Blaster Hub Supports Post/Page/Forum Embedding!
December 10, 2015As you may be aware, Blaster Hub is running on WordPress, and there has been a recent update allowing for easy embedding of posts! We jumped right on it, as another way to share our content with the world! This is a great feature, since other WordPress users can embed the post, just by copy/pasting the URL into their own site, but if you are not a WordPress user, there is still an embed code that can be used on any site. To make things better, it even comes with a generated script to re-size your embed for whatever content is display, and at any size it needs to fit into. Want to start embedding? Click the Share button in the top right corner of this page, then select “Embed Post” from the drop-down list. A list with both embed options listed here will then pop up for you. To get to that menu quick, click here. Embedding works great for any posts, a page of content, and even in the forums! What are you waiting for, start sharing the fun!
Note: If you do NOT see the embed option in the menu, it would appear that you are on a page that does not support embedding. Make sure you actually on the post page itself, and not a list of multiple posts.
Review: Nerf Rebelle Sweet Revenge (20m Aus grey trigger)
December 3, 2015One of the biggest developments of 2013 was Nerf releasing hammer-action blasters, the Hammershot and Sweet Revenge. Prior to these, there were very few one-handable pistol sized blasters, and those usually had several flaws. I immediately liked what I saw with the Sweet Revenge, and bought it as soon as it became available here in Australia.

Review: Nerf Doomlands Lawbringer
December 1, 2015In the Doomlands, there is only one lawbringer!
A target exclusive, the Nerf Doomlands Lawbringer is one of the newer items, making it’s appearance in late 2015. Essentially, the blaster feels like an over-sized hammershot, which is great for it’s feel and aesthetic overall! It works well for close combat, and is a nice addition to the Doomlands line if you are looking for options, however it has a lot it still needs to offer when it comes to practicality. The Lawbringer is very sturdily made, and will catch the eye of your targets, however the biggest concern is that of the price. Regardless, I wanted to give it a go, as the Doomlands style gives off a great first impression, and knows how to make a statement with it’s appearance.
From Nerf:
Bring justice to a doomed world with the Lawbringer blaster! This powerful blaster fires 12 darts without reloading from the rotating barrel with hammer-action blasting. Load up your darts from the storage capsules on the stock and drop the hammer as you let each one fly! You’ll be the fiercest protector on the battlefield with the Lawbringer blaster!

- Includes 12 darts
- 12-dart rotating barrel

Review: Buzz Bee Ultra Tek 8 (Champion) [15m Aus]
November 29, 2015Buzz Bee’s new Ultra Tek line brought many things, but the most significant is their adoption of a clip (mag) system. The Ultra Tek 8/Champion is the smallest of these new blasters. The combination of a clip (mag) system and Elite-competitive performance allows Buzz Bee to properly challenge and compete with Nerf.
Everything with the UT8/Champion
Disclosure: The Ultra Tek 8 was sent to me by Buzz Bee for review, so thanks to them for their contribution. As usual, their contribution will not bias the review in any way.
Review: Nerf Elite Retaliator (15m Aus grey trigger)
November 27, 2015The Retaliator was one of the first Elite blasters released in late 2012, a redesign of the popular (but old and obsolete) N-Strike Recon CS-6. Even today it remains quite a popular and recommended blaster. 3 years on from release, I’ll look at why the Retaliator is still such a good seller.

Welcome to Blaster Hub
November 23, 2015
Welcome to Blaster Hub, we are a new site with big goals! As a team of Nerf fans and enthusiasts from around the world, it is our goal to provide the most up-to-date news and updates. Our team of fans come with all sorts of experiences, backgrounds, and interests, making our opinions open, and unique. We are fans of the blaster community, and have primarily gotten our start by joining with other fans doing the things we love most, playing. We often sit down and fairly review our blaster collect, but at the same time we don’t take ourselves too seriously, and know how to have a good time and make the most of our hobby.
The Blaster Hub Community
Another area where we feel there could be more, much more in the realm of building the community, and getting involved is through a community forum. We want all to be able to participate through an open forum in which users can post about their interests, and join in with the excitement happening here at Blaster Hub. Head over there now and let us know what you think, tell us about your favorite blasters, or even how you plan to modify them. We look forward to seeing you there!

Buzz Bee Air Warriors Sidewinder Review
October 5, 2014The Buzz Bee Sidewinder is a formidable-looking blaster. With its massive 30 dart drum, it has the kind of presence that would give an adversary pause. It also has the potential to be a really solid performer, but is handicapped by the manufacturer in such an odd way that we didn’t quite know how to review it. Do we review the blaster as it was sent to us (and as it appears on store shelves), or do we review it the way it should be used? Perhaps we’ll do a little of both.
