  2. Weird! I guess they hadn't got their money's worth out of the yellow plastic shipment...

    ReplyDelete
  3. But I thought that blue longshots are no longer to be created? If it's a limited restock, will the longshots be extinct in the malls? Or is it just in Singapore?

    ReplyDelete
  4. Perhaps it's due to the release of it in the UK? In the US, the Longshot was on clearance/on it's way out to the point where I don't think they're depleted of their remaining stock. Get 'em while you can, Singapore!

    ReplyDelete
  5. not to mention they recently announced on facebook that they were bringing the longshot to the UK

    The photo and description indicate Yellow Longshots... not Blue versions.

  10. Do you think that longshot shoots farther then longstrike? A review on youtube said that long shot is better.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Java Programmer,

    Stock range for both blasters are around the same, +/- a few feet.

    Its only after being modded that the Longshot has much greater range (due to its larger direct plunger volume) compared to a similarly modded Longstrike (which has a much smaller plunger).

  12. Hi SG Nerf, do you have any information for Canada about if we are going to get Longshots for say... Boxing Day?

    ReplyDelete
  13. SuperShadowPikachu,

    I've no idea of the Nerf stock availability for Canada, I'm situated in Singapore.

    Perhaps you can just check with the dept stores around your area.

  14. I found 2 beat-up Longshots in Walmart, simply marked as "Nerf Gun" and for only USD$15. Thought they just had a couple in their warehouses leftover. But maybe not.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Are these available in Toys R Us? Cos I can't go all the way to Paragon. Thank you.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Jason Snafu Yap,

    So far, Longshots haven't been spotted at local Toys R Us outlets yet. I guess you could check with the staff at the outlet near your area on when they are expecting to have Longshots in stock.

  17. why dont u post blue longshot.it is better than this yellow longshot.

    ReplyDelete
  18. i think blue longshot is good because i buy inside got 12darts and 2 clip,but yellow longshot buy inside got 6darts and 1 clip only.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Eric,

    Blue Longshots have been sold out since last year and are not available in stores anymore.

    Only the Yellow Longshots are back in stock in local stores... until stocks last though.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Thank you SG Nerf! I got the Longshot at Paragon. There are at least another 8 boxes left after buying it. But I do have some problems putting the trigger into the front barrel.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Jason Snafu Yap,

    To attach on the front blaster trigger handle component, you'll need to apply more strength to snap it into the front blaster.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Hey Pvt Ryan here! just need to ask, are these new longshots weaker than the previous batch?
    ( Previous as in referring to the stock from January onwards )
    I noticed these new longshots have seemingly have pretty weak springs ( explains why they are easy to prime ) When I went for the EOY recently, I managed to test out some stock longshots there and got very similar results : Weak springs. I had ordered a longshot from the 'States a while back in June this year and had noticed it had a spring of pretty good strength( try imagining a strong stock spring that doesn't break your bolt sled, thats how mine was ) I know there are manufacturing variations with each batch of guns produced but I have a few friends with older longshots that have the same spring tensity of mine. Yeah its possible we got some over-powered lemon units here but I'm a bit curious :)

    ReplyDelete
  23. o...thx.
    then whr can buy blue longshot?

    ReplyDelete
  24. Ryan =],

    Well, i've owned and tested dozens of stock Longshots manufactured over the past few years (both blue and yellow versions) and they all seem to have the same spring load. So i guess its probably just some manufacturing variations for certain batches.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Eric,

    Blue Longshots have been sold out in dept stores a long time ago, they are no longer available in stores.

    The only way to get Blue Longshots nowadays is to order from existing owners on auction sites like eBay or at the various Nerf forums trading sections.

    ReplyDelete
  26. wanna-be,

    If you are in Singapore and want a Longshot, better get one now while stocks last.

    ReplyDelete
  27. thats not what I meant, I mwas asking wheather nerf manufacture longshots(of any colour) anymore.

    ReplyDelete
  28. ok...thx
    can i know whr can buy blue longshot at malaysia,because i am in malaysia now.

    ReplyDelete
  29. wanna-be,

    Well, various industry sources have hinted that they are currently out-of-production, so it looks like they will be getting more and more rare as time goes by.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Eric,

    I've not heard of anymore Blue Longshots available at stores in M'sia either.

    Nowadays, Blue Longshots are very rarely seen (if ever) on any dept store shelves around the world. They were replaced by the newer Yellow Longshot a while back.

    ReplyDelete
  31. why so many people like blue longshot?and yellow longshot just a bit people like only?

    ReplyDelete
  32. do you think i can reserve blue longshot at other country?

    ReplyDelete
  33. Eric,

    I guess people like Blue Longshots because they are in Blue colour? At least thats why i like them. :)

    Whether you can even find a brand new Blue Longshot in other countries depends on your luck, you'll have to search around.

    ReplyDelete
  34. sgnerf,wat place do you think more blue longshot?

    ReplyDelete
  35. I just got my longshot as a Christmas Present. I bought mine at Toys R Us Suntec. Theres quite alot of them so it shouldnt run out of stock for awhile.

    Merry Christmas everyone!

    ReplyDelete
  36. Eric,

    I have no idea where you can get a brand new Blue Longshot nowadays, as far as i know, they have not been spotted at dept stores for a long time.

    Your best bet is to buy over from existing owners of Blue Longshots who are willing to sell their units.

    ReplyDelete
  37. How much do the re stocked longshots cost? And vulcans in india cost 1200 rupees (that's about 35 SGD$)

    ReplyDelete
  38. what a waste! i went to the TRU at paragon and bought an element but didn't go down to metro a few storeys below it. which scope is better? the longshot one or element one? can the longshot one zoom?

    ReplyDelete
  39. try ebay, search longshot blue, and you will find one, I did (it was new in box)

    ReplyDelete
  40. SRSR333,

    Same as before, retail price is SGD$79.90.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Adil,

    Both the Longshot and Element scopes are just hollow plastic tubes, no magnification function, they are just mainly for display purposes.

    ReplyDelete
  42. why blue longshot so difficult to find?

    some people say can try ebay,can it work?

    ReplyDelete
  43. u think i can buy blue longshot at toy r us in malaysia or not?

    ReplyDelete
  44. Eric,

    Blue Longshots are the old models, they are out-of-production.

    From what i've heard, Blue Longshots are also all sold out and no longer available in M'sia dept stores for quite a while already.

    ReplyDelete
  45. o....i wish can find blue longshot.

    ReplyDelete
  46. To my knowledge, Yellow Longshots are out of production as well. The stock is just remaining stock and after it's gone, it'll be gone forever.

    They will never make Clear Longshots because the clear series is fairly new and I beleive it was introduced after the Longshot went out of production.

    I think a clear LS would be legendary, but I can only dream..

    ReplyDelete
  47. hey people i saw ONE blue longshot at a shopping centre near the federal hotel at malaysia,but i think it is sold out already

    ReplyDelete
  48. sgnerf, if i try ebay, i need to search wat and choose which one?

    can i easy find recon cs 6 in m'sia?

    ReplyDelete
  49. Eric,

    Just type in the name of whatever blaster you want to find at the eBay search box... and please stop asking all these silly questions.

    Yes, Nerf Recons should still be easy to find in M'sia stores.

    ReplyDelete
  50. i go hasbro.com and i just know is that have a tactical scope can zoom in?

    ReplyDelete
  51. Eric,

    So far, there are no N-Strike scopes from Nerf that have zoom function.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Hey Sg Nerf, something happened to my longshot, the bolt can't be pulled back any more? And therefore, I can't shoot? Why did this happen? Any idea?

  53. Dear SGNERF,

    Hello I'm a 12 year old boy and was wondering if you had any ideas on how to mod a nerf streamline dart? My Streamlines always curve off to the side! Any Ideas?
    , Nickonator
    P.S. I am sick at home with strep throat!

    ReplyDelete
  54. Jason Snafu Yap,

    Something is probably bent or mis-aligned inside the Longshot, you could open it up to troubleshoot the problem.

    Otherwise, just return it to the store and exchange for a new working unit.

    ReplyDelete
  55. Nick,

    Nerf streamline foam darts are naturally unbalanced and inconsistent. Even after being modded, they are still inaccurate.

    Unfortunately, there isn't much you can do to improve their accuracy.

    Check the NerfSG forum, there are lots of discussions there on other alternative foam darts which have much better accuracy and more consistent performance.

    ReplyDelete
  56. Hi SgNerf,
    Do you think by any chance they still sell the longshot??

    ReplyDelete
  57. Irsyad,

    Last i saw a week ago there are no more stock at Metro Paragon branch, i guess you'll have to shop around at other stores to find them.

  58. hello, I'm from Brazil, my name is Matheus and I spent two days looking at sites behind the toys nerf longshot, but not found anything, they still produce the longshots if so in what store or website I can find it there, thank you.

    ReplyDelete
  59. Matheus,

    Longshots are getting more and more rare nowadays.

    I guess you could try Amazon.com or eBay.com to purchase new or 2nd hand Longshots.

  60. xianzheng,

    In Singapore, the Nerf Longshot retails at SGD$79.90.

    ReplyDelete
  62. medicom06,

    Nerf Longshots retail at SGD$79.90 locally, but It seems that last batch has all already been sold out. You could still check at the various stores to try to find them, might get lucky.

    Alternatively, check at the NerfSG forum trading section to find local enthusiasts who may have spare sets available for sale.

  65. Hey SgNerf, I've seen you around on some forums, big fan.

    I have a question for you that I just can't find an answer to. In a recent game, my nerf longshot's plunger chamber broke, and I have no idea how to fix it. Tried searching for your email address but I couldn't find one on your blog. Anyway, think you can help me out? Pic link below

  66. desi_drifter395,

    You could try using 2-part epoxy glue (get the highest bond strength you can find) to glue back all the pieces, let it cure fully before trying it out again.

    If the re-glued parts still cannot hold up, then you'll just have to buy a new Longshot.

  74. Galen,

    You can get extra 6-dart N-Strike Clips from the Nerf Flip Clip Set, the Nerf Bandolier Set or the Nerf Tactical Vest Set.

    Those sets are currently still available at dept stores in Singapore.

  77. Hey sg nerf I just spotted 8 yellow nerf longshots! In tampinese yesterday.
    But my question is that should I get a nitron or stampede. I was also thinking of a longshot as I already have a raider which is 4 close combat so 4 for long range which is best? I will not mod them as I destroyed my old maverick so i'll keep it at stock. Price is not an issue. It also needs to be easily maneuverable. And is the 20 foam disc clip which comes with the nitron sold separately. The most important criteria is that it should hurt. Sry 4 all these questions but it will be super if u help. Thanks in advance :) u rule!

    ReplyDelete
  78. karthik,

    Yup, the Nerf Yellow Longshots are back in stock for a limited time now.

    As for the Nitron or Stampede, although they have similar full-auto firing capabilities and both are large-sized blasters, they both operate via different systems.

    The Stampede is a N-Strike foam dart blaster therefore its foam dart ammo, clips and accessories are all compatible with other N-Strike blasters. In addition, it uses a motorized spring powered direct plunger system, which can have good RoF and range improvements after modifications. Note that in stock condition, its range isn't much different from other stock N-Strike blasters.

    The Nitron is a Vortex foam disc blaster, so its ammo and clips are not compatible with the rest of the N-Strike blaster (thats something to consider), though it can still use accessories for N-Strike tactical rails. It uses a motorized flywheel system, which generates good stock ranges with the foam disc design (can be improved further if voltage modded), but the buzzing flywheel noise can be quite annoying to some users.

    The Vortex disc clips are not available separately in Singapore, you'll have to get them on your own from online or overseas.

    If you are just keeping them stock only and you just want longer stock range, then you could go for the Nitron. But note that although the Nitron has longer stock range, the disc velocity is still around the same as a foam dart from a stock Nerf blaster, so the shot travels slower in comparison over the equivalent distance... quite easy to dodge. :)

  79. Dude, can u recommend me some sniper blasters except longshot and longstrike. It can be other brands but can find in singapore. Iam getting one for my friend. One that has scope.

    ReplyDelete
  80. Dylan,

    So far, only the Longshot comes packaged with a "scope" (which is basically just a hollow plastic tube)... the Longstrike only has a flip-up sight.

    Those are the only 2 blasters that have the "sniper" style blaster design in the current Nerf model range.
