How about the greeblies on ESB and ROTJ E-11's? There are resin ones floating around but metal would be nice.

How about the greeblies on ESB and ROTJ E-11's? There are resin ones floating around but metal would be nice.
...What about a run of machined hammers and triggers for a Mauser that are accurate in shape and dimensions that could be machined for either a Denix or an MGC? The main reason that I state this is because the trigger and hammer on a Denix are pretty fugly, and though they can both be made better, they'll never be perfect. As for the MGC, the trigger pin has always stuck out for me, and the hammer, while close, is slightly off too.
Also, for my second MGC, I was in the process of sanding the hammer down, but I accidently removed a little too much material in one spot, and now it looks wrong, so I'm in need a new one.
As far as the droid callers go I really want to do that run but I need an original Kobold to measure,
I don't want to measure from a casting because I don't know what kind of shrinkage it had and I want it as accurate as possible,
I will offer a DL44 kit to trade for a Kobold if anyone is interested........
That might work. On the other hand, the value of a Kobold is skyrocketing. I just watched one today sell for over $260 and it wasn't even the correct version. I think you might get more takers if you make some sort of offer to borrow a correct kobold rather than ask them to part with it..
Here are some info pages and original item photo galleries for droid callers on partsofstarwars.com:

Han ANH: http://www.partsofsw.com/handcanh.htm
Han ESB: http://www.partsofsw.com/handcej.htm
Han ROTJ: http://www.partsofsw.com/handcrotj.htm
I've asked RPF member lonepigeon of partsofstarwars to chime in here too.
Resin Han replicas seem fairly available. A run of Luke ANH -style would be pretty cool!

Just sent you a PM.Actually I think you are right, I will trade a DL44 kit or machined droid caller to just borrow a kobold for a few days so I can measure it.
(let's see if that works.....)
I have some resin greeblies for both E-11's but unfortunately these aren't dead accurate, top grey ROTJ, bottom white ESB.
