Really old news. That's from all the way back at ComicCon SD.

Also... The SW logo on the side is "screen accurate"?.?. :lol Or the trigger to cock it to shoot nerf darts... neat and great that they're making these toys, but not what you think/stated.

Dohhhhhhhh just realised that they are bloody toys.

ill head back to the off topic section for the most embarassing posts :$

Was covered here. Seems some locales were not happy with the 'realistic' color scheme, and that has since changed. Also the clone blaster is undersized for trooping, according to rumors.

We're not yet entirely sure the DH-17 is fullscale, either. It would be a shame if its Singlepoint scope was undersized. I was gonna cannibalize one or two of those.

[micdavis]

Just snagged one of these from Wal-Mart...color scheme looks like baby hurl, but I've got masking tape and a rattlecan that's gonna fix this up ASAP. Pics if you want em.

I will have to hunt one down this weekend.
Nothing I like more then turning a candy colored toy into a nice wall prop.
I had no idea these were in stores already, thanks for the heads-up.

I love the fact that these SW blasters are Nerf Tech guns and I'm sure Lucas does too...it continues to bridge the younger generations with the SW franchise.

Actually, the designers at Nerf have been putting out some really interesting designs lately. Many of the custom-made blasters I've seen lately are using Nerf guns as their base platform...that's a good compliment to the original Nerf designers.

Oh sweet. Time to make a run to the stores.

Any pics of one painted yet? I have some flat black that just may need to be used up on one of these puppies.

How does it compare size wise to the MR Rebel Blaster?

Argh...it's SXSW week here in Austin so it's a nightmare to go anywhere...anybody know if the RFT blaster is the right size, or more importantly to me, the replica singlepoint?

 

[Treadwell]

a post on asap says:

"I just picked this up. SIZE: 15&1/2" long. This makes it two-and-a-half inches shorter just than the "reel" thing. I can live with that. Diameter is just shy of inch-and-a-half."

I took a quick look at both today in Wally World. I am by no means an expert but I'm willing to bet they are too small. The rebel is about as small as the previous Hasbro blasters. The Clone... really obviously small.

Again I'm no expert, but the orange tip was missing from the scope but otherwise it looked okay. Not nearly as lame as the other blasters. I think with a paint job the rebel one will be a good trooping blaster.
