35. An early copycat pioneer Phaser. Although similar to the piece in photos 34 & 36, this was actually first on the scene, at least around the East coast, and sold by mail for about $40.00. This company also produced a communicator (see photos 25 & 13 in 1978) as well as a sciences & medical/ geological tricorder. The removable Phaser one can be seen in photo # 32. This company had a 3 ½ year run. Purchased in 1978. This is company #1 again.
6. Same company as in photo # 35. In addition, they also produced a "data board" ( see photo#6) This replica has a touch sensitive pad that will activate the lights at random intervals. 1978 C#1
198036. Another early version of this company's Phaser 2. This company had about a 12 year run. Note that the nozzle was wrong, which was later corrected and downsized. In addition the whole piece was a bit out of proportion. These problems were later corrected and this piece became quite a popular seller at conventions, and through the mail until paramount stopped them in 1994, This model also has removable Phaser 1 - 1980.
