Are you going for Holster and Blaster too?

We had not thought about that really. Perhaps down the road on that one but for getting it done just stuck to the original. Not sure how the holster and such would work with the robes really.

Get A Hasbro DH-17 Blaster , they're quite light :)

The holster would more than likely be leather, but would need to match the inner robes. Although I'm not sure.

I'm getting one for my ROTS guard, so i 'll let you know how I do it :)

Nice! Yeah I actually have one of the toy blasters just would have to get the kit to make it proper and paint it. Will look forward to seeing how you work it too. Might be something I consider doing and adding honestly.

Thanks! Yeah it was awesome to get the approval and then be trooping today?! So awesome! Just had so much fun and the garrison was fantastic in being so welcoming too. Made it really easy to come in and be part of it all.
