Original 1977 DL-44 Han Solo Blaster Reborn!

I dug out my old 1977-issue DL-44 Han Solo Blaster from the basement. After Clorox-wiping 34 years of crud off of it, I popped in some C batteries and discovered that it still works. That horrible analog whine brought back fond memories. Too bad it scared the shit out of my cat - literally. My wife has told me that showing it to my 3 year old was not good parenting. What does that mean? My parents gave me the damn thing when I was three and look at how I turned out! Um . . . okay, bad example.
