Rebelle Powerbell

Yay, a motorized Rebelle blaster! Anyway, heads up to basic nerf for this. This new Rebelle blaster is a repaint of the Speedswarm. But it probably has some internal upgrades, because it boasts 75 feet ranges. The blaster comes with 10 Rebelle darts and a sling and dart pouch.

It seems to be only available at Walmart. I think this is pretty cool. Stay tunes for info.

DIFFERENT VORTEX REPAINT?

What?

Yep! There you have it folks. Looks like I am the first one to post this. I am in Quebec for vacation, and I went on the official Nerf site, and I saw these. This is quite strange, the products have the same description, the Pyragon description says "comes with 40 bright orange XLR disks" even though the box art clearly shows green disks.

Anyway, when I first entered the site it said "Are you in Quebec?" and I clicked yes. It showed up in the products section instead of the normal Pyragon and Vigilon. I tried also clicking no but it still pops up.

The Vigilon looks cool but the Pyragon looks wierd. The green is to dark and is weirdly placed. Stay tuned for more info. 

What is the Best Clip?

These days lots of people are arguing about witch clip to use. So here are my opinion that will hopefully help you decide witch clip is right for you.

- 6 ROUND CLIP-

These are very common, and they only hold 6 darts. These are compact and are used in sniper rifles alot. Six  round clips can be shoved in pockets. Although the disadvantage is the extremely small capacity. Using this on a fast firing blaster is annoying. I had the first hand experience. I was fighting with my friends and I was using a Stryfe (a fast firing blaster) with five 6 dart clips on my vest. I ran out of ammo in 3 minutes.

-12 ROUND CLIP-

These are not common at all, and came out during the Nerf Elite line. They hold 12 darts and are somewhat compact. They are twice as bigger as the six round clips. The good thing about this is it looks good on many blasters. 12 rounds is pretty good, I like these clips.

-18 ROUND CLIP-

These are used a lot and are very common. They hold 18 darts (no duh...) and are very long. These make the clips stick out, and for close combat, this is a bad thing. Using these on some blasters restricts your movement. I still like these, they have a well balanced capacity.

-18 ROUND DRUM-

Same thing like the 18 round clip, except smaller. I prefer this one over the 18 round clip though they are very hard to obtain.

-25 ROUND DRUM-

These are pretty rare, but are somewhat compact and they can store an impressive 25 darts. This works well on fast firing blasters, and this clip does not restrict you of your movement.

-35 ROUND DRUM-

These babies hold a large amount of darts. They are very common on third party sellers like Ebay. These are a bit more compact then the 18 round clip. These do have some movement restrictions and are hard to carry.

Here is my list, for most favorite to least favorite.

1) 25 ROUND DRUM

2) 35 ROUND DRUM

3) 18 ROUND DRUM

4) 12 ROUND CLIP

5) 18 ROUND CLIP

6) 6 ROUND CLIP

I hoped this helped you decide what clip you want. Good luck!

Nerf Range Pak

Hey! Look a Nerf Range Pak! Apparently this is like a little box that holds 50 loose darts and 5 12 round Clips! It only costs a cheap price of 10 dollars. This looks nice and you can wear multiple of these around your belt. You could even use one of these as a drop pouch. (Thats were you put your used mags instead of dropping them to the floor) But I have a few complaints. The 12 round clips only come with 2 Nerf Blasters, the Elite Alpha Trooper and the Retailiator. Were am I supposed to get 5 12 round clips? I hope they sell them in extra packs.

Also, this little thing cannot hold 18 dart clips. It cannot close that way. That kind of sucks. Although this can hold a 25 dart drum! You can still wear a tactical vest and have this on your belt to carry a 25 dart drum. As for the 50 darts, that's pretty cool no complaints. If this comes out in the US I will get it. Even though it cannot hold 18 dart clips, it can hold a 25 dart drum and 50 bullets! So stay tuned for more info on the Range Pak.

Nerf Rough Cut?

P.S. If you do not know what Zombie Strike is, here is a link to a post about a new Nerf series called Zombie Strike Takes you to the post

P.P.S Thanks for randomshadow9 for finding this.

Now lots of Nerf Fans are complaining about the Nerf Zombie Strike line. The Nerf Zombie Strike line is supposedly the answer to legit looking Nerf HVZ gear. They have awesome cosmetics but there are certain aspects missing! For example, the Hammershot. The Hammershot no doubt is a very cool revolver. It has faux bandages around the grip, a sick color scheme, and looks awesome all around, but in HVZ, its not that good. Ranges are about 40 feet flat, and that is low compared to the Nerf Elite line. The Strongarm easily beets it, with ranges about 65 feet to 70 feet flat, and it has slam fire and can carry one more dart. I'm not saying the Hammershot is bad, but compared to the Strongarm it lacks some important aspects.

But a Hit and Miss is the Nerf Zombie Strike SledgeFire. It is really cool looking, again with faux bandages and a awesome barrel break. Its new design witch uses "Shells" is cool! It fires 3 darts at once for awesome firepower. But a problem is, when you shoot the 3 darts, one of them hits about 65 feet while the others hit about 55 feet. Not only that, but the SledgeFire takes a long time to reload and shoot again, when fighting a large crowd of zombies, this is a big mistake. The Nerf Rough Cut is a better "Shotgun Style" gun compared to this. Although arguably the SledgeFire looks cooler, the Nerf Rough Cut is a better choice. It fires 2 darts at once (and you can choose to fire one), and can slam fire. Reloading is quick and easy, and it shoots 75 feet.

The other blasters, well they are just single shot blasters. The crossbow looks cool but its single shot.

So is this the answer to the slightly under powered Zombie Strike line? The Nerf Zombie Strike Rough Cut?  Will it look awesome but still have the great fire power the original one has? Many questions, but I have high expectations. This might actually save the Zombie Strike line.
