Just going to post this pic of this vintage "prop" and see who knows the history. 
Vintage models just an eye candy bonus.

Well it was post Star Wars. LOL
logan's run??
Nice guess, it reflects that era in design.
Well, it was never a film prop, but it was made by someone who made props.
o.k. so it was never "on screen".... was this for MOVIES or T.V.? :confused
Mr. Richard Coyle produced these in that lost golden age for sale at conventions.

Sadly I no longer possess, lost to stupidity.
He made some pretty cool looking weapons for sale back then with digital displays.
This one was really basic but still had lots of lights and sounds.
I think there must be a few forum members that remember.

do you have any pictures of when you owned it? I was wondering about the "classic grainy" first pic... almost look's like a 35mm slide

That's the only picture I have. Polaroid instant camera. I found it in my box of old photos. At least it never faded, just crappy resolution.
NICE!! that's cool... now i have that song in my head.... "shake, shake, shake it like a polaroid picta" :lol
Yeah!, and if I recall it wasn't necessary, people thought they were helping it dry or something.
LOL awesome. soooo does (did) the pistol barrel light up??? :confused
It was quite a light show. The barrel was clear acrylic, the muzzle also with a light, the insert in the body was clear with more lights,
lots of switches on the back to control various blaster sounds. Someone else surely must possess something from the era.
Curious if anyone hung onto anything.

well i'm geussing again... maybe pre-production (classic) flash gordon? I can keep guessing until someone else actually post's another opinion LOL P.S. I have not clicked any link's to cheat!! :thumbsup
I think that comes from the very early Polaroid cameras like my Dad had (late 50s, or early 60s). You would pull the picture from the camera, peel a sheet off the photo, then rub a developer on the photo. You would then shake the photo to help the developer dry.
David.
My Father for some reason had pity on me at a convention and surprised me with being able to buy it.
Ran around the hotel like a nut and had a lot of fun with it at Halloween. So I got his money's worth.
But many things just don't survive growing up. Maybe someone else will have been smart and hung onto theirs.
