Own a classic piece of 24th-century technology with this authentic 1994 Playmates Star Trek: The Next Generation Type I "Cricket" Phaser. This 1:1 scale toy replica was a staple of the mid-90s Playmates line, meticulously modeled after the compact stealth phasers used by Captain Picard, Commander Riker, and the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise-D.
This item is being sold as-is for parts, repair, or display, as the electronic light and sound functions are currently non-operational.
Design & Detail
The "Cricket" Phaser was renowned for its sleek, ergonomic "cobra-head" design, representing the advanced aesthetic of the TNG era. This replica features the original Starfleet grey casing with copper-toned accents and the signature thumb-trigger firing button. The authentic molding includes the power-level indicator strip and the beam intensity adjustment dial found on the screen-used props.
Condition & Technical Notes
-
Electronics: Currently non-functional. The phaser does not produce sound or light effects when the trigger is depressed. This may be due to corroded battery contacts or internal wiring age.
-
Battery Compartment: The battery door is present and fits securely.
-
Cosmetic Condition: The plastic casing is in very good vintage condition with minimal surface scuffs or play wear. The original copper and silver paint accents remain largely intact and vibrant.
-
Structural Integrity: The trigger mechanism still has a satisfying tactile "click" when pressed, and there are no cracks or structural breaks in the housing.
Collector’s Potential
This is an ideal acquisition for a variety of Star Trek enthusiasts:
-
Cosplayers: A perfect, lightweight prop for a TNG-era uniform where functional electronics are not required.
-
Repair Hobbyists: A great candidate for a restoration project or for harvesting authentic 1990s replacement parts.
-
Display Collectors: An excellent shelf piece for a Star Trek armory or "Evolution of the Phaser" collection.
