The Merchandise Guide
Commlocks and Stun Guns
Compiled by Martin Willey

US 1975

Two commlocks in the pack. Approximate likeness, with a large round speaker in the top front face, and logo in the bottom front face. Each uses a 9 volt battery for the walkie-talkie radio. When buttons 7, 8 and 9 are pressed various electronic sounds are made. The packaging is a biege box with window showing one commlock. The instruction sheet includes morse code. There are also two small photos on cardboard of Koenig (from Last Sunset) and Helena (holding up a slide): these could be slotted into top to simulate the video screen.

Titled "comlock"- the series spelled the name both "commlock" and "comlock".

Various 1:1 replicas were made by so called "garage" kit manufacturers, usually based on the blueprints in the Technical Notebook (note that the studio props varied in dimensions). Many of these are probably unlicensed.

UK/ US 1976

Made in Hong Kong.

Another version of the stun gun, relatively accurate and very similar to the Ahi water gun, with logo on side intersecting a circle. There were two slightly different backing cards (one had a laser beam drawn as if shooting from the gun, the other without).

See other Azrak-Hamway (ahi) toys.

Features: "Lazer beam" (2.4 volt light bulb), "project a light target" (three 3.5 cm diameter caps with crude cut out shapes of Eagle, buggy & astronaut, which fit over light), "sequential colour lights" (3 small bulbs below light which blink), "realistic space sound" (ugly noise), "3 function actuator" (!?!)

Box 28 x 20 x 7 cm, crude art of gun, small Eagle beyond. Toy mounted inside on card braces. 19.5 x 35.5 cm instruction sheet for fitting batteries.

Remco-Burbank also produced the Space Belt (aka Utility Belt).

Space Belt picture thanks to Patrick Hannas.
Below: 1976 catalogue shows a different "radiation detector". The pictured version looks like a commlock (upside down and stylized, but recognisable). In the released set it is actually the same as the Bat Walki-Talkie from the Batman Utility Set. Thanks to Gordon Moriguchi

1977?
Blister pack of spare discs for the stun gun (from the Remco Utility Belt?) and Star Trek phaser. The card has art of a phaser (left) and stun gun (right, with series logo on the side) on a bluish background.
