Deep Dive: The Han Solo Blaster

  • Summary

  • The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of is back with its second deep dive of the season, this one covering one of David's and Ryan's favorite movie weapons of all time: the Han Solo blaster. To fill in all the greeblies and nerdy details, the guys are joined by DL-44 expert, master builder, and gunsmith Scott Juarez from the RPF and the Star Wars fan community. They cover everything from the (in)famous A New Hope blaster to the "Greedo killer" to the MGC blasters of Empire to the stunts with a fascinating hero lineage to David's own "Stembridge blaster" and that weird hero from Jedi. In and amongst it all, the guys discuss the purported "only fully intact [Han Solo] blaster from the original film" recently offered for public sale... and why, maybe, it is no longer either a purported hero or offered for sale.
