Editorial Review
You adjust your fingers to get a better grip as you steady your tagger and watch the "locked on" icon flash in your HUD. With a grin you squeeze back on the trigger and score another hit for your team. Welcome to the new extreme in electronic tag! With two extremely durable taggers and connecting Heads Up Display units you're ready to play almost right out of the box (you'll need 6 AA batteries for each unit that aren't included). Once you're set you'll find an almost endless amount of options such as one-on-one classic games, Hide & Seek, King of the Hill, or those totally customized by you. The HUD lets you see when you're tagged, when you're locked on someone, or even when someone is nearby. You also have the option to use shields to add some extra protection. You'll learn everything you need with instructions that are almost better than perfect.--Chip Quinn

Missing one little feature
I bought 2 pairs (4 taggers) from Amazon.com to have fun with my boys. Everything works as described: you can track hits, raise shields, reload, etc.

Unfortunately, one might also expect that it should matter where you aim the gun; this is core functionality that somehow didn't make it into the design spec. Whether you aim at the ceiling, floor, wall, or whatever, when you pull the trigger every other unit will be "hit". Note that this does not require the target to be in the line of sight; just hit a ceiling or a nearby wall and the target will still be hit. It really takes the fun out of the game when there is no point in hiding or aiming. The winner is always the person who can pull the trigger fastest and all "games" are over in seconds.

I would have thought my unit was defective, but all 4 units behave exactly the same. Why would anyone bother to program all these possible games and forget to make it necessary to aim the gun? You can even fire the opposite direction and still hit all the units behind you. As they say, you can't miss!

These units will probably last a long time without breaking, as they are on a shelf gathering dust.

Great fun!
I picked this up at a major discount, and I had low expectations, but my son loves it (and so do I). Fairly durable, impressive functionality.

Kids (and adults) love it!
I ordered two sets (4 guns). The guns are great. I thought one was dead right out of box, but I switched the battery holder with the battery holder from another gun and everything was fine. They feel very sturdy, but can't help but worry about the kids dropping them. My nine year-old loves them. We play constantly, and his friends want to come play all of the time. THE GUNS ARE NOT COMPLICATED TO PROGRAM! Very easy. If you just want to start a game, pull the trigger twice . . . there is a 10 second countdown, and then the game starts, even if everyone does not start at the same time, no big deal. Excellent lazer tag system.
