If it's a fake, it's the fake of the century. The flat bottom question is down to angle and lighting, but all the other tells are there. It needs to be in the Smithsonian, too!

Just came across this. Yeah, I had a casting like that with the hollow trigger but lost it in my house fire years ago. Luckily, I found and bought a build-up from Scott Nakada recently that's beautiful. Somewhere in a box I *think* I have the damaged original I'd like to refurb. Went looking for...

JUST discovered mine is dead. Any tips on finding the correct battery would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I too need a battery replacement. JUST discovered mine is dead. Any pointers or help would be greatly appreciated.

I endorse this product! Get one if you can!

All I have is a Shanko b/w. At least it's fiberglass. (Had to re-work it. It was REALLY rough.)

Yup. Got an SD handle RIGHT away for mine. I have another still in box I was gonna convert to a B/W, but never got around to it. Happy to see the value going up up up, though!

And they continue to dance around the issue when confronted. It's a shame because the phaser came SOOO close! Not a fan of the sound/light combos, either. (Better on the MR.) Or the GREEN led in the p1. (??)

Looks like they're going the extra mile with this. Maybe they couldn't help but notice all the critiques of the questionable choices they made after bragging about ALL the laser scanning they did with the phaser. (Too skinny handle, body color, matte-finish nozzle, etc.) We shall see...

IF it somehow turns out to be *real,* it's STILL not screen-used. What would be the motivation to pay that much for something that never appeared in the show? Must be something huge we don't know about... or they're just completely deluded- and yes- one hell of a sucker.

Good one!

Well put. Logic would dictate that if certain evidence would irrefutably support their claims, and therefore would alleviate all dissention, then refusing to bring it forth would be- illogical. (And counterproductive.) So again- what's the LOGICAL reason for withholding it from an "up-in-arms"...

You know, all of this could be shut down immediately if the *experts* in question would come forward with their irrefutable provenance. They without doubt know about this thread. So why be silent? And why again do certain others get so triggered, so agitated, so apoplectic over suggestions that...

To clarify: I'm not the one that raised anything about, "people hiding behind fake names on the RPF claiming to be experts" on said prop. And I couldn't agree more: I'm here to discuss the thing- because I detest art forgeries. ;)

All valid questions. Love to hear some valid answers instead of endless posturing, threats, and sabre-rattling.
