This extremely short-lived gaming system required the usage of an existing VCR (since it could not play tapes on its own), as well as the actual Actionmax system itself. Sensors had to be set up properly on the television set, and a red light indicated when a target was locked on. The gamer would be able to shoot targets with the included light gun.
The system was created by Worlds of Wonder, more famous for its other popular toys such as Photon and Teddy Ruxpin.
