Description

This is an improved version of my Blaster Rifle Mk.II.  It's full scale and has working light & sound.  Like the Mk.II, this is not an exact replica of the on-screen props.  However, it is closer in appearance to the movie props than the Mk.II was and features - additional side vents (20), an improved emitter tip, a more detailed rear section, more accurately spaced grips. This prop is full-scale and quite hefty. I scratch-built this prop using polycarbonate pipe (the main body tube), and sheet styrene for the grips and detailing bands.  For more of my work, check out my website - To see the lighting functions of the Mk.III 'in action', check my YouTube video.
