Prop Story
As seen in the iconic TV series Star Trek: The Next Generation, Type-2 Phasers were issued to Starfleet personnel during the early 2360’s and are larger and more powerful than Type-1 Phasers. Unofficially referred to by production as "The Dust Buster," they were intentionally designed to be sleek, free-flowing and less pistol-like than previous prop Starfleet weapon iterations.
Many different Dust Buster Phaser props were made and they ranged from fairly primitive non-functioning ‘stunt’ props, to more elaborate ‘hero’ props featuring functioning electronics. Featuring an impressively heavy all metal body, this replica has been designed to capture the best elements from all variants in a single blended execution and incorporate a variety of electronic light and sound features designed to simulate the special effects as seen on screen.
Each numbered, limited edition, museum-quality replica comes with a wooden presentation case, metal plaque and certificate of authenticity.
