Nerf Big Bad Bow - Review!

Still miss the classic 1990s Nerf Bow N Arrow?

Perhaps you could try the new version instead, the Nerf Big Bad Bow!

The Big Bad Bow (BBB) has a familiar bow style, but this time in a compound bow design with pulleys and such (these pulleys and strings are only cosmetic, they don't aid in the firing mechanism).

The package comes with 3 x Nerf Foam Arrows. There are 2 attachment holders on the BBB to mount the spare foam arrows on standby.

To fire, just pull back the rear handle and this action will prime its spring plunger mechanism. Once primed, load a foam arrow and you can shoot it like a normal blaster via the trigger.

The firing range is around 30+ ft, similiar to a Nerf Longshot or Recon.

Nerf Longshot CS-6 (Yellow) - Review!

Nerf has introduced an update for the Nerf Longshot CS-6!

The new Nerf Longshot now comes in a Yellow paint scheme. Mechanically it still operates via the same bolt action magazine-fed firing system.

The main improvement is the new color consistency with the rest of the N-Strike blaster range, especially when swapping the interchangeable blaster components between Nerf Longshots and Nerf Recons.

Note: The new Nerf Longshot (yellow version) comes packaged with only 1 x 6-dart magazine (additional magazines are sold separately).

Review of the Blue Nerf Longshot Here.
