The part that bothers me the most about this blaster is the complete lack of any sort of grip and barely any stock. I know the original gun doesn't have that pronounced of a grip, and Nerf always sells it short on the stocks, but this blaster is almost unholdable, and it looks nothing like the original prop.

Yeah the mechanism itself seems pretty rad, we just need to know how customizable and mod friendly it is now because i think the mod community can come up with great builds using this one :D

Here’s a thought, if Nerf Limited never existed, this version was probably intended to have sounds and LEDs because most of the other Star Wars blasters have sounds and lights.

Unironically, I love the $50 one much more because it fits the NERF aesthetic so much more.

Your facial expression says it all. My purchase of the collector's edition was thankfully refunded 14 weeks passed the original delivery date after a few delays/apologies. When you did your reveal, I realized how fortunate I was. Oh, and thanks also to you, I'll be ordering plain Jane from Target.😇🤓🤠😎

It says a lot about a company when their premium product lights and sounds is exactly the same as their other normal tie ins. I bought the Han Solo blaster and Qi'ra pistol on sale and they light up and sound better than this...

I’d pay £30 maximum for this. Not a penny more. £20 would be more reasonable of a price. A shame though, with some modification, could look nice as a sort of sci fi rifle.

Thanks for the review Walcom! For the record I for one am incredibly grateful for your honest and truthful thoughts on these blasters and all blaster reviews that you do! Keep up the great work! 😊

I could actually see someone buying this version of the blaster to play with. The only way the limited edition is worth the money is if your box wasn't destroyed in shipping AND you never plan on taking it out of the box AND you plan on reselling it in a few years for a premium NIB collector price. I hate that you have to devote time and energy filming and editing for products that aren't good, but I appreciate that you don't just show us the good stuff. You aren't afraid to show us the bad, warts and all.

who even wants limited things anyways if you're just gonna get the budget variant

Not defending hasbro or this blaster, i purchased the "mango mando" blaster because i wanted a "mandalorian" shaped blaster kinda like the one from the show. I knew full well the lack of performance and other issues. Thank you for your channel you da man Walcom you da man.

What do you think the odds are that in the next two years, Hasbro rolls out an Elite 2.0 or other conventional line blaster with the exact same loading mechanism and sells it for like $20?

I want to build a custom barrel for one of these. Make it look completely different. I wonder if you could modify it to take shells.

Walcom, I almost died this week. Literally, my blood pressure was so high (242/117) that I almost had a stroke and was rushed from work to the hospital. Today, I’m being discharged with many changes coming to my life. You, however, are not one of those changes. As I sit down at the cafeteria and await my ride, your channel was the first thought to turn to for a stress reliever. This video is 1:28 into the total time and I wanted to say thank you for biting the bullet for our entertainment at your expense. In all seriousness, please take care of yourself & your stress, too. Keep flinging foam, our friend!

The blaster disassembled looks cool in my opinion. I would shove a panther tank in it and make it usable

How’s that blaster you were working on the spring change and cleaning going while on the last stream?

I did a little bit of looking into the white one and what I found is kinda cool. There is a article that says that a working managing the production of the blaster. One day they got mad and decided to right the silver part of the gun with sharpy 30 made it past and was sold

The main problems with is is the stock not being more like the Winchester 1870 shotgun style stock (if you catch my drift), and the fact that the scope don't work. The stock thing customizers will fix I bet.

Thank you for buying it anyway so we can see how it works. I think if you actually want to cosplay, you can just buy a dedicated prop that doesn't have to sacrifice accuracy for functionality (firing darts) and changing colors so they don't get sued (orange barrels and whatnot). If you're a nerfer that wants a big star wars blaster that resembles a weapon from the show and you don't care about performance, this is a perfect blaster. But that's a niche I don't think anyone is in. Edit: I stand corrected.

"It's not like I enjoy being mad" I don't know about that 😂

yeah, cosplay is the main reason I would get this. and it is a shame it won't fire without the barrel cause it actually looks kinda cool sans barrel, almost like a sawed-off shotgun. basically I'm trying to find a cool looking larger blaster for my mandalorian cosplay.

The problem with the barrel is just how long it is, as dart starts to lose velocity in the barrel due to distance from the breech.

Could easily rip them off the orange one.

The extra 70 was just to pay hasbro workers to sit all day and draw the dry brushing with the sharpie

This is good for one thing. Using the stock to make an MG42 replica for Nerf if you're crazy enough.

So they waited to release it till after it got blown up in the show and still not replaced in the show timeline. Genius

You think you could make it lever action? Like gave something connected to the priming bar that pulls it back and you can pull the lever In to close it

8:20 Never expected to see Beyblades in a Walcom video, you even have some nice Takara Tomy beys. I even see Holy King Perfect Belial. Nice collection and also nice video.

Maybe in a nerf battle its ment to be used as sniper but it doesn't have enough power behind it to hit far targets. But it makes for a good spear for close fighting.

The section with the speaker grill looks shorter than on the cheaper version, are they the same overall length?

Thanks for taking one for the team on this one, yikes! Still the Orange one has that one thing going for it, no silver sharpie!!! Your outro sums it all up perfectly lol

I really like the orange one, I got one and while it is no performance blaster it is basically a musket which makes it perfectly useless for nerf battles

Do you think that taking the barrel off (moding the blaster so it can fire without it) would make atleast the fps better?

Outside of being woefully inaccurate, I never really understand Nerf's egonomics and proportions. Their blasters are simultaneously to big and cumbersome for a child to carry around, but have grips and triggers that are uncomfortable for teens and adults.

Luckily I waited this whole thing out and got the limited edition version on sale at Best Buy a few weeks ago for $55 after taxes. The collectors box for it is really cool too. I think the sale price was a great deal.

I might get that orange one. The prong blades is foam great for bayonet melee. I might try to brass the barrel and upgrade the spring in this one.

Great review! What kind of target do you use?

If it was not for Christmas, and I’m well aware that saying the blaster isn’t good is a compliment, I would have waited for the 50$ version of the mandalorian rifle. But it was for a Christmas present I bought for my brother and it was slightly on sale at the time so I didn’t end up spending 120$. But I don’t know how to make something like this myself nor have the connections to get one made probably for cheaper or at least at that price significantly better quality. I sure hope he enjoys it.

Honestly kinda into the cut down look. Someone should make a new muzzle for this.

The loading process looks smooth. If I had to get the gun it will be that part only and modify it.

Lobe your background boxes, keep growing 💗

thank you for making this video. i was considering getting this version. i will never use it for nerf so I think ill just print myself a full plaster for a prop instead

Great comparison video and can't blame you for being miffed about the price vs quality/features disparity. But I have a question: where does someone get that reactive target you're using? I'd love one of those!

WS7 Fantastic video. Your fun and enthusiastic approach over shadows the sub par blaster. Keep up the great work.

I went back and looked at the comments on the last video to see if anyone mentioned this yet, and I didn't see anything up at the top so I guess I'll point it out to any viewers who havnt seen the show or anything Now this doesn't negate the other many many faults of either of the blasters but alot of people are picking on the blaster for being a single shot breach loader, and I'm assuming that Hasbro made it that way because in the show it's a single shot breach loader In the like, 1 scene he uses it, the Mandolorian has to put single shot cartridges in it, very similar to the blaster we got. I think from a roleplay aspect, having the blaster do that is worth it, but from a play aspect, it's stupid. I'd much rather have it hold way more while maybe having the breach option available, but for anyone who would wonder why Hasbro would make a 50 (or 120) dollar single shot, it's because the source material shows it being a single shot blaster

im looking to get back into Nerf what blaster do you recommend ? let me know thanks

I was really hoping you'd put it on the Chrono and get like 95 FPS just to make the final nail in the coffin for the limited version a railroad spike.

its so weird they chose to change the front fork when they already had the mold(guess they needed a new mold to get rid of the battery tray) i do agree that the foam isn't inferior just different. but def not a $70 difference idk if I would even say it should be a $20 diffrence

Thank you for the review

I love the N64 Bomberman background music😂 my brain instantly made that connection

I love that he was using music from the Bomberman Hero OST. loved that game.

3:40 had me dying 🤣

It's pretty cool that Mandalorian fans can buy this Nerf blaster without spending ridicilous amount of money.

Hope I see them on sale, I like the profile & think you could make a nice cut-down... but not at $50...

i bought the orange one of this rifle off amazon and then i pull the pump back it fires without pulling the trigger . dose anyone know how to fix this ??

Thank you for your suffering. The version without barrel doesnt even look that bad. Maybe you could make a vid on how to mod this to get a reasonable weapon. It also gets my hopes high to get a cheap version of the Alien rifle as well. Could you do also some more general videos on the topic foam guns? Company comparison. What do the different series / lines stand for. Could you show the evolution of certain guns over time an iterations such as e.g. the strongarm

“I beat the system, Hasbro!” *Immediately, Warden flashbacks.*

They should've made it with an internal mag (m1 garand style) so it would at leas not be a jolt reskin. But 50whatever$ is just too much for what you are getting.

I might would buy this just to paint add a few bits to give it the proper look, don't really care about function, and considering what it cost to 3d print the whole thing yeah this is a better option.

So I’m not saying I like either versions of this blaster but I wonder how cool it would be when using short darts I wonder if it might hit a little better

Without the front pieces the blaster kinda resembles a hand cannon. I wonder if someone already did something similar. Cut the stock and remove but unlock the receiver, and a blocky pistol might form. I don't think it's worth it though.

Looks a tad bit bigger than the original i like it and modified it would look nice as a cosplay prop yes probably better than what i would be able to do from scratch but i would probably mod and paint it and have it mounted on my wall with a mandolorian helmet next to it

It's a 15 dollar blaster that's marked up to 50 dollars with an $120 varient that shouldn't even cost 30

The foam prongs would probably be good for last minute melee though

I have to ask, can this thing have two half darts shoved into its breach to fire both?

I love that this means there is going to be a 50$-Version of the Alien Pulse Rifle and I actually got Lucky not being able to preorder the deluxe version.

Sounds like the tangerine mando jolt is going to the chop shop for a serious tune up

I mean at least this one is closer to the the og blaster boba fete had in the Christmas special

Insert barrel to engage the locks proceed to chop barrel off brass the breach and make it a sidearm and add a scar barrel mod that thing into something interesting that packs a punch

HPA mod might be amusing. I'm not gonna try it, but would be cool to see.

The molding itself look better on the Orange one... I didn't dare risk myself after the LMTD one.

The colour scheme even looks better.

I am glad I forgone the limited version to see how this one is.

Thanks for all you do bro! Keep up the good work!

What are all these single shot rifle style blasters made for anyway? Is this a new line or something? Nerf North Vs. South series? They'd be better off making less over the top simple Nerf muskets.

I like how the stock blaster kind of looks like the force of nature from TF two

I wonder if the fittings are in there for all the electronics just because they were on the molding.

6:30 what song is that?

4:08 - It actually looks pretty cool like that... Better than completed, I would say....

I bought the limited edition, gave it a repaint then reboxed it back up in the original package and it was a nice birthday present for my son.

You could buy a whole bunch of those $50 ones, paint em, resell em pretending they're the LMTD one, and I don't think anyone would notice.

Just wanted to let you know Sir, that I'm on using the Target version of this blaster make a "to-scale-version" that works as good as it looks. If I'm successful, I may send it to you for your inspection, and review. I'm gonna make the stock outta wood...

should make a like springfield trapdoor mod outta it if it ever goes on sale and has even slightly okay internals

Thoughts on the Bob A. Feet nerf blaster?

Someone could mod this thing into a Martini-Henry. At least aesthetically.
