      Villianator looks like a junk toy. NERF Elite 2.0 or just about any of their products superior product styling. But The Villianator toy outperforms what's supposed to be a better blaster company. I like the NERF Elite 2.0 Volt a lot. I feel the need to take a chance on the NERF Elite 2.0 Warden despite people's horrible experiences with slam fire. I should really track down a used Roughcut. I'll most likely buy Villianator that comes with 40 waffle head darts (I was going to buy a pack anyway so hopefully they hold up) vs double the Elite 2.0 two color darts which is still less than Villianator. So yeah besides looks. Villianator!

    This may be indicative of a downward spiral where Hasbro runs Nerf into the ground.

    I don't know about you but I like the Nerf Elite 2.0 Shockwave its very good the only thing I can complain about is no slam fire.

  • @jacobdennison968
    @jacobdennison968 4 роки тому +1

    The barrel fit inconsistency isn’t just your model drac, it seems to be a common issue with this absolute abomination of a blaster. Thanks for the unfaltering honesty as always!
    Also side note-I think the reason they removed slamfire in the shockwave opposed to the surgefire is because of how frequently the surgefire slipped n skipped barrles when slamfiring.

    Since I just checked out of curiosity, the old Surgefire is still available from a number of online sellers at the same price point as this ... thing, if you like the look of this but don't like getting ripped off. Or, you know, the Villainator is probably sitting next to this thing on store shelves with 25 more darts per drum, better performance, and slam fire, all while costing $5 less.

    Sorry Drac but i have to totally disagree with you, the worst elite 2.0 out would have to be the Elite 2.0 Warden

    The reason I like the new rail (although it’s cheaper) is when modding I don’t lose the spring

  • @runningonemptyofficial
    @runningonemptyofficial 4 роки тому +1

    I have a theory that Elite 2.0 is just a cash grab to replace the money they lost from ultra. So they spent hardly any money on them to just get some quick cash. By the way ultra shoots awesome in the Nexus Pro.

    Shockwave is a commander depending on which universe you look at. For example, in the Aligned continuity Sockwave was the head scientist and one of the two lieutenants in the Decepticon Asked forces

    @Orax1701 4 роки тому +1

    We need to stop using "nerf" and "nerfing" to describe our hobby: Hasbro and Nerf are not worthy anymore. I don't know what we use instead, but it should not be "to nerf". It's okay for little kids, but that's about it.

  • @RyanZibell
    @RyanZibell 4 роки тому

    I picked up a dart zone magnum superdrum blaster for 2 bucks at a yard sale the other day, has slam fire and consistently gets 80 fps even though it's 2 years old. Oh and 40 darts with consistent fit

  • @Valgornify
    @Valgornify 4 роки тому +2

    This feels like its sole purpose was to let hasbro keep the trademark on the name "shockwave" so that they could continue to use it later on for the transformers line, just in case the character doesn't make an appearance in a toyline or other piece of media.

    Used this at Nerf Action Xperience in SG and half of the time the darts didn't even fire out of the gun, then for another game they let us use the surgefire and it was beautiful.
