Still searching for a Jolt

Hi everyone! Extremely slow week in Nerf, wow! I noticed that target.com is now selling Jolt's for $5 plus shipping.  Has anyone in the Midwest (Especially WI) found one of these in stores yet?  I'm so surprised at my findings that I've just about given up.... Happy Nerfing!

*This poll ran a little long, I know.  I apologize.  Every two weeks there should be a new poll.* This "month's" poll question was... What is your favorite Nerf line? The results: N-Strike & Vortex 4 votes each Dart Tag, N-Force, Vintage 3 votes each N-Sports, Ball Blasters, Other Lines 2 votes each I don't like Nerf... 1 vote (What?) A big thank you to all who voted.  I appreciate your readership and input. Look on the right sidebar and vote for the 2nd half of October's Nerf poll- Which new blasters are you most likley to buy? Happy Nerfing!

Sonic Series Growing

Image
Nerf announced on their Facebook page the other day a couple of new repaints for the Toys R Us exclusive series, Sonic.  Here's the complete lineup: Previously Released: Maverick Nite Finder Recon Vulcan Deploy Just Released: Barrel Break Barricade Longstrike Stampede  So what do you think?  Is Nerf making to many repaints?  I think so.  They should spend more time on new blasters, not new plastic. Happy Nerfing!

Available Somewhere: Nerf War Shelters

Image
Nerf Double Blockade, About $30 Link (UK) Blockade flipped upright. Nerf Combat Shelter, About $50 Link (UK) These are offical Nerf battle shelters, right now only available in the UK.  I like how they look but the price is a little high... Happy Nerfing!

Rumor: Nerf N-Strike Rayven CS-18

Image
Glow in the dark, clip fed, semi-auto.... Rayven CS-18! Box Stats: Semi-Auto Uses clip system Has barrel attachment compatibility Blaster uses 4 AA batteries 18 dart clip "charges" glow in the dart streamlines with 3 AAA batteries Clip goes behind trigger- I've never seen that before Approximate Price (translated from euros): $60 Of all the rumors so far- I want this one now!  Its so cool.  It looks like a miniature Stampede.  I personally love glow in the dark because I do lights out and nighttime wars.  Could the clip make other clip blasters glow in the dark, too?  Can't wait... Here's the German forum that had all the leaks... This ends the rumor string of posts, now on to released somewhere (not USA). Update : Here's another picture of this blaster- thanks to Urban Taggers. Happy Nerfing!

Rumor: Nerf Dart Tag Speedswarm

Image
Here's one we've seen before- Nerf Dart Tag Speedswarm. Box Stats: Full auto Holds 10 darts Uses 6 AA batteries Appoximite price (translated from euros): $45 Here's the post of the blaster leak itself. Interesting- but kinda ugly in my opinion. Happy Nerfing!

Rumor: Nerf Super Soaker Lightningstorm

Image
We'll kick off our montage of rumors with this: Nerf Super Soaker LightningStorm Box stats: Full Auto 1 liter drum clip (hopfully compatible with Thunderstorm and Tornado Strike) Shoots 25 feet Uses 4 AA batteries Uses "PowerSoak" technology Also comes with shield and stock  To me, it looks like a Thunderstorm but I'm sure some of this will change.  That drum looks heavy... Happy Nerfing! Update : Here's another view...

Rumors and Fact: New Nerf and Air Zone stuff

A New Blaster, for real this time!

Image
Nerf has unexpectedly put a new blaster into Kmart and TRU stores yesterday, the Jolt EX-1.  This is a micro sized  blaster- about the size of the Reflex.  They cost around $4.50-$5.  Ranges are 35-40 feet.  We'll see if I can my hands on one... Happy Nerfing!
