When we first got those samples of the round and got closer to what we wanted, we were still getting into the final state of not being as tacky or sticky,” adding that it was “problematic” to keep them fluffed and loose. If you actually stuff 40 tiny yellow balls into a Rush-40, or 50 of them into a Siege-50, they might not have enough room to reach the chute at all. Turning off the personalised advertising setting won’t stop you from seeing Etsy ads, but it may make the ads you see less relevant or more repetitive. not the hop ups fault just be aware, my guess is a stronger spring might help as maybe the hop up is a tad to aggressive I'll update if that changes anything.

Loved this Keith Haring toy, it engrossed my 4 year old just as much as it fascinated me - hours of fun, and it looks so good too. Perhaps the biggest thing I don’t understand about Hasbro’s foam-flinging strategy is why it let this competition go unchecked, instead of building better darts itself.

If Hasbro had simply made its foam Rival balls smaller, they would have been lighter too, which isn’t necessarily helpful for speed and accuracy.

lines (both of which performed worse than previous blasters in a number of ways), I’m hoping Hasbro might take a harder look at how it can truly compete. This is all a shame, because in many ways these Hyper balls are the best projectiles Nerf’s made in years. We produced probably a dozen different colors and just threw them out into a lawn out back to see which is easiest to see — that neon yellow popped,” Nerf brand manager Greg Nyland told me.

You’ll also get to reload faster thanks to large hoppers and reload canisters, sold separately, that attach to the Tactical Rails.

These new Hyper rounds have an innovative design and more of a rubbery material that maximizes speed. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.To get a sense of how much performance has changed, I compared the Hyper Rush-40 to the Rival Kronos — since the Rush is largely just a Kronos with the new projectiles on board. But the Rush-40 and Mach-100 mysteriously don’t have a hop-up, even though the Rival blasters they’re based on (the aforementioned Rival Kronos and Rival Perses) most definitely do. To make them safe, Hasbro made them squishy, and now they’re too gummy to avoid sticking on each other when they’re crammed into a hopper. I’ve been testing them in my local park, my backyard, and this past month, I got to try them at an actual Nerf war. They travel faster and don’t loft in the air quite like Rival rounds, so they’ll likely be harder to dodge, too.

That’s why Hasbro decided to start with hopper-fed blasters to begin with, as opposed to compression feeding systems like a spring-loaded magazine.

If you’ve already done that, your item hasn’t arrived, or it’s not as described, you can report that to Etsy by opening a case.They are designed to increase the aim and range of your blaster considerably, making it much more effective in Nerf battles. Products that contain small parts may pose a choking hazard and should not be used by children under 3. And even when they do fire, you can’t expect them to go anywhere near where their blaster’s built-in aiming sights are pointed. Before they could perfect that ball, the company’s designers had to build a new set of blasters to actually fire those projectiles, too.
