Blaster Database is up

I decided to make a sort of library of all dart blasters produced, ever. This should help people who want good information on some blasters quite a bit. It's still a work in progress so expect constant updates until it's complete. Link is at the top. Hope you enjoy.

Nerf Secret Shot II Review (4.5)

Remember when I promised I was out of ammo Sully? I lied.
I decided to redo this whole review since I got my new camera and I figured I may as well do it in high quality. So here we have two Secret Shot IIs, one of Nerf's few air powered pistols and the awesome successor to a classic, the original Secret Shot. Lets see how this old school hand cannon holds up to modern day standards.

Nerf Mad Hornet Review (4)

Come get stung.
It's been a while since I last reviewed a blaster and this one is one of the coolest yet. This is the 1997 Nerf Mad Hornet, a blaster that I've overlooked for quite some time now. Let's take a closer look and hope this thing doesn't try to sting me.

Heavily Modified SuperMAXX 5000

Its...its...too EPIC.
Well guys, I've done and broke my back to get this one finished and to say the least, holy cow, I was not expecting this. I spent the first three days of my Spring Break painting this behemoth and I honestly can't believe how good it turned out. To put it this way, I always wanted a SuperTech 9000, so I built it myself. I put on a Raider stock that's still fully adjustable and a Longshot scope for looks. I also got around to covering up the exposed brass barrel with a cosmetic one made of PVC and I also did some shell work to make the brass breach action much smoother. Last thing I did was paint this thing pretty much in it's stock colors and the scheme just looks absolutely awesome. This is the coolest blaster I've built to date and I'd say its up there with some of the nicest SM5ks out there. See more of it after the jump.

New Capture Card and Camera!

Welcome to the big leagues.
Oh dear, we got more stuff coming in. If you read my last post, I finally got a tripod, I just didn't have a camera worthy of it. So luckily one one of my hunting trips on eBay, I snagged this practically new Sony CyberShot DSC-H200 camera for $130 bucks. It's a 20.1 megapixel camera which is DOUBLE what my old Kodak V1073 had. I also got an Elgato Game Capture HD for $120 which is this high end capture card that I will be using for gaming videos. Unfortunately I' won't be utilizing all this gear right away until I get all this stuff I have sitting around posted eventually. Spring Break is next week so hopefully the wait won't be long.

More Nerf SuperMAXX 5000 Mods

Partially assembled next to the Hyperion.
I recently decided to go all out on my SM5k. The blaster already performs where I want it to so I decided to add a couple more mods that would improve it's functionality and looks. I'm trying to base this off off the SuperTech 9000 so I decided to put a Raider stock on it using the same design athanie went with on his 5k and I tossed a Longshot scope on top. Afterwards, I put a cosmetic barrel over the exposed brass and even though it isn't glued together or painted yet, it still looks mean as hell and I can't imagine how the final product will turn out.
