Remember back in the 80′s when NERF toys were new, cool and for the most part just weird looking fluorescent colored toys that fired foam balls and darts with zero accuracy and control?
I’m talking about things like the Blast-A-Ball and the Bow-And-Arrow (I can still hear the music from that commercial in my head).
If you don’t for some reason, these pictures should help give you some sort of perspective on the evolution of this toy.
So here’s NERF back in the 80′s….
Probably the oddest toy in the NERF arsenal.
Well, fast forward to 2010 and you’ll see a whole new NERF. I never would’ve anticipated that the brand would’ve evolved to what is today, but thanks to a post on Uncrate.com I’ve come to find out that NERF has unleashed upon the world the NERF-N-Strike Longstrike CS-6 Dart Blaster. (Say that 3 times fast, right!)
This thing is crazy. Not only does it shoot foam darts up to 35 feet (what do you need to shoot with a foam dart 35 feet away?), according to NERF even when your target is a moving one:
“You never have to worry about ammo, since your blaster can store two quick-reload clips. (One clip is included.) So grab your gear, steel your nerves and prepare to go long.”
I’ve never been in a position where I had to steel my nerves, but I’m tempted to buy one of these just to see what the experience is like.
Mostly though, I have to say that I am a bit worried as there are a few people here at HyperQuake that are big fans of the NERF line. I have no idea what might be lurking around the corner in the future, but I’m going to make sure I try to stay upwards of 36 feet away from a few people in particular.
