(be gentle… I’m still working on improving my green screen techniques)
Here’s my son’s first interstellar flight, thanks to Radio Fliers Retro Rocket. He got this for his 1 year birthday from Lando da Pimp from MillionairePlayboy.com. Though the package recommends 10 months and up my son really enjoyed it once he was able to climb on and off of it. Now he loves zooming up and down the hallway, (and through space) Check out my sorry attempt at special effects in the quick video above.
We also review Art Asylum / Diamond Select Toys’ Star Trek Communicator and Phaser replicas from the Original Series. These high quality replicas features lights and sound from the show, are fully “functional” (parts move, you can really have fun with these), and aren’t prohibitively expensive (about $25 a pop). The best part is , they were specially designed to take standard batteries… none of that having to track down weird watch battery sizes. Though there is video of my son playing with this, these are collectibles intended for ages 14 & up. You can get an exclusive two pack at BigBadToyStore.com
In this review I reference our Back to the Future themed Flux Capacitor review (also by Diamond Select Toys) also laden with special effects.
