This review is from: Star Trek Ii: The Wrath of Khan Phaser Replica (Toy)
After the disappointment that was the Playmates Toys ST II TWOK Phaser released in 1996, Art Asylum / Diamond Select has FINALLY gotten it right this time!!
I have been waiting for an accurate, low-cost TWOK Phaser for a long time now, and was excited to hear last year that Art Asylum AKA Diamond Select would be continuing the success of the Original Series Classic Phaser "Trek Tek" series, with this amazing work of electronic engineering! The Phaser is full of electronic lights and authentic sound effects with 6 unique settings and LED light sequences: * Safety Mode - Phaser is locked and cannot be operated without knowing the unlock code. * LOW STUN/HEAT * STUN * KILL * DISINTEGRATE * OVERLOAD And each setting has an included authentic sound effect along with the light effects in unison. When you 'fire" the Phaser, the Dilithium Crystal flickers briefly at the same time! And like the Original Series Phaser, this Phaser also separates from the main Phaser body so you have a Type I Phaser that works independently from the main Type II Phaser body. And when you reattach the Type I to the Type II main body; a Phaser "Charge Up" sound will be heard. 11 LED lights total, including an illuminated Dilithium Crystal Chamber, behind the Type I control panel! The Playmates version only had 4 LEDs and none in the clear dilithium crystal. If you're a fan of one of the best Trek films, then I highly recommend this Phaser Replica, as it is well worth the money, and for only $20, why buy it anywhere else??

The ST2 phaser is a very good replica/prop with two very authentic sound effects which are quite similar to those featured in the movie. My only hangup is that there are actually four sounds, and two of the four are made up/invented sounds we never heard and just sound terrible - I'd have been happy with just stun and kill since the others seem like fake variants to fill up the features list. I am also unsure why the "self destruct" effect features a transporter sound. The phaser 1 on this is also a bit on the awkward side - phaser 1 from the TOS phaser is much more sleek and stylish - I cannot imagine the phaser 1 on this to be carried on a belt - it just looks terrible. But once hooked up the pistol, the entire unit looks wonderful. I especially like the "safety" feature and the large button to turn on the unit.

Okay, I've had three different "representations" of the TMP/TWOK phaser over the years. I had the "phaser battle" set (from South Bend toys) which came out at the time of TMP, which were really pretty cool (basically "laser tag" but the sensor and emitter were both in the "phaser" - see info here: [...]), and later on the Playmates version (which was also OK). But this is by far the best I've seen. By the way, I've picked up both the TMP and TWOK versions... they're the same in terms of inner workings, but are cosmetically different (colored lights for TMP versus white lights for TWOK, silver for TWOK versus grey for TMP, etc).
As far as the TMP/TWOK phaser design goes, this is the definitive version as far as I'm concerned, and you can't go wrong buying either version (though I have to say, I like the TMP version better!)
