SQUIRT GUNS #04 (BLACK REPLICA) |
Updated: July 31, 2017
RELIVE THE ADVENTURES OF THE SPACE FAMILY ROBINSON WITH THIS
FIRST SEASON LASER WATER PISTOL!!
The design for this water pistol was based on the Lost in Space
laser pistol from the first season, but due to copyright issues
with the show's producer, Irwin Allen, these pistols were never
released to the public with any direct tie-in to the series.
Later, after the word "Lost" was removed from the raised relief
wording on the left side of the gun, the toy was released as a
generic "Laser" or "Space" Water Pistol. What makes this "laser"
particularly interesting is that when the water pistol was finally
released for sale in the US the words "In Space" were not removed
from the side of the gun. They remain as proof of the gun's LIS
origins.
This fan-made replica is the painted plastic water pistol pictured.
The black painted version is my own rendition of the first season
laser pistol.
Value: $20.
