  • If the system, battery or charger are taken apart, warranty and support are void.
  • Do not use batteries and chargers supplied by a 3rd party.
  • Do not expose the system to water or liquid.
  • Do not use outside the guaranteed operating temperature of 5~35C.

  • Do not use and leave the system near babies and small children.
  • Paint may peel with excessive repeated transformation.
  • The box packaging is for transportation and storage only. It is not warranted.
  • Display Mode sets DOMINATOR to automatic transformation and constant LED lighting for display. As DOMINATOR will transform automatically, you must use the OFFICIAL DOMINATOR STAND. Activating Display Mode without the OFFICIAL DOMINATOR STAND will damage DOMINATOR and could cause injury to yourself or others. Continuous automatic transformation and LED activation as a result of using Display Mode for long periods of time can cause performance degradation of DOMINATOR resulting in a shorter product life.

Differences between the animation DOMINATOR and this system

  • This system can not transform to Destroy Decomposer.
  • In PSYCHO-PASS, DOMINATOR voice guidance is played directly to the user so only they can hear the sound. This system uses a regular speaker, therefore the sounds can be heard by anyone near the user.
  • The trigger is not physically locked on this system when the Crime Coefficient is under 100 or an unauthorized user is selected. When the trigger is pulled, the system will playback the trigger lock sound.
  • In the original story, the user can see information such as crime coefficient values without extra equipment. However, you will have to use the DOMINATOR app to see the data.
