Jawa Blaster.....fake or real?

[obiwannacollect]

Hi, can i have an opinion of this please, ive crossed referenced it with all the weapon guides but im not convinced.

 

[walkie]

my monies on fake

 

[obiwannacollect]

Thanks for the opinion, anybody else with any thoughts? And can I ask why you think so?

Have you tried to put it in a cup of water a pushed it down to the bottom ?

If it stay down there then I would say repro. If it float then I would say original.

I have never seen a repro jawa blaster that floats, but they make them better and better and there could be one that I do not know about.

looks like repro2: http://www.imperialgunnery.com/jawablaster.htm
from memory it floats

many thanks guy's for your input, im confident what we have here is a repro that passes both the drop and float tests, it will be winging its way to someone who will be able to confirm one way or another once its in his hands.

 

[Pomse2001]

Damn, they just make them better and better, I hate repro :evil:

Thanks james for the help

off ebay was it?
can you get a closer macro shot! the texture looks good in the picture, it has to be in my hands too tell though. if its passed the drop test and float test then id say its good, but repros are getting alot better you never know

I have the same blaster- it does pass the float & drop test. No MOC example has ever been found & it is considered fake

I hope you are right, so we still can use the drop and float test on the jawa blasters.

faley fake! i beleive if the groove on one side should not go all the way and should fade out! if that makes sense! :wink:

 

[obiwannacollect]

thanks crazy, it most certainly makes sense about the groove but allow me to drag the subject on a little more, what about this blaster currently on ebay?

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/330839198494?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

isnt this the same as the repro in the below link?

^^ need an ebay pic of the other side

 

[obiwannacollect]

what about this one? i know its looks alot like the repro one pictured below but its not as "rough" cut. Has passed drop and float test

 

[x-pack]

Is that serious? It looks like someone has chewed a Black Jack into the shape of a Jawa Blaster. :lol:

 

[Pomse2001]

Yes it looks like the repro, great to know that it has passed drop and float test.

I did not know that one passed it.

So there's repros that pass the float test :shock: wtf I didn't know that. I tested all my weapons
and they all passed. So much for that :evil:

Hi June, you can still use the float test, many weapons work with that test, but do not only use that test. Look also at the weapon or the weapons that can be tricky.
