Han Solo Blaster EPV LE from: Master Replicas Across the frozen plains of Hoth, glides a darkly ominous Probe Droid,
engaged in a deadly game of hide and seek. Upon discovery, it opens
fire with a volley of laser blasts. Coming under returning fire, it
activates a self-destruct mechanism and explodes in a conflagration of
metal and flame. A certain space pirate lowers his BlasTech DL-44 heavy
blaster and reports back to base that it's a good bet the Empire knows
where the Rebels are... So returns Han Solo to the fighting fray in
Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back, with not only his
companion Chewbacca, but also a slightly different version of his
signature blaster at his side. The original Han Solo blaster prop used
in Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, had been returned to the prop
rental company upon completion of filming. Therefore, the prop
department had to recreate this iconic weapon for the sequel. This time
out they chose a Japanese replica of an antique German Broomhandle
Mauser pistol as the base for Hans blaster. Other changes included a
different scope mount bracket on the side that now held a M19 azimuth
sight, instead of the earlier vintage sniper scope. Similarly, the fire
extinguisher nozzle that formed the muzzle of the original was replaced
with a specifically- machined aluminum component that closely
approximated what had been seen previously.
