[QUOTE="Snaketibe, post: 474297, member: 7379"] Sorry to hear about your black blaster experience! Yes, the black one really isn't all that different from the dark blue/black one, is it? :lol: However, whatever floats your boat in this hobby, I say. Some people are desperate for a black blaster to give to their Luke Stormies, and that's absolutely fine. Some people don't mind which colour blaster they use with a figure, as long as it's the right type of blaster. Some people care about every available figure COO, whilst others couldn't care less. All those viewpoints are valid, and I won't criticize anyone for leaning one way or the other. As stated, personally I'm in the camp that prefers to use the 'correct' blaster wherever possible, so if a figure came with either the blue or non-blue version of the Imperial blaster, then I can happily put either with that figure. If however for example, the Imperial Commander only ever came with a blue blaster, then I'd like to put a blue one in his hand, even if that means buying another one to do it. With respect, saying 'any old imperial blaster they had to hand' would have been put in the blister - black or blue - simply doesn't seem to be true for at least the vast majority of IG-88 and Imperial Commander MOCs, for example, hence me asking the question. Both of those figures certainly came with blue blasters, but I've yet to see a MOC of either which has a non-blue one. I'm guessing non-blue versions do exist, but I'd like to see the proof :-) [/QUOTE]
