do the new ones have the same voice recording as the original or has it been updated?

Think it is original but they are not very clear, I have two different kinds and they both "mumble" the words and some times don't work at all

Etc and so forth.

Nah just a random find on youtube a few years ago, this thread just jogged my memory of it....my vintage talker has that faulty speed-ed up chipmunk type voice that most suffer from. The talking Space Ranger I have is the same too

yeah I've got the old & new versions of the talking commander...the 40th one was part of the Royal Marines dress uniform, I wasn't ever going to buy any 40th stuff, but I really like the look of that uniform and the originals are very rare & expensive so I took the plunge.
The Space Ranger says things like "Space station now visible" & the like...but very quickly in my ones case

- "Erm, can you please slow done a bit sir, I didn't catch that.."

I have those SR uniforms but never realised there was a talker too. Cool. I nabbed the last issue TC and both uniforms, actually 3 I sent one to Steve, for $56au total in 2 job lots (and truck loads more).

Bargain of the decade.
