    She's Got No Water Captain!


    The above Enterprise water pistol pretty much epitomizes why I love rack toys in the first place. The first thing is it's fragility, there was no way these things should have survived a trip to the car let alone being kept mint in package for 35 years. The other is, well, look at this thing, it's a strange combination of goofy and awesome. I don't know whether to laugh or be in awe of it.

    Now that is really cool. Though it woulda been cooler if it was shaped like a phaser.

          Before the time when Rack Toys started using the same molds over and over with a Star Trek (or fill-in-the-blank) sticker on them.

          It's a better looking Enterprise sculpt than a few other toys I've seen!

                No way! Having it shaped like a phaser would be so... conventional.

                    That's really cool looking. As a kid, I definitely would have wanted to buy this.

                        I have two of these. One in the package and one loose.
                        They are delicate but very very cool
                        That and the mini flashlight phaser are two of my all time favs

                            I would have been all over that as a kid and then searching to see if they made a Klingon one to do battles with. lol
                            It's all good!
