New Zombie Strike Clear Shot Appears Online, Is Actually Another Reshelled & Repainted Blaster

Thanks to the German/Dutch fan site dartblaster.de, we have an overview video and heads up on a new Zombie Strike blaster called the Clear Shot. It’s a reshell/repaint of the 2009 Dart Tag Stormfire. It also features a similar scope similar to the one on the Super Soaker Shot Blast. The reviewer also mentions that by looking at the internals, it seems that it doesn’t get Elite Ranges. A bit of a shame that Elite Ranges still aren’t the standard for some blasters.

Also looking at the box art, their’s a Target Exclusive design on it, so USA people should expect this to be a Target Exclusive.

You can view some photos of the blaster here.

The box art for the upcoming newly repainted Mega Zombie Strike Magnus Pack

Thanks to Target web listings once again, we have a heads up on 3 newly revealed items. The first, as you can see, is a Zombie Strike Magnus Pack. It retails for $29.99 at Target and features new Zombie Strike Mega Darts. Product descriptions and web listings for the items can be found in this post. Once again, this info is about the USA Target’s only, no clue when or if any other countries are getting this.

The Magnus gets a slightly darker red repaint for one of the blasters, and a sort of dark turquoise for the other.

If you’ll notice in the product description for these darts, the Mega Magnus Pack, and the Zombie Strike Longshot CS-12, their advertising something called “ZED Squad”, which I assume is a way to get kids and peopel to play with each other. These darts, as well as the ones shown in the Longshot CS-12 box art, feature syringe style darts which seems to be the cure for zombies. This retails for $9.99 on the Target site.

And lastly, we have the new Elite Precision Target Set. It looks and seems to serve a similar function to the Rebelle Star Shot that was released late last year/early this year. Looking at the darts, it seems that we won’t be getting Elite Darts. This retails for $19.99 on the Target site.

New Zombie Strike Z-Bat Spotted Online & In Target

Photo thanks to Reddit

Thanks to the Nerf Sub-Reddit, we now have the heads up on a new Nerf item, the Z-Bat made by Perpetual Play Group. It’s being sold on Amazon by a 3rd party seller for $34.99. However, thanks to theNerfJoker and his video below, he revealed in the comments that he got his at a Target in the USA for $14.99 plus tax. You can see his overview of it below.

There still aren’t too many details on it that are known, such as durability and how solid it is. However it is about the length of the Zombie strike Machete.

Nerf Zombie Strike Crossfire Bow Unboxing & Firing Test

Here’s my unboxing video, and the first one on the internet, of the Nerf Zombie Strike Crossfire Bow. I also give off a small firing test which starts at 2:30 in the video.

It’s a nice feeling and looking blaster. Paintjob was good and plastic seems good as well. It also features the “Smart AR Sensor” similar to the Rough Cut.

Stay tuned to my Youtube channel and blog for more coverage of this in the next couple of days.

Elite Suction Darts Listing Goes Up On Target Website

elitesuctionCapture

It looks like our latest Elite Suction Dart rumor gets solid clarity now. The Target USA website has very recently put up a listing for Elite Suction Darts. Or as the site calls them, “Elite Universal Suction Darts”. The 30 pack costs $9.99, just like a 30 pack of normal Elite Darts. At the moment, it currently isn’t available to buy online nor in stores.

With the listing appearing now, it seems like we’ll be getting these much sooner then the March 20, 2014 date that was listed in the Japan Toys R Us site. I speculate that the USA might possibly be getting these in the Winter in time for the holidays, in sort of the same vein as the upcoming Zombie Strike Crossfire Bow, Sidestrike, and Mega Magnus blaster.

I’m also starting to wonder now, will stores be selling these in a 75 pack as well?

You can check the rest of the post to see the listed production description and images they put up.

Once again, it seems like Nerf is releasing new products in time for the holidays, and these blasters are their release choices. You can do a store check on these sites in order to see what stores have them. Many in my location don’t have them yet though.

The Magnus blaster has also been spotted in some areas on the East Coast in the USA as well.
Check the rest of the post for Target product shots and product descriptions of the Sidestrike and Crossfire.

White Elite Rough Cut Explained, while possible New Red/Orange Elite Stryfe Spotted

The newly spotted “Red” Stryfe, alongside the other recently leaked White Rough Cut.

Recently, a possible new Red Stryfe has been spotted on Baidu. The quality of the photo isn’t the best though, and many are questioning the possible color of this leaked photo. The photo seems to give off a Red/Pink color scheme, but again the photo is on the grainy side. I’m personally thinking that the Stryfe could be an orange color, and that the concentrated amount of it, as well as the low light, is giving the camera a deceiving look. The orange on the White Elite Rough Cut is looking like Red/Pink as well in some areas. This is the main reason as to why I think this newly seen Stryfe is an Orange color.

It also seems like we’ve gotten a bit of official confirmation from Hasbro Australia that the White Rough Cut will be a Target exclusive in Australia. It will “most likely” be a Target USA Exclusive as well.

New Nerf Zombie Strike Blaster Sleeve & Utility Pouch Accessories spotted on Ebay

The product shot for the upcoming Zombie Strike Blaster Sleeve

An Ebay seller by the username of c_wilson_81 recently put up listings for two new Zombie Strike items, the Blaster Sleeve for $75 USD, which is pictured above. And also the Utility Pouch for $60 USD.

$(KGrHqJHJE0FIset6,QbBSLn8nHUKg~~60_57

The Zombie Strike Utility Pouch seems like a slight re-design/re-color of that P.A.K pouch that was spotted in Targer. Both of these new products seem like a Target exclusive for the moment, since no other stores sell Zombie Strike things at the moment.

Check the rest of the post for a few more images of the Blaster Sleeve and Utility Pouch.

New Buzz Bee Buccaneer & Gladiator swords spotted at Target

20130803_105337 - Copy
On the top, the Buccaneer sword, while the Gladiator sword is at the bottom. Photo thanks to Bay Area Nerf

Josh and Shawn over at Bay Area Nerf were doing some DCPI Target hunting, and recently found a vague listing for “Foam Swords” under DPCI 087-11-0346 for $9.99, although in the post they mention it as saying it was $9.99 each. When pulled from the back, that’s what they got above. More from their post below in relations to length and foam quality.

Each sword measures in at roughly 2 feet from pommel to point, with the blades coming in a little under 19 inches. The “blades” are thinner than most of the melee offerings from Nerf (although we haven’t been able to check out the new Zombie Strike Machete). The handles are only meant for one handed use, but aren’t so small that those with bigger hands will find the grip too short. The swords themselves feel fairly sturdy, and with the foam being more dense than some of Hasbro’s melee alternatives, they may last a bit longer than their competitor. Hopefully field test will yield more conclusive results, specifically against some zombie hordes.

Some of the people I play Nerf with like melee combat, so I’m sure that they’ll be liking these new swords. Check the Bay Area Nerf post for more photos and info.
