Summary
A pair of walkie-talkies (circa 2007),made of moulded plastic, one red and black, and the other green and black. Each handset is mainly rectangular in shape (although the corners are rounded), red or green with black and gold-coloured ridges at each side. On the front is a colour-printed paper label - each has the 'Power Rangers / Mystic Force' logo and an image of a Power Rangers character. Above this to the left is a 'Power' light labelled in white ink. On the back is a moulded belt clip and a paper label containing information about the correct batteries to be used, trademarks, etc. On one side of each handset is an 'On/Off' switch and on the other side is a button to depress when speaking. Each is labelled in black ink. The aerial is made from black flexible plastic, topped with a cap of red or green to match the handset. When purchased, the walkie-talkies were inside original packaging which consisted of clear moulded plastic with colour-printed paper inserts. This had to be cut open to free the contents and has now been stored separately. Total number of items is 3.
Provenance
Purchased for the Museum of Childhood by Mrs Sue J. Fraser (Collections Assistant) in July 2007.
