Yeah, at the moment, the 2 fully automatic nerf blasters are the Vulcan and MagStrike.

The Vulcan was only launched a few months ago, so hopefully this should point towards more fully automatic models.

I'm really looking forward to next years new Nerf models, like the Raider and Spartan. smile.gif

Which online shop is selling nerf longshots for RM140? Please share the link! Thx.

Me and my friends in sg have been ordering our longshots from amazon.com and hasbrotoyshop.com, and the total cost per unit incl. usa-sg shipping ends up around S$95-S$100 (or RM230+!) each! blink.gif

Cool... RM140 should be the right local shop pricing for a longshot. The only question is whether e-toyz gets their stock from Hasbro M'sia soon (same issue i'm facing with Hasbro Sg too). I'll be keen to drive over and buy a few once they are avaliable.

Yup, if you guys have read about or played the new Nerf N-Strike game on Nintendo Wii, it showcases alot of new Nerf blasters. Most are just concepts, but the developers mentioned that a few are actually slated for future production (some screenshots from the game):

There has been alot of discussion on the various nerf forums, and in particular, the Raider and Spartan were models rumoured to be most likely confirmed for production (based on possible active mechanisms):

Nerf Raider CS-6
- Pump action blaster, 6-round clip (side mounted magazine, ie. STEN SMG-style)

user posted image

Nerf Spartan NCS-12
- Bolt action blaster, one cock = 3 shot bursts (notice the ratchet gear system in the stock), 12-round clip.

Hopefully, interesting new models like these will get introduced soon! smile.gif

Click Here for Recall Form

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in cooperation with the firm named below, today announced a voluntary recall of the following consumer product.

Name of Product: Nerf™ N-Strike Recon Blasters

Units: About 330,000 units

Manufacturer: Hasbro Inc., of Pawtucket, R.I.

Hazard: The blaster’s plunger can pull the user’s skin during firing of the toy blaster resulting in injury to the face, neck, and/or chest.

Incidents/Injuries: Hasbro and CPSC have received 46 reports of injury to children aged 4 to 12, resulting in bruising, abrasions, pinching/pinch marks, blood blisters and welts.

Description: This recall involves the Nerf N-Strike Recon CS-6 Blasters for children age 6 and up. The toy blaster is yellow with a black handle and orange plunger, trigger, and reload clip. The word “NERF” in black lettering is on both sides of the blaster and the word “ARMED” is indented on the orange plunger. “RECON CS-6” is on the gray cocking mechanism. There are five interchangeable parts including the shoulder stock, the flip-up sight, barrel extension, quick re-load clip and dual-mode light beam. Model number 63552 and UPC codes 653569272021 and 653569311218 can be found on the packaging. Only blasters with an exposed orange plunger are included in this recall.

Yeah, i saw that recall too. It affects those first-gen Recons which have the exposed orange-coloured air plunger which were sold last year in the States. They have since added a black plastic cap at the back of the air plunger for this year's units.

Anyways, the ones we buy locally are all the "face-lifted" versions with the black cap. smile.gif
