Xshot Chaos Orbit Royale Edition Review
Zuru was able to get the Royale Meteors on Target shelves earlier this year, and now they’re carrying the Royale Orbit as well. Granted, it’s only online, and seems to go in and out of stock. Even so,...

Nerf Elite 2.0 Turbine Review
Let’s be honest – the Elite 2.0 line hasn’t had the best start. Hasbro may have opted for easy-to-manufacture blasters, but doing so resulted in some nasty compromises. The blasters still perform well,...

Nerf Rival Overwatch B.Va Blaster Review
The B.Va blaster has been an elusive thing to find – at first, a few samples of this presumably cancelled blaster were on Ebay. Then, some of them started appearing at Ross. Now, with pallets of them...

Nerf Alpha Strike Infantry Pack Review
The Alpha Strike line had a rough start; the first blasters on shelves were budget blasters in every sense, to the point that the skeletonized shells bit into users’ hands. Now with proper grips, the...

Dart Zone Cornerfire Review
I’m a little late on reviewing this one, but it’s a fun blaster! The Cornershot is one of the best combinations of gimmick and performance blaster to appear on shelves. The idea of folding blasters...

Nerf Halo Mangler Review
Nerf crossovers vary in quality. There’s a balance between the looks/cosplay value and actual blaster function to consider. Some examples, like the Nerf Halo MA40, are a great blend of working blaster...

Author’s note: thank you, Zing Toys, for the free sample! Sometimes as an influencer, you drop the ball. In my case, between moving, getting engaged, and life in general, I’ve had items from Zing...

Nerf Alpha Strike Uppercut Review
Is there a reason for this thing to exist? Alpha Strike is supposed to provide basic, inexpensive blasters, but this takes the idea to a new extreme. It’s a Jolt without a trigger; you simply slam the...

Nerf Ultra Three Review
The Nerf enthusiast community has given the Ultra line plenty of grief. Between wonky ergonomics, darts (and blasters) that didn’t always live up to the original claims, and the expense of the darts,...

Xshot Omega/Reflex Pack Minireview

Nerf Dinosquad Tricera-Blast Review
Second in this year’s Dinosquad line is the Tricera-Blast. As you’d expect of a blaster based on a three-horned reptile, it has three shots. It’s also a hammer-primed blaster, with a flip-open barrel...

D-Dart Tempest V2 Review
A year and a half ago, we saw the release of the original Tempest. It was a cool, if underpowered, concept. But it also wasn’t compatible with the vast majority of darts. A year and a half (and one...

Adventure Force Water Strike Electro Surge Review
I don’t usually rate water blasters; they’re a lot harder to objectively pin down than dart blasters. I also have never given anything a zero. Sadly, that changes today. The Electro Surge, although...
