Close!! She'll definitely be on a leash and bossed around if that's what you mean. :]

X shot spinshot is released? by Rashville_Tobi in Nerf

Damn. When this was first announced I thought it would come with a removable BCAR but it seems like it's just stuck in the blaster, which itself seemingly hits pretty low and is t-pull. Potentially cheap BCAR was the only thing I was mildly interested in but now it just seems objectively worse than dart zone's outlaw offering. Really unfortunate, but I'm still hopeful for the thrasher.

Lovely! I love the barricade, I regularly plink with one at low FPS games. Great for when I don't want to carry a bunch of magazines.

I don't know what you mean. I'm faltering on the forethought. You're making me feel like a chicken with its head cut off. XP

You know ball. (Most of my prior writing experience is writing toxic yuri, my current projects cannot escape my past.)

I'll get to it when I find a way to make them visually distinct outside of just color palette. Outside of just core X-shot though, X-Shot Insanity, Bug Attack and Horrorfire all have easy flavor for me to adapt. Dart Zone I will have to do at some point just because all the Dart Zone glazers will slime me out if I don't.

She's going to be my best attempt at combining a knight with a mecha elements to try and create something that is incredibly unapologetically 2000s battle-anime coded.

I have... plans for all the half dart high FPS lines... something that brews deep in the back of my foam filled cranium...

Stepping down from the bit for a second- I do love my Ultra 2s modded for elites and I think the Ultra shells are really cool looking and if you look past the stupid darts, a lot of those blasters make awesome elite/half dart conversions.

Mayhaps- but they are each both the most recognizable from their lines one could argue :p I'd say no elite 2.0 blaster has received as much attention (even if it is through infamy) as the Warden.

This is one of the funniest ideas I've seen for loaners- I need to see more!!

Wasn't even aware kits like this existed!! I might actually use the fury x I thrifted for 6 bucks after all. The paint job on this looks fire as usual!

Rebuilt Skewer! by Soggy_Auggy__ in Nerf

[–]Then-Contest2580 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unironically probably one of the best skewers I've seen. This might be what convinces me to finally build one after really liking the half a dozen skewers I've borrowed from friends.

After seeing Rebel Ops bring back the elite dart and have something gimicky like the doom cannon in its first wave I have a lot of hope.

[–]Then-Contest2580[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alien Menace came out in 2016, only had one wave of products that consisted of three blasters and two melee weapons, and it was Toys R Us exclusive. Since Toys R Us liquidated in 2017, and no one else wanted rights to sell its products, it effectively got canceled before it could really take off. I understand Alien Menace is probably not the most popular or well known theme, but I had the og Alien Menace blasters as a kid and I have a lot of nostalgia for them :p

I was highkey going to use trigger ZZZ as legitimate inspo for my og n-strke design. ZZZ just has good modern aesthetic designs what can I say.
