LONG-LOST STAR TREK TOS HERO PHASER AND COMMUNICATOR COMES OUT FOR SOME ACTION – PART 2 / THE PHASER 1

This is a follow-up to my intro video about the amazing Hero Phaser and Communicator coming up for auction at Julien's this fall. Star Trek prop fans everywhere will be understandably skeptical about these pieces so to address that issue I'll be posting reference photos and videos along with the reasoning used to make our final conclusions. Let's go!

Please note that all photos are from Julien's Auctions and used with permission.

Let's start at the top. Literally. The Phaser 1 snaps nicely into its cradle. The side still deploys nicely. But the most amazing thing is that the interior shows this to be a perfect match for the phaser shown in The Making of Star Trek from 1968. That's an astounding fact. 





As you can see, every seeable nuance is repeated perfectly in this piece. There can be no doubt that they are a match. Here's how the site still functions:


Astounding thing, isn't it? But we've only just begun. More to come soon!
