This is a Glock 40. Fifty Cent. Too Short. All of them talk about a Glock 40. OK?
I'm the only one in this forum fool enough - that I know of - to shoot himself with a Glock 40.

Not to mention handsomer.

Cool, does it talk or move? That's like Barney on how I met your mother with the storm trooper.
Yes, it's fully RC, lights, sounds, etc.

Does it display a holographic image of a princess in trouble?

it does light up and play the message audio. But since holograms or that nature aren't quite a reality yet, it doesn't do that. :mrgreen: I have thought about mounting a small projector inside the head so that it could at least project onto the wall.

Oh come on now, I've seen them in the movies and internet so I know they are true. You are just holding back on us.

Cheap knock-off.

Seems like I remember seeing a very cool one at Disney World years ago. It would follow someone for a while beeping and chirping then it would follow someone else.

Yup, one of my buddies in the hobby runs the Disney R2 in Orlando. Very similar setup.

I just came across this and found it fitting.
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - Portland police disarmed a man accused of swinging a toy light saber at customers in a toy store, assaulting at least three of them.

Sgt. Pete Simpson says officers found the man - still swinging the light saber - in the parking lot of a Toys R Us store Wednesday night at the Jantzen Beach mall. One officer tried to use a Taser but it was ineffective.

A second officer made contact with his Taser but the man used his light saber to break one of the wires.
