LordoftheSWFans Posted June 29, 2021 Report Share Posted June 29, 2021 (edited) I am having a tough time finding in-stock E-11 Blasters that can be approved at a Centurion level. If any of you have any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated! Edited June 29, 2021 by LordoftheSWFans 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishgoh0nk[TK] Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 Following, I'm also in the same boat, seems like after the pandemic, DoopyDoo's is backed up and I'm looking for options. I was thinking SDS, but looking at the photos, it's not clean enough to work on. I'm thinking last ditch effort is just ordering 3d printed parts from Shapeways and constructing from scratch.

Bulldog44[TK] Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 (edited) https://www.facebook.com/Troopercoola Check out Marc/ Troopercoola. He has the JMC E-11 kit casted from sterling parts. Has all the things you need to assemble a blaster to centurion level. Marc can be contacted on this forum too if you look for troopercoola. Very nice kit. ----------- Edited September 28, 2021 by gmrhodes13 link not working removed 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 You can find a few 3D printed weapons but be very careful what you buy, there are a lot of low end versions with lots of print lines on Esty You can find some nice 3D printed ones here Hellhounds were supply rubber versions but I believe has gone quite due to some personal issues, you could contact via Facebook Field Marshal was producing all metal kits, higher on price but very accurate.

justjoseph63[Staff] Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 As Glen mentioned, the Questdesign does need the counter moved (not that difficult) but it is actually a really nice blaster overall. Coming from Canada the shipping may be a bit high, but I've seen these up close and they are well worth the price. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall it’s a very nice resin E11. There are a few little things I’d like to change but that’s what modifications are for. Lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am looking to purchase one of his myself, in the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d really prefer to buy something whole and make mods to it, so I’m leaning towards getting it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkI agree. That’s why I went with it. And short of actual authentic parts, I can use better quality replicas like the ones from Christopher Fieldmarshal at BlasterFactory. I actually have a Fieldmarshal E11 with a real magazine and a real Hengstler. What I’ll probably do is take the M38 replica off that and put it on the Quest when I get a real M38The one on the Quest isn’t that great. The writing on the one end is barely legible. I’ll do my best to send plenty of pictures later so you can judge for yourself. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 In looking at the above photos of the kit, I can't help but wondering where are the T-tracks? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motogpnut Posted July 1, 2021 Report Share Posted July 1, 2021 Here are some picture of the Quest Design E11 as promised. I can always add more if anyone would like another angle. In the last two I laid the Fieldmarshal BlasterFactory E11 next to it for size reference. I think it’s a very well done resin E11. Probably one of the best I’ve seen but there are some issues. One thing I was disappointed by was the lack of writing on the M38. Something I was very much looking forward to whiting out. I also bought an upgrade kit from Tino, that has a lot of metal parts and screws you can add to an resin E11 to make it more realistic. I still have yet to add those pieces. And like Joe said, the Hengstler does need to be raised up a bit. But overall, it’s honestly pretty well done. Very clean seams, and overall very clean piece. I definitely got my money’s worth. It was a good purchase, in my humble opinion 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with some of the prices that are being asked for the rubber ones.They gave me updates as to when the blaster would be ready, when it was packaged and then when it was shipped. Very nice people. I would trust a rubber blaster better for trooping. A little less weight and you don’t have to worry about dropping and breaking it. I’ve heard that can happen with the little kids pretty often. Lol. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tino's E-11 upgrade kits are incredible, and I wouldn't do a build without one! They definitely add the level of authenticity that us OCD types look for, lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
