okay, I'm starting to assemble parts of a psuedo Solo costume, and I have a question for you blaster gurus out there.

What is the difference between a standard ANH blaster and a Greedo Killer? I'm trying to decide which one I want to look for and could use input from anyone willing to help :)

Also, where can I get each, and for about how much?

thanks

I only used one pattern in making this costume:

<img src=http://www.glue.umd.edu/~docmani/trooper/smjh2.jpg>

The vest is a military BDU shirt, heavily modified - Sleeves taken off and shoulders sewn up. Collar and front buttons taken off and sewn up. Bottom edge hemmed up. Pockets removed and shifted upwards.

The pants are Dickies pants. An extra pair was purchased, a fabric the length of the pants cut off. Stripes sewn onto it. The outer seam of each pant leg is then seam ripped and the stripe fabric is sewn between

The shirt is a buttonless collared T-shirt pattern I found and modified the collar to be higher and the V-neck to go down lower.

Any questions, feel free to shoot me email!

Those are the differences between the 2 he uses.

A picture says a thousand words.

Gavidoc,

thanks for the pic. Please forgive the obvious question from a blaster newbie, but which is which? :)

Sorry about the numerous questions. I wasn't interested in blasters until recently and usually ignore threads regarding them...until now ;)

thanks

The bottom one is the GK, the top one is the ANH blaster...
