I wonder what the internals will be like! It looks like it could yet another reshelled Recon, but since it works like a Maverick, who knows? If it's like a Maverick I just hope it doesn't have the same bad mechanical problems.
Soooo..... Nerf decided to undermine their own products, the Recon and Maverick, and merge them to create a blaster with less ammo? Phayl... Epik Phayl.
It seems like all these new blasters are replicas of those from the video game. Question is, will they surpass our expectations or be a huge let down? I'll probably still buy it.
The Spectre REV-5 , Cool name it's just that it's a maverick with only 5 darts (not 6) which I don't get but it's merged with a recon stock and handle? Well it better have better range and accuracy than my maverick REV-6. The barrel looks cool though. I don't really have high hopes for this gun but I might be surprised
The mavericks arent that bad people, the newer ones arent as good as the old ones because they jam more...the spectra seems okay...i hope its a better stealth than the deploy
Hi I was wondering if the Spectre will come out in a clear version? Do you know? Also, will the gun ever get cheaper because I don't want to waist money.
SG Nerf, In a nerf battle, would folding stock of the spectre fit appropriately with the recon? Like as in would the spectre stock be as comfortable as the raider stock?
Well, the Spectre shoulder stock can fit on the Recon, but due to it's foldable feature it's not as rigid in terms of stability. I would say the Raider shoulder stock is more sturdy.
will this be out in SG?
ReplyDeleteEmman Shafiq,
ReplyDeleteNo news of local stock availability dates yet. Will post further updates if i find more info on it. :)

ReplyDeleteSoooo it's a Maverick with stock and barrel attachment, neat?
ReplyDeleteI think this is the gun of the 9-9-10 this or the alpha trooper cs-18 i think the stampede is not real
ReplyDeleteIt's Looks like a Maverich with a stock lol.
ReplyDeleteIs the folding stock removable?
ReplyDeleteIn case you needed a Maverick with less ammo?
ReplyDeletecool gun but about how much would it cost ?
ReplyDeleteRecon pistol + the extension barrel of this = Look alike of the MK23 SOCOM......
ReplyDeleteIt kinda looks like the Vengeance Rev 6 from the nerf game. Can't wait for it to come out.
ReplyDeletelol another box art kid that looks constipated
ReplyDeletewhen will this be out in the US?
ReplyDeleteI WANT ONE!!!
Soooo.....

If you want a 5 dart sniper, buy a BlastFire. It's semi-auto, probably shoots further, and has it's blast mode. ;)
ReplyDeleteas far as i can tell unless it shoots really far then it is inferior to anything that works on the clip system
ReplyDeleteI would by it, but only for the silencer.
ReplyDelete@SureShot if you look closely at the front and back picture, it shows that both the barrel and the stock components are removable.

ReplyDeletethe stock and barrel are awsome the gu itself not realy
ReplyDelete@Amir I don't know about that. With some spray paint, modding, and detailing, that gun has some bad*** potential.
ReplyDeleteKEWL nerf gun i want it

News Flash! Nerf has officially announced on their Facebook page that this is real and will be a walmart exclusive. It will be released in October.
ReplyDeleteDid anyone else notice the lack of plunger housing sticking out in the back like the Recon and Raider? Looks like this one will be less powerful.
ReplyDeleteI have 100% confirmation according to Nerf that this gun will be coming out in October 2010. It will be a walmart exclusive and has a folding stock.
ReplyDeleteis the silencer compatible with the longshot?
ReplyDeletematt.chopper,
ReplyDeleteYes, the Spectre's front barrel attachment is compatible with the Longshot too.

ReplyDeleteand is it out in australia?
killer,
ReplyDeleteYes, the Spectre's front barrel attachment can be attached to a Longshot (or any other attachment compatible N-Strike blaster).
I've no idea on the availability of it in Australia though, you'd just have to check at the dept stores around your area.

ReplyDeleteHi I was wondering if the Spectre will come out in a clear version?
ReplyDeleteDo you know?
Also, will the gun ever get cheaper because I don't want to waist money.
Evan,
ReplyDeleteNo news of that happening so far.
As for price, just check at your local dept stores and shop around for special store promotions or discounts.
