You can't go wrong with a good classic TOS phaser. I had the Art Asylum one.
So true. I've seen a lot of toy 'phasers' over the years - compared to the 'phasers' of the late 60s & early 70s the AA phaser is truly amazing and very well rendered.
Cool video lost of knowledge thank you so much
When I was in elementary school back in the 70's, one of my friends had the Starfleet Technical manual and we made type 1 phasers out of cardboard. I wish I could find that thing. I probably remember it being better than it actually was, but at the time it was awesome. We were going to make the Type II to accompany it, but it was always too unstable so we never did finish that. I own the Technical manual now myself, I should try again...
Thanks for watching. I work mostly in various forms of plastic, but using other materials to create models or replicas is very cool. If you want to try your cardboard phaser build again, I say - go for it. BTW, here's an idea for you, there's a video on UA-cam where a woman builds a type-II phaser from 'florist foam' (that really stiff styrofoam used as a base for floral arrangements). I wish I could remember the video's title, but if you do a search you might find it and get some ideas how to do something similar.
great video very extensive re the models of phazers on startrek. I have one of the Rodenbury types didn't realize how many types until now.
Thanks for the comment. I didn't realize there were so many TOS variations either, not until I started building phasers and had to do research to get the details right - well, to get the details anyway (lol).
Your “Bradley Nelson,” “ Star Trek Phase II” PHASER is just terrible and bares little to no resemblance to an actual Brad Nelson “Star Trek Phase II” PHASER or the resin replica kits that were made by casting off a mould from an actual Brad Nelson Phase II PHASER.
Yours is a mess and is just not a great attempt.
Things not in the proper locations.
The top rear settings dial is way too far back!.
Also, no details on that top rear surface of the PHASER.
Brad's PHASERS had much more prominent round cast edges and corners.
There were fewer rear fins and the fins were part of the casted body and not a seperate piece. Your BN version has too many and seperate piece/s fins.
This is not correct, either.
The P1 is just a mess.
( Later versions of the BN P1 hand PHASER used an aluminium rectangular piece, for the heat aspiration/venting grille, that looked a helluva lot more functional than that stupid, more decorative looking, “rainbow effect” sticky tape that really didn’t look functional, at all!
Your version of a Brasley Nelson PHASER just isn’t it.
Sorry, but it isn't and it is not even close.
Just an awful attempt.
Maybe you should consider another attempt, again, at a Brad Nelson PHASER and, this time, try and find and start with a TOS PHASER kit that is done as a resin model kit that would allow for much better modifications of the body and allow you to more accurately place parts and elements of BN ST-Phase II PHASER.
Your version just does not look, at all, like a Bradley Nelson PHASER.
Again, sorry.
The major key element to buiding a BN PHASER, from any TOS PHASER kit is trying to recreate/modify tge kit to get all of the softer, rounded casted edges/corners of Brad Nelson PHASER. That is the real key element/challenge. This can be more convincingly done/modified using a resin style PHASER kit than with a fiberglass or vacuformed kit
Thanks for watching and the comment. You're certainly entitled to your opinion but I owned a Brad Nelson phaser, and except for the 'dc meter' in the P-I this replica is very close to the original.
