Siren Maulr Review
The springer primary of Siren’s new line is an interesting set of choices. It’s, understandably, made specifically for Siren’s darts at the expense of others, but that leads to inconsistencies with...

Zuru Xshot Caliber Review
Zuru doesn’t always make “new” blasters – many times, they simply repackage the same blaster in a different shell. Such is the case with the Xshot Caliber, a longer variant of the Reflex that has seen...

Nerf N Series Pinpoint Review
Somehow, I never got around to reviewing it, but the Eaglepoint was one of the hottest toys of the Elite 2.0 line overall, not just for the holidays when it was some deep discounts. This was a point...

Nerf N Series Sprinter Review
The first mag-fed N Series blaster, the Pinpoint, isn’t the sharpest tool. What a relief, then, that the second one is an insanely fun powerhouse! The Nerf N Series Sprinter is my favorite blaster of...

Adventure Force Lancer Review
I wasn’t really expecting to see a “mini” minigun on shelves, but here we are. The Adventure Force Lancer isn’t as powerful as other things on shelves, or as practical. But I’m not sure practical is...

Siren Blink Review
Siren hasn’t had the best starting run, between the ergonomics and performance issues of the Maulr (springer primary) and the Gnarl (mag-fed springer pistol). Luckily, the top blaster in the line, the...

Nerf N Series Minecraft Pillager’s Crossbow
We’ve seen a Nerf Minecraft Pillager’s Crossbow before. It wasn’t great; given the three shots, bulky and uncomfortable construction, bland attempt at being in-theme, and the price, I’m actually...

Adventure Force Desperado Review
Somehow, this review slipped through the cracks…and I couldn’t find the blaster I bought earlier in the summer. Buying another one wasn’t a concern, though. Given what $9 gets you in this blaster (a...

Adventure Force Rogue Review
As much press as Dart Zone may get for their Adventure Force entries, they’re not the only company pumping out great blasters. When it comes to regular Age 8+ blasters, Buzz Bee Toys can do just as...

Nerf Wild Wolfpack Review
The Elite dart just won’t go away! There are still a few blasters coming out of the pipeline, including those in the “Junior” line. Well, what was Nerf Jr, and is now Nerf Easy Play. In any case, we...

Zuru Xshot Blastercorn Review
I’ll be honest – I have no idea who at Zuru’s marketing team looked at their blaster line and decided that what it needed most was a unicorn. But they deserve a raise. It’s completely out of place...

Nerf Minecraft Creeper & Skeleton Mob Two Pack Review
N1, being the new Hasbro standard dart, is finding its way to various IP-themed blasters as well. Some, like the 2024 Minecraft Pillager’s Crossbow, are a great marriage of form and function. Others,...

Nerf Super Soaker Power Drench Review
New Year, New Nerf! Or at least that was my attitude finding this on store shelves prior to the spring toys turnover. Many hours of testing later, I was disappointed. In theory, I was expecting the...
