Star Trek Classic Communicator

Bought this for my boyfriend on his birthday, he told me he always wanted one as a child. So when he unwrapped to see what it was he actually jumped like a child! It brought him back a lot of memories of wanting it. He now unfortunately doesn't leave the flat without it and when we're entertaining he always has to do a show and tell about it. It is now for me a questionable purchase but it makes him happy!

This works perfectly with just a flick of the wrist. It was a birthday gift for my husband and he was delighted.

Good product it was temperamentaI removed the plastic tab to change from "try me" mode to full functionality and it didn't work BUT By re inserting the tab partially and a bit of tweaking ... it is fine. they are good guys with excellent customer service ... it works and they are looking into it - so far so Spock

I bought this as a Christmas present and it went down a treat!!!

Works well enough rather noisy though.

Beam me up. Outstanding.

I haven't actually purchased this product and the reason is that, as with many Amazon products, the descriptions fail to give accurate or sufficient information. I note here that the product dimensions are for the book only, no mention of the replica. I bought one of these, that seems to be about the same size, but with a key-chain attached, whilst in the US, for about $2. It sounds that at least one customer has fallen for the lack of information re the size.

Looks good feels good

Tenuto conto del costo del prodotto sono soddisfatto, la plastica è buona anche se lo sportello di apertura è un po debole, buoni i suoni molto realistici e l'aspetto generale davvero ottimo. Se vi serve da appassionati per avere l'atmosfera di Star Trek a un costo contenuto con un buon prodotto, fa per voi. Se cercate un comunicatore di fattura eccellente allora dovete spendere di più

Envoi impeccable , quant au produit...... idéal pour une fan de Star Trek . Il a tout à fait sa place à côté de ma reproduction de l' Enterprise .

I bought this for my eight-year-old son, who is quite the fan of the original Star Trek series. First off, you won't find a better original series communicator for the price. My son loves it - it looks cool and worked great right out of the box. Nice loud, clear sounds. Durability? Well...one slight issue is that the gold aluminum cover narrows down to two small strips at the hinges (true to the original design). This proved to be a problem when my son repeatedly flipped the thing open somewhat forcefully (as kids would do). The cover reaches its stopping point and the inertia of the whole cover would slightly bend the connecting strips. After a while, the bending causes the cover to not want to completely seat back down in the closed position. It's a simple matter to "re-bend" things so that it closes again, but I fear too much of this might eventually cause the strips to break. A lesson to my son about his "technique" and he can now open it without stressing the lid. Also, when you open the lid, a small protrusion on the hinge assembly pushes an internal wire to make a connection which activates everything. At one point our communicator stayed activated constantly - whether open or closed (basically, it wouldn't shut off). I opened everything up and found that whoever assembled it at the factory didn't quite position the internal wire correctly. A little tweaking with a small jewler's screwdriver fixed that problem, but I must detract a star for "durability." One other small complaint from my son was that the motor which drives the moire is fairly noisy, and the moire itself is hard to see unless you're in outside in daylight. But hey, it's around 35 bucks and it really does look great (nice lights, details, etc). I feel that it's worth the money, even with the few fixes which I find are becoming more and more typical of toys like these made overseas. Do I recommend this communicator toy? Yes I do.

This collectible item is a must have for any fan of Star Trek The Original Series.

Es un jugete bastante fiel al original. Ya sea por frikada, coleccionismo o juegos. Recomendado, para cosplayers y coleccionistas. Genial
