Printing Details
None. This is a solid-mold plastic element without pad printing.
Variants
Known variants include Pearl Dark Gray, Metallic Silver, and Flat Silver editions found in specific themes like Agents or Nexo Knights.
Condition Notes
Look for bite marks on the handle or the barrel tip. Stress marks (whitening of plastic) frequently occur if clipped into standard LEGO clips too tightly.
Estimated Value
$0.05 - $0.25 USD. It is a bulk commodity part with very low individual collector value.
Price (New)
Usually included in sets ranging from $5.00 to $800.00; part of the standard weaponry allotment.
Compatible Sets
Included in hundreds of sets, most notably 75000, 75015, 8014, and various Star Wars Battle Packs.
Character Background
In the Star Wars universe, this mold specifically mimics the blasters used by Clone Troopers and Stormtroopers throughout the Galactic Civil War and Clone Wars.
Design Notes
Introduced to replace the 'Megaphone' style blasters of the early 2000s to provide a more realistic silhouette for the Star Wars line.
Similar Minifigures
Often paired with sw0201 (Clone Trooper), sw0188 (Stormtrooper), or sw1191 (212th Trooper).
Collectibility
Low. Collectors usually acquire these in bulk quantities for army building rather than as individual display pieces.
History
Debuted in 2007, marking a shift toward more accurate, movie-specific weapon molds for licensed themes.
Interesting Facts
The design features a 'scope' on top and a side-mounted power cell, which is an accurate abstraction of the real-world Sterling submachine gun used to make the movie props.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed in the hand of a soldier or trooper minifigure on a stand. Can also be placed in weapon racks or armories in MOCs.
Modification Potential
Extremely high for customizers; frequently painted with metallic acrylics or equipped with small translucent 'studs' to represent laser bolts.
Overall Assessment
While not a minifigure itself, this is one of the most iconic accessory parts in LEGO history, essential for any Star Wars or military builder, but holding negligible individual monetary value.
