Sega Toys set to release the new improved Homestar

by Graham on June 19th, 2008

No, it’s not the Homstar Spa, which we reported on the other day.

It is, yet another, Homestar gadget/toy/device/wizardry (delete as appropriate) from Sega Toys, but back to the original style of placing in your living room and watching the night’s sky from your sofa, instead of the bath tub.

There have been a fair few Homestar’s released now, with Homestar Pro being the best on the market… until now that is. Homestar EX is the latest in the franchise, sporting larger discs (which contain the images that are projected), and a higher image quality.

Also, apparently the Homestar EX is so powerful you can see the projections clearly when the lights are on in the room. (Handy for some daytime night-watching)

While the Homestar Spa is being released for a comfortable price of $70, reports are speculating that the Homestar EX will be more in the $700 region! So I’m guessing only the wealthy of biggest of astrological fans will be purchasing this one.

But the price is yet to be confirmed, when the gadget hits Japanese stores later this year.
