Toys and Games Reviews of Star Wars Science - Optical Command Unit
Customer Review: techmanb
Summary: 2 Stars
I first saw this toy at the Science and Industry Museum in Chicago. My son is an avid Star Wars fan, and I thought that this would be a good compromise for a Christmas gift.
While the concept of the device is a good one, its design and construction leave much to be desired.
-First of all, it was like putting a model together. It came in the same type of plastic that snap-tite model kits do, only it did not go together as well as they do
-Then there is the "optics". Supposedly, you can slide a bar forward and backward to adjust the range or clarity of site through the lenses. The plastic that holds the lenses onto the adjusting bar is extremely thin, and flexes very easily, which means that the lenses stick and don't move very well.
-The other issue is the light. While the pen-light itself works great (after all, how hard is it to make a flashlight?), the photo projection slides are lousy. You have to literally have the front of the projector against a wall to even get an idea of what is on the slide.
For the price that they charge for this, I would have been better off to get a cheap pair of binoculars and flashlight at a supercenter, then decorating them a little. To say that I was disappointed is an understatement.
