You know what they say, a wounded animal who is cornered as its most dangerous, and some folks out there are willing to cut off the nose to spite the face. When you have run out of options in a NERF fight, there is still hope to take down everyone else around you – regardless of whether they are friends or allies, and you can do so with the $99.99 NERF Nuke which will definitely be regarded as the BFG of the NERF world the next time you sit around a campfire and regale one another with war stories of your NERF exploits.
The NERF Nuke will be able to deliver what we like to call “mutually-assured NERF destruction”, as this functions as the NERF weapon to end all NERF wars. In fact, the NERF Nuke works this way – it will be able to shoot 80 NERF darts in every direction, where you can opt to hold it up in the air as a “grenade”, throw it up in the general direction of the enemy, or to make use of the included high-powered launcher, the choice is yours. These NERF darts will be sent speeding all over the place at a range of up to 30 feet, now how about that? Happy April Fool’s!

Robots and Nerf, two toys that are the staple of every child’s messy bedroom floor, are finally coming together in what could be one of the best (and safest) ways to harass your siblings, parents, and even co-workers. Because Hasbro’s new Combat Creatures let you remotely unleash a barrage of foam darts from a safe distance.

Are kids bigger little scamps these days or are they just leaving more evidence? Unclear, but they sure have cooler toys, among which they can soon count Nerf’s new N-Strike Elite Cam ECS-12 Blaster, a crazy gun that records and plays back your target practice right on the crosshairs—and leaves plenty for the mounting evidence pile.

For those of you who have played First Person Shooters (FPS) games in the past, you would know that all titles have the biggest and baddest weapon, although it would normally be somewhere in the middle of the game before you attain such an addition to your deadly arsenal. The thing is, the fire rate is most probably the slowest of the lot, and it will take a truckload of ammo to use, which means you would use it sparingly – or in extremely dire situations where there is a bunch of enemies bearing down on you with no way out. You might feel the same at the office, so to ensure that you never fall on the losing side of a Nerf fight ever again, this is where the $59.99 NERF N-Strike Elite Centurion Mega Blaster comes in handy.
The NERF N-Strike Elite Centurion Mega Blaster is proud to be the farthest shooting Nerf gun ever made, where it does not shoot regular Nerf darts, but rather, fires out Mega Darts which happen to be twice the size of a regular Nerf Dart, at distances of up to 100 feet. I am quite sure that if you pull this out from your drawer, you will be the first person someone calls you out be on their team, turning you from social pariah to most coveted team member at the office (or playground).

We think it’s safe to say Borderlands 2 has a lot of guns. The game probably has more guns than you can shake a stick at, especially if you’re the world champion stick shaker. But one Redditor decided he and a friend would take some Nerf guns and tweak them a bit to look exactly like guns you’d find in Borderlands 2. The result of their work is amazing, although you probably could have guessed that much since they’re being featured in a story.
Redditor DrBreakMD published photos of four Borderlands 2-inspired weapons, which were created for his “end of high school celebration.” The process of creating these four guns required him to disassembled each gun, sand the Nerf logo off of them and applied different coats of pain to each one. DrBreakMD also used dry brushing to help give each gun a more dirty, rugged look. (more…)

If there is one thing I indulge in once in a while, it would be the purchase and fooling around with Nerf guns. There’s just something incredibly satisfying about firing them off at your window, at friends, and sometimes even family! Anyway we’ve come across Nerf gun modifications before, but it looks like this particular modder, an Australian girl who goes by the handle Nerfenstein, has taken a Nerf gun and modded it into a guitar! Unfortunately the guitar does not actually play, but it looks pretty awesome and according to Nerfenstein, it will fire off rounds so you can only imagine how much cooler this would be if the guitar actually played. Sort of similar to the pyrotechnics rock bands would pull off back in the day, albeit safer.
According to Nerfenstein, this Nerf gun was made from a Nerf Rayven and was painted red, given a guitar neck where the tuning pegs are actually made from spent gun casings. The key sections are made from paint tube squeezers, so we have to give her props for her creativity. She has even named the gun/guitar NerFender, a nod to the Nerf gun and the Fender electric guitar. It’s pretty cool so head on over to Girly Gamer if you want to read more or see additional photos.
