Nerf Herders Unite
Unleash your inner child with these six new Nerf blasters.
Little siblings of the world, run for cover. Nerf has unveiled six new blasters available this fall—which means foam darts will soon start raining down on little noggins with greater accuracy, greater speed, and from longer distances.
01Nerf N-Strike Elite Infinius
This blaster's motorized loading means can spend less time feeding in darts and more time pelting your enemies. Power up the 30-dart removable ammo drum and pull the trigger to release a continuous stream of foam darts before your enemies can say Nerf. ($70)
02Nerf Accustrike Mega Thunderhawk
Want a more accurate shooter? The Accustrike Mega Thunderhawk comes with a flip-down bipod to stabilize the blaster for longer-range accuracy, helping you get that dart right in the bull's eye (or your brother's forehead). ($50)
03Nerf Modulus Ghost Ops Evader
Part of Nerf’s Ghost Ops series, the entirely translucent Modulus comes with a light-up body and rapid-fire motorized blasting. It can can light your path when you're playing in dimly-lit situations, or you can switch the light off and go full stealth. ($40)
04Nerf Zombie Strike Survival System Scravenger
If you’re worried about the zombie apocalypse, don’t be—this blaster’s got you covered. It comes with two dart clips, just in case the 12 in the first clip aren’t enough to stop the undead hordes, and a clip-on attachment holds a secondary blaster for emergencies. ($50)
05Nerf Rival Prometheus MX-VII 20K
Older kids (14 and up) will get a kick out of this blaster, which fires darts at a obnoxiously fast eight rounds per second. That giant hopper holds 200 rounds, so you can badger your friends with a steady stream of foam pellets for 25 seconds straight. ($200)
06Nerf Nitro Doubleclutch Inferno
The Nerf Nitro series swaps darts for little foam cars—sort of a throw-back to the Ricochet Racers of old. This double-barrel beast can shoot two cars over, around, or through the eight obstacles, double ramp, and double pop-up target that come with the blaster. ($40)
