Star Wars Power of the Force Comm Tech Chips

Star Wars Comm Tech Chip Reader 1999

     The first Comm Tech Chip Reader was available in 1999 released with the Phantom Menace line of action figures. In order to listen to the Comm Tech Chips, one had to buy a Comm Tech Reader, install a 9 volt battery, turn on the Reader and slide the chip slowly across the face of it. You can hear several of the character's lines from the movie.

Phantom Menace

     There were oval Chips that were produced but not released to the general public due to a very high cost for producing them and a lack of interest. These are known as the 2nd generation Comm Tech Chips and several do exist in various styles and colors.

     This technology is very impressive and is known as RFID (Radio Frequency Identification). The Reader has two pre-programmed sounds in it and can store the data of a total of four chips. In various parts of Europe it is known as the Comm Talk Reader.
