Product Description
In the Halo 3, the set shoots harmless infrared beams at clip-on targets to convert the excitement of Halo into a feat pace laser pursuit game. The covenant weapon is capable of quickly firing low-powered shots, or charging a single high-powered blast which can rapidly deplete energy shielding. With detailed replication, internally lit parts, and real game sound effects this laser pursuit gaming set brings the thrill of Halo to a whole new level!

|  | | Realistic Looking Design
For fans of the video game, these Plasma Pistols will look like they were pulled right out of the computer screen. Made of a durable hard plastic and carefully crafted and colored to look just like its video game counterpart, we were very impressed with the hefty, build quality. The likeness doesn't end with just the physical look; the plasma gun also lights up in the appropriate spots, creates realistic sounds, and even has details like overheating sounds. The guns feel wonderful in the hand and aren't uncomfortable in any way. Laser Tag Fun
The guns aren't just collectible replicas; they're functional and with them, you can play a great game of laser tag with your friends. This set includes two guns and two target units, enough for a two player game, but more guns can be purchased to increase the number of players. To begin play, simply flip the switch to on both the gun and the target. The target unit has a belt clip for easy attachment to the player's body. With each shot you will hear the firing sound from the game, and the tip will light up. When you hit the target, it flashes and makes a sound. The target has six shield levels that are indicated by lights on the unit, and the game is over when all six shield levels are depleted. Just as in the video game, you can create a super shot by holding the trigger down for at least three seconds and then releasing. This super shot inflicts more damage but will temporarily overheat the gun and disable it. When ammo is used up, a push of the reload button lets you resume. Also, like in the video game, the target will regenerate shield levels if not hit for 20 seconds. Long Range
We were able to test the target from about 50 feet away without any problems. (The instruction booklet claims a range of 92 feet. ) One minor annoyance we encountered was that the laser tracking device wasn't especially accurate; we would get "hits" even when we weren't aiming straight at the target. This was especially noticeable in short distances and while playing one-player target practice. With multiple players, there was so much running around and the target was so difficult to hit that we did not notice. Batteries Required
Each Plasma Pistol requires 4 AA batteries to operate and each target needs 3 AA batteries, meaning a total of 14 batteries are needed for a two player game. Investing in rechargeable batteries might be wise and would save money in the long run. The guns and targets will enter sleep mode if it detects no activity for 10 minutes, saving battery life. What's in the Box
Two covenant plasma pistols, two targets, user manual.

14 Batteries of Fun! January 2, 2009
Kirpal Barrientos (Williamsburg, VA)
The boys were fighting to see who keeps the toy. They enjoyed running around chasing each other.
I should have read the review but it uses 14 "AA" batteries. What you don't pay in the toy, you pay it in batteries.

The set worked fine for about five minutes and then one of the guns speaker quit. You can barely hear the laser gun blasts if you put your ear right up to it. Otherwise, it still functions, activating the laser box the kids wear. It's made in China. Not too impressed with the quality.
My nephew went bonkers for it! December 27, 2008

This was without a doubt the gift that got the biggest "oh, boy, let's play" response this Christmas from the kiddies. As soon as the box got opened, my niece and nephew hustled in the batteries and went to the yard to play--running, diving, rolling. Just having a heckuva great time.
I thought just the boys would like it, but this was just a hit all around.
So, yeah. Kids like it. :) Just remember to buy a boatload of batteries. You need 14 to play, and I'm guessing they don't last that long. We included 14 batteries with the gift, just so they could enjoy it right off.

I read all the reviews on hear and decided I'd get some for christmas. I ordered 5 sets. I knew that they would take a lot of batteries (4 for each gun and 3 for each target) but we always have a plethora of batteries. The adults were so excited about them and were playing later that night. I like them because they're fun but also if something happens to one-like it gets broken in the frenzy-they are easily replaced.
You get what you pay for. December 18, 2008

This is a fun little toy, but don't confuse this for the other version of the plasma pistol. This one isn't as pretty and flashy, does not have the rumble and doesn't pop open on overheating. It has the sound effects, a little light on the side that flashes when overheating, and some extremely faint green lights in the "barrel" and in terms of gameplay it is functionally the same, but it isn't a great replica like the more expensive version. Bottom line, if you want a cheap laser tag set, (or just want to have enough to be able to use one or two of the more expensive models in a real game) then these are a good deal. If you want awesome halo collectibles, you'd be better off getting the solo version.
