Re: Ep 7 Stormtrooper New Blaster Build (Pic Heavy)
Weapons (blasters) are never required for 501st approval. However if you have one it should match the standards. Keep in mind that the CRL for the OT stormtroopers is pretty lax and I would assume that the TFA troopers will be similar. The hasbro painted correctly will "likely" be the base approval, as long as it's close enough to the original.
That's assuming they actually did that on the screen used prop. While I personally like the idea and would go for that myself if that's not the way it is on the actual prop then it might make not 501st approved, not that I give 2 hoots about 501st approval but that certainly needs to be a consideration. Besides, wouldn't that be creating an idealized stock and don't people here on the RPF thats the idealizing of Star Wars props & costumes as heresy? But like I said earlier, I personally like the idea of replacing the ATI with the new Imperial symbol and think that's it's a great idea.
