Nerf Challenge Review
December 12, 2019I usually review blasters and the like, not actual events. However, since Hasbro has partnered with Kilburn Live to make the Nerf Challenge event, it seemed like a good thing to write about after experiencing.
To be clear, I did have an invite to the earlier media party at the LA Nerf Challenge – I simply couldn’t make it due to my regular job. However, thanks to some really cheap overnight flights, I was able to spend a few hours experiencing the Nerf Challenge as a customer. Is it something worth flying to? Probably not; I’m just weird like that, and it’s a touring event anyway. Should you try it if it’s nearby? Possibly. It will be a fun time, but it all depends on what you’re looking for and willing to pay.

Blasterhub Holiday Giveaway – Week 4!
December 8, 2019It’s Week 4 of our holiday giveaways! And we’re going slightly sillier this week. I said it was based on the things I’d had the most fun with, after all!
As always, here are the rules:
- Please be a United States resident old enough to actually use Facebook as per their terms of service.
- Just leave a post on the corresponding Facebook Contest post!
- Two winners will be chosen at random from all comments made before 11:59pm EST on Thursday, December 12th. Winners will be promptly announced.
- I will message the winners for their contact information, put the blasters in the mail, and provide the tracking numbers.
This week, we have two Unicorn Power Poppers! They’re not the best blasters in the world, for obvious reasons. But they’re so silly and fun to use, it’s hard not to like them.
Little Tikes Makes Mighty Blasters? Who Knew?
December 6, 2019This was an odd thing to see before leaving for the weekend. It appears there are soft-shooting, oversized blasters for toddlers, courtesy of Little Tikes! They only advertise 12′ ranges. That being said…I somehow still want them, and I’m 30 years old. More below. (Website Link)
Buzz Bee Air Warriors Agitator Review
Buzz Bee has made a habit of producing inexpensive clip-fed blasters. This includes longer formats like the Agitator (or its Walmart equivalent, the Adventure Force Frantic Fury – the same thing in a slightly different shell). The Agitator makes some nice improvements over the previous Thermal Hunter and Interceptor, making for a solid stock loaner at the very least.
Clownie Nerf’s Holiday Toy Drive (Win a Perses!)
December 4, 2019My schedule is quickly stacking up, so I thought I’d highlight a fun, annual event from one of the statesmen of the classic NIC.
As per usual, Clownie Nerf is doing a toy drive, and the rules are easy.
- Don’t have to be subscribed to the Youtube channel, etc.
- Donate an unwrapped NEW IN BOX toy to a charity (not a thrift store). Each toy is an entry to win.
- Post a picture of you doing so on the Facebook Page/link (https://www.facebook.com/ClownieNerf/). Or, send it to his Instagram, or ClownieNerf@hotmail.com.
- Contest is open world wide.
There are two Perses up for grabs, if you really need the incentive! See the video below.
Holiday Giveaway, Week 3!
December 1, 2019It’s Week 3 of our holiday giveaways! And we’re going a bit larger, thanks to a sale at Target early in November!
As always, here are the rules:
- Please be a United States resident old enough to actually use Facebook as per their terms of service.
- Just leave a post on the corresponding Facebook Contest post!
- Two winners will be chosen at random from all comments made before 11:59pm EST on Thursday, December 5th. Winners will be promptly announced.
- I will message the winners for their contact information, put the blasters in the mail, and provide the tracking numbers.
This week, we have two Dart Zone Destructors! They’re stupid fun to use, with high rates of fire and dart velocity. My personal one has a printed cage and Daybreak wheels…which make it shoot to hard for HvZ, but make for fun times elsewhere.
Buzz Bee Air Warriors Mutator Review
November 28, 2019The Mutator is a blaster that held out on US entry for over a year; it was first seen at Toy Fair 2018, but started with sales in Europe. After promising sales numbers, though, it was able to make it to Target stores in the US this year. Now, it’s going to be marked down 50% for Black Friday, so what better time for a review?
The Mutator is a unique blaster, with its dual magazines and simply massive size. It’s a fun concept that, while not perfect, is plenty of fun for the right price.
