasters in particular just feature the faux red lights on the side which are merely stickers meant to look the part. Quote

Anzo[TK] Posted September 6, 2016 Report Posted September 6, 2016 Looks like you aren't having a problem moving them but I just wanted to jump in a attest to their quality for anyone on the fence. Great looking blaster! 2 Quote
