While the TV remote stuff in a phaser is a little more questionable I gotta say an actual working communicator is cool as hell in my book, the extra gubbins is a great idea
I've had one of these for several years. A million points on the cool scale but utterly impractical. Who wants to go around having their phone conversations walkie-talkie style? No privacy. Anyway, mine being a few years older plays different voice clips. It doesn't have any Kirk on it.
I've had one of these for years still sitting on my desk. I've really enjoyed it, but I have one criticism... the damn thing will power on and connect to my phone randomly. My garage sits under my room, and it will connect and take over my phone with no input from me. I'll be puttering around my garage with my phone connected to a Bluetooth I keep there, and suddenly the communicator in my room above powers on, connects to my phone and takes over all audio functions. Real annoying!
The star trek shop commissioned this 50th anniversary model. They sold through the production run quickly. The originals were off the market for a couple of years. The price has skyrocketed.
What a shame they didn’t put a belt clip on it so people could see it on your belt. That would get a response when you lift it off your belt and flip it open to answer a phone call.
I would love to see them create the Zap Pad tablets from the Zenon movies.

It's basically an accurate working model of a collectible Star Trek prop. It's both beautiful and amazing.

every NED in my street sounds like PHONEJACKER with other side of conversation thru a bullhorn
The original one does have Kirk on. It's a secret button press to activate him
Looks like great quality
I love your enthusiasm 🙂

1960s' precursor to the flip phone
Hold the left button down and the right button up for 10 seconds, easter egg.

Have you held the buttons down for about 10seconds yet? Easter Egg undocumented!

I carry mine from time to time to see people's reaction but these millennials have no clue what the device is so i'm wasting my time mostly.
Yeeeah sure. LOL 👎
