Buzz Bee Air Warriors Sling Shot Review
February 19, 2020Buzz Bee Toys isn’t a company that shies away from unique blaster experiences. Last year’s Blow Blaster was a fun toy for just $5. This spring, the Sling Shot provides a similarly unique experience for the same price point. Is it useful for a Nerf war? Debatable. Is it fun to use and perfect with practice? Definitely.
(So far, this appears to be a Dollar General exclusive)
Nerf Announces Halo-Branded Blasters
February 18, 2020As is tradition, Hasbro puts out various exclusive scoops with different media outlets leading up to Toy Fair. This year, we start with Gamespot. Which is appropriate, because the newest Nerf line is based on weapons in the Halo universe!
Nerf Ultra Two Review
February 16, 2020After the lackluster start that was the Ultra One, Hasbro is expanding the line farther. This time, the Ultra Two is hitting shelves, right before Toy Fair. It still has some design flaws, one of which can be rectified with slight modification. Nevertheless, I find it an improvement in both fun and performance. If you were waiting to jump on the Ultra train, the Two might convince you to give it a try. Might.
Deadpool X-Force Rival Kronos + Chimichanga!
February 14, 2020A friend recently pointed me to a sale best buy was doing on the newest Deadpool X-Force Kronos. Being a fan of Deadpool, the rival Kronos, and chimichangas (in that order) I felt obligated to acquire one, especially since it had gone down in price significantly. This collectors item is everything I wanted, with some neat surprises.
Adding a New Member!
February 12, 2020As some of you may know, I’ve posted a few things written by another Brian, one that I go to various games with quite often. Long story short, I finally got off my butt and added him as our newest writer!
I still need to update a few things on the website, but he’ll have free reign to write to his heart’s desire. Could be serious. Could be snarky. You’ll just have to wait and see.
Blastr Wrapz Review
February 9, 2020At the end of last year, an interesting alternative to painting and hydrodipping appeared. Blastr Wrapz are vinyl adhesive decals designed to match the outside of several blasters and magazines. For someone looking to customize their blaster but low on time and/or artistic talent, it’s a really cool option. And if you do have an eye for art, you can customize things even more on their website.
Warring Before Toy Fair? NY Dart Zone Event
February 7, 2020Just thought I’d highlight an event happening involving some people in Nerf. If you happen to follow Sophie (@nerfers101), she’s going to be doing things at an event with NY Dart Zone (see their Facebook post). Stop by and shoot her a few times with darts if you’re in the area!
