QMX Star Trek: 2009 Movie Phaser Stunt Replica

I received the "stunt" or "static" phaser w/in a week of my order, in excellent condition. It is exactly as described by the vender and other customers' comments (NOTE: If you wish to see this or any other sci-fi products closer, get a detailed description, and explaination/demonstration of the product by other "collectors", look for it on You Tube).The product comes in an attractive box, and is encased in form-fitting styrofoam, as is the stand. The phaser or "prop" has no moving parts (However, a "modified" version allowing you to spin the nozzle, or gun's barrel, from kill to stun, is also demonstrated on You Tube. Unfortunately the video does not show how modify it).The phaser easily slips on the stand for presentation. The phaser itself looks great, and has some heft to it, weighing between 1.5 to 2 lbs and is adult-sized, about 7 - 8 inches long. It is coated completely in metal and nicely colored. It looks more expensive then it is, and therefore worth the price. Since it has no moving part and is encased in metal, it's very durable. However, I recommend displaying it in a bookself or curio cabinet, simply because this looks like it should by displayed.Finally, these manufactures are beginning to produce sci-fi collector's items for "adults" at a reasonable price. Thank you Quantum Mechanix

I purchased this item for Halloween - I thought it would make an excellent prop for my "red shirt" costume. Unfortunately, at one point I had to lean down and grab something off the floor, and the phaser fell off my belt 2 feet to the ground. Instead of clacking and potentially chipping like I would have expected from a plastic toy, the Phaser EXPLODED into 6 large pieces, and somewhere in the area of 10 small pieces (some of which I was never able to recover due to their size.) I was able to glue most of it back into it's original shape with super glue, but it now looks even more shoddy than it originally did.On that note, in it's original mint condition it had glue marks where pieces had been attached, and even a big glue fingerprint where someone handled the fake chrome painted onto the bottom half of the device with a gluey finger. On top of this, some pieces were haphazardly attached and slightly crooked in the original construction phase. Call my picky, but hey this is a DISPLAY product - I'm not mad it wasn't durable enough to survive upon my careless slip-up (I only mention this for those thinking of buying it for children, or so those who do purchase this item are very careful with it,) but if it's going to be THAT fragile, it should at least look outstanding.Overall, I don't think I got what I paid for at around 50-60 dollars (I used the 35 dollar reseller - Redford Films,) which charged a whopping 23 dollars for expedited shipping - I asked them to refund the entire order when I had realized there was a cheaper option - they told me the item had NOT shipped yet (in fact, they only received my order 45 minutes before my calling them,) but because they "processed" the order, they were going to refuse me a full refund. My only option was to take the item, or return it and incur a loss of my original shipping cost (which was around 40% of the cost of the item) as well as an additional "restocking fee", which they decided not to tell me the amount of in order to dissuade me. If you are going to buy this item, I recommend you steer clear of this reseller. They got my item to me on time, but they are not interested in serving their customers before themselves (even if the request is perfectly reasonable.)In my opinion, I should have purchased the 80 dollar alternative phaser here on Amazon.com that was better constructed and even included sound effects (maybe also lights, I can't recall exactly on that note, though.) I wanted something cheaper, and boy did I learn my lesson! Dropping it was on me, but the original construction was certainly on the manufacturer.

Great heft. Metal replica provides a good substitute for the real thing-a bargain at $30.The only thing I didn't like was the fact that the dual tip didn't flip back and forth.Otherwise, I love it, and I wish it could be Halloween every day so I could carry it around with me without feeling really weird...

Phaser looks great, but tends to chip. The "chrome" finish does not stay on long when you handle it. The barrels do not rotate, and the resin is of poor quality. I intend to cut the phaser in half, and use it as a mold for a solid aluminum one.

As a lifelong Star Trek fan, I'm not interested in junk props or anything cheaply made. I want something that will endure the way my enthusiasm has for the movies and TV shows. This prop phaser feels like you're holding a real prop from the new movie. Nice detailing. Great styling. Wonderful balance and WEIGHT to it. It's as authentic as you'll get without breaking into the prop department at Paramount. No, it doesn't light up or flip around like in the movie, but for $45 it still feels like a great value. The included stand is sturdy enough to hold it up on any flat surface and it looks great on a bookshelf. An instant conversation piece when friends are over. A fine addition to any movie memorabilia collection.

The phaser is very good quality and has a good weight to it.It is made of a solid plastic or resin but is somehow metal plated.The hole in the end of the barrel on mine was not perfectly round and bothers me but I still like it.It looks realistic but has no lights or sounds which I would prefer.It comes with a clear-grey plastic stand to display it.Overall good quality and good price for a one of a kind item.I recommend it for any Star Trek fan.

While a good representation the finish quality was average with some signs of cast and plating defects. The inability to rotate the barrel was disappointing.

I collect Star Trek weapon replicas and this was definitely worth the money. It's well made and very attractive. It came with a nice display stand. The only things that would have made it better is if it could switch from stun to kill and had sounds and lights. It is an awesome display piece and I'm proud to own it.

Seemingly manufactured out of resin and covered with a steel-effect paint scheme (it is definitely not chrome or steel plated despite the sales description) this is a 1:1 scale replica of the 2009 Starfleet Issue standard phaser sidearm as seen in Star Trek, and Star Trek: Into Darkness. It is quite a weighty item, and the resin suggests that dropping it would be a very bad idea. You can select either stun or kill by manually rotating (gently) the firing assembly. The overall effect is one of an authentic prop, although I would not consider it suitable as a toy (especially for a child) or as an addition to a costume as it is strictly a display item in my opinion. Those of you who order this item expecting to receive a Blu-Ray 3D disc with it should be advised that this item was discontinued with later stock, and should ignore the labeling on the box which reads 'Blu-Ray 3D Combo Pack and Phaser'.

Produit conforme à la photo et à la description faites sur sa page web.Cet article est une réplique conforme créée pour les besoins du tournage et à exposer. Ce n'est en aucun cas un jouet.*Le plus "jouissif", je l'admet sans honte, c'est de savoir que très peu de ces modèles furent produit car ils ne l'ont été que pour l'usage du tournages...Ici, le splendide "Phaser" de l'unité de Starfleet.Réplique statique en partie faite de métal donc relativement lourde. Le canon ne pivote pas comme dans le film (dommage) et c'est certain, il ne tirera jamais aucune charge photonique...Certaines partie sont en polyrésine mais l’ensemble est relativement solide (si l'on ne le fait pas tomber de son présentoir par exemple).L'objet donne réellement l'impression qu'elle est fonctionnel.Très beau travail, toujours agréable à regarder et à exposer.Je suis content de cet achat.

not as good as I thought
