Here you have a little guidance for the E-11 and DC-15 blaster with fully extended stock.

You need:
super glue
cutter knife
wire (one with a diameter of 0,5mm and one with a diameter of 1mm)
paints: black and grey (for a drybrush)
and of course the weapons

production steps:
1.) at first cut of the molded stock
2.)you need three wire pieces and the small plastic part from the molded stock
3.)glue the wire pieces on the weapon
4.)I also made a new sight with the thin wire
5.)at last paint the weapon and make a drybrush

I also made a YouTube video:

That wouldn't be that hard to make it foldable, using a pin-vice and some thin guage craft wire. It would be delicate though.
