5.0 out of 5 stars The NEW Star Trek Phaser! Wow!, April 21, 2009

This review is from: Star Trek - Starfleet Phaser (Toy)

Star Trek is back and even stronger in 2009. When it comes to toys - usually the best ones are in the hundreds of dollars and you hate to touch because of their price - however - Playmates is doing it right!
This PHASER has Detail, quality and Functionality. It is based on the new Star Trek film - and it is fun.
The PHASER is realistic looking with a silver casing. It has a light and sound effect of "activation or charging". This gives the users the illusion of 'control'.
The best part is the PHASE BARRELL. One side has lights and sounds for Dematerializing (RED) and another series of sounds and lights for the Stun (Blue)setting. It has a flip control too - to quickly go from one setting to the other.
Durability: I can see really younger kids might "over-flip" the PHASE BARRELL to hard. But if you use it as if it were real - no problem.
Educational Value; Not really - but it's great for playing futuristic cowboys-and-indians! (If anyone remembers those!)
I'm sure the cast and crew of the new movie had fun with the real props, but Playmates allows us to have our own fun too!
And at their price - you can't go wrong! Very well made.

This review is from: Star Trek - Starfleet Phaser (Toy)

It was just what my son (12) wanted since he likes Star Trek. It has a cool "flip" feature which makes it a clever toy. plastic, but it looks nice and is durable enough for "shooting" around corners and it lights up. He and his friends/younger siblings enjoy it whether or not they're into Star Trek. We ordered 2 and they arrived on time in pristine packages.

I've just received this Playmates Phaser "prop" that was seen in the new Abrams Star Trek movie. No pun intended, all I can say is I'm stunned by it! I didn't like it at first, but when I saw it in action in the movie, I wanted to get it straight away! Its mostly chromed and the features of the phaser is really fun! There is an on/off switch at the bottom. And on top, there is some sort of volume like dial that lets you power the phaser up. And the best feature of all is the flipping barrels from stun to vaporize mode just like it does in the movie!!! I'm having fun with this phaser and its not only for kids, I would recommend this to all Star Trek fans of all ages. The only downside of the phaser is the visible screws on the other side. If only Playmates would have covered it up.

Nonetheless, this phaser prop is something that adults like me can display proudly at home and say that this was the phaser Kirk and Spock used when they beamed aboard the Narada in the recent Star Trek movie!!! Excellent stuff!!!
