I inserted 2 large D batteries but the machine didn't work. There is a loose wire so that looks like the problem and just requires someone to stick it back and i'm sure it'll work. Missing the missile but comes with 2 of the foam balls. The missile would go in the top of the launcher and the foam ball would go at the top of the picture. When you turn the machine on the fan would come on blasting the foam ball up.
You would then peer into the launcher using the mirror sight to blast the missile at the foam ball. The launcher also swivels around. I have not take it apart to see the internal workings of it or attempted to fix or clean it, so I can not give any information about this. I have given my honest opinion about the item.
