Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Small Technical Issue, But Great Otherwise
I'll start with the phaser...amazing. I've never seen a more complex toy, every switch, dial, button, etc., does something different. I don't think you can find a more accurately detailed TOS phaser anywhere.

Now the Communicator: judging from all the other great reviews, I just got a dud. Everything basically works right except sometimes when you close it; it stays on. Sometimes I close, it turns off, I set it down, then 5 mins. later it turns back on lol. I can spend 5 mins. just trying ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Phaser good, communicator not quite
First the good. The phaser is very good. You have the option of using it as a Type I (just using the smaller part) or Type II (ie. docking it into the pistol part and using both). Now the bad news. The Type I doesn't dock into the pistol very well at all. This affects the "overload" function. Only through pressing down on it by hand or somehow wedging the phaser down will you get the overload to work. It's cheaply built but it doesn't mean it's not fun. The communicator however is just bad all around. ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Star Trek 2-pack
While a big fan of Star Trek, I would not be considered a "Trekkie". However, the "replica" items are fine for my taste. They are only for display use and therefore are just fine. A more fanatical fan would probably be disappointed in the quality and design. But for the "average" fan, they are acceptable. Probably a little over-priced for the average fan.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Too shoddy for replica, too dear for toy
I must say this is a disappointment, mainly due to the quality. The communicator in particular looks rather poor. The paint job is sloppy, with some of the silver paint spilling off of the trim, or not covering the trim completely, making the new item look worn. The antenna has a frame with the mesh "cage" soldered at a few points, and where it is not soldered it does not quite meet the frame, leaving rough looking gaps. It does not fit into the casing well and won't close completely. Though only ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - great nestalgic toy
Of course if these two toys where metal that would be an improvement but for the purpose of being able to have a great replica of a childhood fantasy in your hand, this product is good. A heavier, more durrable plastic would be an improvement. The sound effects are cool. The 'hailing' setting on the comunicator is great. The phaser has an over load build up with explosion setting, straight out of the original TV show.
I always wanted these toys as a kid growing up in the late 70's but to poor to ... Read More
