Short Darts in the Nerf Galactic Commander? Mod in Progress!
February 24, 2026I’m waiting on a few more electronic parts to show up – I need a voltage regulator so I don’t fry the select-fire board – but we’re making the Galactic Commander fire short darts before it disappears from shelves completely!
There were already files online for modifying the Nerf N Series Sprinter (from Lucian on Printables and from NyteRyder101 on Thingiverse), which included magazine adapters, cages, and dart guides. I had to remix one of the dart guides to fit the Galactic Commander, as well as designing a new pusher. Beyond that, though, the existing cages and mag adapters already work!
I’ve put the new files online at Thingiverse, with more to come later if needed.
Let’s see if I can get this done before games this weekend!
Toy Fair 2026 – Final Thoughts and Musings
February 17, 2026To wrap up the coverage of Toy Fair, I thought I’d make a post with random musings on the event. I had conversations with toy reps, with other influencers, and most importantly, friends. I also got to have a fun weekend with the wife; it was Valentine’s Day weekend, after all!
So, let’s get to the musings!
Toy Fair Addendum: Nerf Press Release Bits!
Toy Fair 2026 MegaPost! Nerf, Dart Zone, and More!
February 14, 2026It’s finally here! Toy Fair 2026 is happening, and I have a massive amount of experiences to share. I’ll also have a short clip video at some point…but one thing at a time. Let’s just jump into things!
Expect me to just update this page as I go until further notice. There’s a lot to cover while I jump between battery charges and locations.
Nerf Rebel Ops and More Announced!

Holiday Sales, and Xshot Leaks? Blaster New Before Toy Fair!
February 11, 2026I was originally just going to make a small post about the state of the market…but then Zuru had to share a story online that had boxes hidden behind people! Blame their social media.
Let’s cover that, then go back to the bits on market share. Besides, a new mag-in-grip flywheel blaster and an Xshot Longshot upgrade are more exciting!
I’m Off to Toy Fair!
February 4, 2026It’s finally official! I’ll be at Toy Fair, at least per a recent email.
Admittedly, it would appear that qualifying this late is a matter of me needing to update with the times. That’s a story for later. But in the meantime, I’ll be in NY for the event…at least part of the time. Having Toy Fair on Valentine’s Day weekend means I still need to budget time with my wife, after all!
Hopefully we see some fun things from Hasbro, Dart Zone, and anyone else who shows up for the fair!
