Getting that motordrive spinning up and popping out those first few darts is a deeply satisfying experience.

Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places. The NERF Mega line has produced some quality blasters and the Mastodon is one of, if not the best they have. The difference is the grip needed because of the accelerator trigger setup on the Mastodon versus the push button on the RhinoFire and the traditional trigger on the Vulcan.The Mega Mastodon is a Nerf blaster that was released in fall of 2016 under the N-Strike Mega series. The blaster is designed by the well-known brand NERF, ensuring top-quality and guaranteed hours of entertainment. Not only are they expensive, but they’re not the type of batteries that you’re likely to have just lying around in a drawer – especially not six of them. It turned me into a big(ger) moving target, cut my mobility a bit, and made aiming a bit of a challenge, but the range, the capacity, the full auto, and the aggro (people made sure to keep an eye on where I was, or if they heard my motors whirring to make sure I wasn’t near them) was worth the tradeoff for me, and gosh darnit I just had a lot of fun with it!

There are two strap points, one in front of the top tactical rail and one at the end of the blaster, which the packaged shoulder strap can be clipped onto. If you're running a script or application, please register or sign in with your developer credentials here. The motorized Mastodon promises a totally different experience, from the way you load it to the way you fire it. The top handle moves back and forth, pivoting on the insertion point for the post it is attached to. I went with the righty oriented handle placement with the pivot on the left side of the blaster, and I’m not sure if the peg to the top handle fits in the other way.I got an average velocity of about 76 feet per second which is higher than other mega blasters and Elites, so you know it shoots harder and further. Needless to say, the Mastodon needs 6 D batteries to run so the strap and using the top handle might be a necessity. There is something steampunk about the way it feels and fires – the scale of it is like some Victorian engineering and the MEGA darts make a very satisfying noise when they hit. Das einzige PROBLEM was ich bei Inbetriebnahme hatte: Das Betteriefach ist mit zwei Schrauben gesichert, von denen eine so tief versenkt ist, das man mit einem herkömmlichen Bit-Schraubendreher nicht heran kommt. My left-handed friend didn’t find it supremely comfortable trying to use the Mastodon the right-hand oriented way, though.

This copy is intended as placeholder text only and is not representative of individual items in the line.Of all the high-end items I saw at Toy Fair, this was definitely a “buzz-worthy” blaster in my book, and the one I came away wanting the most of the whole lineup from that trip. Trying to aim the Mastodon well while in full sprint was not the particularly efficient I thought or effective.
