Hi,
New to the forum but have been watching and reading with great interest for some time now.

I´m searching for a toy plastic BR blaster, I already have the normal size version with the lights and sounds but I´ve seen a snub nose version on here and a few other places, this is the version I´m looking for.

I regulary search Ebay but with no luck.

This is the vesrion I´m looking for from MYBLADERUNNER blog.
http://www.mybladerunner.com/tag/hero/

Can anyone help or would anyone like to sell, trade or swap one ?

If I could get a link to a supplier or Ebay seller I´d be interested in buying a few.

Ready to buy and I also have a couple of resin blasters I´d be happy to trade with.

Many thanks.

Thanks Andy.

The guy that posted a video clip on Youtube bought his in Dubia, shame he didn´t buy a box load.

The search goes on.

I do have a load of the full size version if anyone is looking, NIB but I also paint them up and alter a few bits to resemble the real one.

Hi Outlaw and Andy,

I picked one of those silver stomper blasters up at a market here in Australia at the weekend, think they had more. I got it as I can't get the full size through customs, so had been checking toy shops etc. I would love to trade for full size if we can figure out how to get it past customs.

I managed to get some more snub nose toy blasters today, quite hard as the old lady running the place did not speak english and could only give me prices. Finally got through to her.

I also found another version that is slightly longer that has a clear faceted sphere in the centre that has multiple lights.

Wow, Those are very cool. Removable grips even. The Styer like medallion on the grips is something I have only seen here before by one of our own doing a custom. Makes me wonder a bit? Wink It also seems to be in style with the Hartford snub, at least the grips. It would be great for a Cosplay/LARPer for sure. Any pictures of the packaging? The packaging is part of the appeal of these guys for sure. The other one is over the top fugly, but that as a collector of vintage space toys, has it's own appeal to me too.

Thanks Joberg, it took a few times to get the light to show properly.

I will start my conversions this weekend and will post shots.

These are great.

The big versions are a lot of fun too and a good quality toy.

I´ve modified a few of these and plan on doing the same to the snub version when they arrive. Pics of both styles will follow.

Well done and thanks to amfx74.

Hi OUTLAW,

The full size blasters arrived today, they look great. Amazed by the addition of a fairly powerful laser, something that would not be allowed here in NSW.

Will have fun converting one of them, A great addition to the snub nose.

Hope you get yours soon
