This is the Master Replicas Stormtrooper blaster. Holy cow is this thing cool. Out of all the props I wanted as a kid, the big three were Luke's lightsaber, Han's blaster, and a Stormtrooper blaster. I now have really high quality replicas of all three of these props. The trooper blaster was definately worth the wait. The first thing I noticed as I pulled it out of the box was that it was one heavy mofo. Due to trade restrictions in China, the trigger does not move. A little weird, but doesn't really detract much overall, as I don't really plan on pulling the trigger anyway. As with all MR products, I believe there is some controversy surrounding this piece. It doesn't have the Hengslter counter box, cylinders, or coils that are considered hallmarks of the trooper blaster. I believe I read somewhere that this blaster is accurate to the one that Luke carried... in some scenes. No skin off my back, as I am not a trooper nut, nor am I an officaionado of this piece. I think it's great.
