All those moving parts make me want to toss a cup of sand into your Blaster.

Have fun unfolding it after I emptied that cup of sand into all the fragile moving parts!

I think I was first with pouring that cup of sand! /offtopic

Seriously though, while you can create cute drawings, the idea of a foldable Blaster which serves as a platform on which you attach further parts to create new weapons, sounds like a case of complete failure, and I am not even coming close to reality here. I mean, ever heard of structural integrety? I think you haven't, since that's just about exactly what is missing from your drawings. It looks too fragile to be of any use besides putting it on display.

Apart from the fact that its foldable, of course. Keep on drawing!

I am aware of what you're saying lava. It's the very reason why the good ol' AK47 has been so popular for so long. Just bear in mind that in the lovely world of fiction that is tremulous, it's what looks good that counts. Realism can eat my foot!

If the future can produce weapons like this, I demand my unit to be outfitted with turds that fire lazers.

A turd was one of the first things that came to mind when trying to envision using such a weapon system on the battlefield.

what is frightening you is something what the armory does in its inside.
during the game, the only transformable episode is when you set the blaster's firing head free.
this happens sometimes with failures like in the case of the flamer and the old buggy lucifer cannon, but otherwise works flawlessly ^^
during the game, you will always have something attached on the flamer so it will only look like the foredrawn one when you sell the addons and forget to buy new one. so it should definitely look like more skinny than the currently used one. especially that it only does minor damage.

however, i can perfectly understand your affection towards the old concept, i love that too.

I love the way it looks, and I love the way it folds... However I have to agree with Lava that it is just not the best idea to use it as the base platform for all guns... Not from the realism point of view since we can throw it out and just use the rule of cool here but from the uncanny feeling of attaching something to the blaster to make it fire PROJECTILES? SHOTGUN SHELLS? Blaster as the main energy emitter for all guns with, let's say, add-ons to make it into a luci, md, or lasgun or pulse rifle is one thing but to make it into a chaingun or a ckit? It's just not fitting for me... However if you drop the add-on thing and forget about what you saw in SW:Republic Commando then you can think Mass Effect and go for every weapon to be foldable, to make it into a compact form for the armoury...

By the way: the armoury could be some equipment teleport not just a big locker...

ed.: If you really want to keep something common in all guns, like maybe this is where the add-on idea was originally coming from, you can make the trigger and fire control mechanisms common in all guns and the barrel and ammo packs differ in all of them with this trigger part folding into them when you put it away...

um... well in reality you can teliport, it can possibly be done by intanglement (when one atom does somthing the other atom does the same thing at the same time) esentully you can make a door open here and the exit to that door somewere else

Nope you're way wrong.
Quantum entanglement is where changing the state of one atom effects the other, over great distance (Or as far as you can move an atom without losing it).  Nothing to do with teleportation.
(Quantum teleportation also has nothing to do with this kind of teleportation).

OK david that's exactly what i was saying in simpleton terms and YOU CAN theoretical use it to teleport, i also have no idea what quantum teleportaion is (well very little worm holes and such) but you can use entanglement to do so, look it up, also when I'm really close don't exaggerate and say I'm "way wrong" because your flaming. What i said is how i needed to state it for this and yes entanglement can make the atom do the same exact thing through future advancements.

also remember were i come from is differant from were you come from and common terminology is defferant, try not to be racist next time

OK now your tern to be verbally rightend, i spoke from experience and due to your ignorance you chose to try to make it a fight, back in my day you would get two weeks ban for that :) you kids have it good

I never referred (or even hinted) to anything remotely race-related. You fail again.

Now then, let's all stop being idiots and do something useful.

Quantum Entanglement is about transfer of information, while Quantum Teleportation is primary about the teleportation of matter (which of course can be seen as some form of information too)

hey would you walking be considered telepotation or no? because if it isn't then what i was talking about may not technically be teleportation, maybe you would just have to get through one door out the other, or you could clone some one some were else through this. ( just saw  a thing on the science channel and i know a few physicists
