Factory Entertainment Opens Pre-Orders on Star Trek: The Next Generation ‘Dust Buster’ Phaser

Factory Entertainment proudly presents the latest entry in its prolific line of high-end officially licensed limited edition prop replicas, the Star Trek: The Next Generation Type-2 ‘Dust Buster’ Phaser.

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. This prop replica is limited to 1500 pieces and is expected to ship June 2023. You can order now, and payment plans are available.
