Stormtrooper E-11 Resin Kit Questions

[xingshen]

Howdy all!

I was looking around eBay and found this kit:

Star Wars Stormtrooper E-11 Resin Prop Model Kit - eBay (item 140425007689 end time Jul-14-10 21:29:38 PDT)

Just wondering if anybody has worked on one of these before. Looks to be fairly detailed. I haven't worked with resin yet but have read up on it. Looking for a blaster project and thought this might be fun. Any feedback is appreciated.

Thanks!

See the forum search up top right? Plug in that Ebay user's handle 'coolmodels' it will tell you everything you need to know, and if it's not clear enough, to make it short and simple, BAD NEWS!

I don't know anything about that one, but I used the Doopydoos kit with no issues on my E-11.

Thanks for the heads up.
I'll steer clear of this.

I don't know anything about that one, but I used the Doopydoos kit with no issues on my E-11.

Was that the mod kit for a Hasbro?

Got any pics?

Doopydoos has a mod kit for the Hasbro, a kit for a PVC pipe build, and a completed blaster. I didn't use all of the parts for mine, but here's a pre-painted pic of the kit applied to the Habro.

And an in process paint job:

I didn't use the Hengstler counter because I didn't like the look of it on the speaker box. Otherwise, the kit was a great fit onto the Hasbro. I'd like to attempt the PVC build next.

Very nice!

Does the kit allow the stock to fold?

 

[Junk Pilot]

No it doesn't. The stock in non-functioning and can only be made in the "stowed" position.

I just finished my Doopy Doos MK2 conversion of my Hasbro E-11 Stormtrooper Blaster. I picked one up from Target for $17.99.

I decided to leave off the Counter Box and the Magazine Cylinders due to the fact that they are already on the Hasbro version. It just seemed to crowded with them on it. Next time I may try and remove them so that I can use the Doopy Doos versions.

I left the LED in the barrel.

Used Krylon flat black spray paint. I love the look. Will be putting a clear coat on it. This was so easy, just time consuming. Took me 2 days.

Best,

Nice! The paint job looks great :thumbsup

I left the LED in mine as well, but put a lens cap over it to disperse the light a bit and to keep the LED in place when I recessed it into the barrel.

You can order them straight from Doopydoos.
