JBar Posted April 6, 2020 Posted April 6, 2020 So in the past I've trooped with some blasters that I've made myself but I'm always worried about them getting damaged, and I don't want to stress about breaking things as I troop. I've looked through some of the vendors who make blasters but I can't find the ones that make "soft" blasters, meaning they are made out of a rubber-y material. It looks like Hyperfirm and HfX Productions are out of business? They were the two that I saw making foam/rubber blasters but it doesn't look like it anymore. Any leads would be appreciated in finding a soft/durable scout pistol or dlt-19/dlt-19x
Stroker Posted April 6, 2020 Posted April 6, 2020 DVH might do a run in the summer heres his thread. I own one of blasters,top notch work! He might chime in @Darth Voorhees given what's going on right now it might be a slow response. 1
JBar Posted April 6, 2020 Author Posted April 6, 2020 Someone else also linked me to Praetorian Blasters. It looks like they do what Hyperfirm used to do

Chopper Posted April 6, 2020 Posted April 6, 2020 The Praetorian Scout blaster is 3D scanned from a screen used blaster. You can see a review of the Praetorian vs the DarthVoorhees blaster here: 1

They’re top notch quality and when I received mine back in Dec. ran abt $110 with shipping. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1

I remember reading something about here or the RPF. 1

I remember reading something about here or the RPF. They use a similar process with the rubber covered foam and it might involve one of the hyperfirm guys? I can't recall exactly. I can say that I have their E11 and I've seen their DLT19 -- it's definitely not the same molds as the hyperfirm versions of those blasters. The Praetorian has much sharper details. 1
