Popy XX-2 Photon Flamethrower

XX-2 Photon Flamethrower

This has become one of my favorite accessories. Colored, translucent tips cover a "sparking" device (basically a metal plate that's struck by a gear). One winds up via a knob and presses a button for it to fire. Comes with two extra, different colored tips and two extra sparking plates (to replace the one inside when it wears out!).

The original marketing photos for this accessory show a more hand-like shape, presumably of a prototype - also the early No. 2850 series figure boxes show differences more akin to the prototype than the actual released toy. Just something of interest.
