  • NERF Zombiestrike might have been hit or miss, but at least it had character. Now with the NERF Zombie Driller, it feels like they're taking that character away.

      I got into Nerf just when the Zombiestrike line was starting, my goodness this thing is ugly and cheap-looking in comparison.

  • @GunnarTobus
    @GunnarTobus 2 місяці тому +6

    My main issue with Zombie is that with Zombie Strike, we got all these cool molded details like pliers, screwdrivers, bike chains, and barbed wire to make these blasters look thrown together. And these blaster skins just aren’t the same. There’s so much going on with this blaster, it just looks too busy.

  • @BigBongly
    @BigBongly 3 місяці тому +20

    I feel like the best way I can describe the new Zombie line is that it's like a Free To Play mobile phone version of Zombie Strike. Heck it's more akin to one of those awful F2P "temple run but instead of it being temple run its [insert franchise being marketed here]"

    @Xenosthewatcher 3 місяці тому +15

    Once again, no one gives better advertisements for their competitors than Nerf. The outlaw only costs like 5 dollars more, dumps on it performance wise and fires half lengths, there is no reason to buy this blaster when there are way better options for around the same price point.

  • @beni446
    @beni446 3 місяці тому +35

    They took away the "strike" because you ain't hitting nothing with it and they didn't want to get in trouble for false advertising /s

    Dude that is so cool that you addressed that fum ad. I admit it felt... out of place. I'm sorry that it was getting sketchy for you, but I personally think your channel is better without endorsements like those though. Great video drac.

    @sweetlikechocothai 3 місяці тому +6

    You can still buy a trailblazer. I modded mine to rearload short darts. It’s a pretty decent blaster. Hammershot/Sweet Revenge are still the GOAT.

  • @xinixini1826

    Only way you can really defend the lack of triggerguard is... drills don't have a button guard typically.

      And of course, that approach has worked so well and made Hasbro so much money... Oh wait, no it hasn't. But have they learned from their mistakes? Of course not, they're doubling or tripling down, completely unwilling to admit any mistakes. It's a death spiral.

  • @themagitechie9955
    @themagitechie9955 3 місяці тому +3

    you know what strikes me as odd? This new blaster looks familiar in some way. Back when Zombie Strike was still alive, the boxart often showed blasters that weren't released yet. I remember one of those looked a lot like a power drill, but it never showed up on shelves. I think that design showed up on the boxart a year or two before elite 2.0 was released. Could the driller have been an old design that got shelved way back then, and is only seeing the light of day now? I don't know, but I find it weird.

  • @bonzupippinpaddleoxacoppil484
    @bonzupippinpaddleoxacoppil484 3 місяці тому +3

    Thing is the blaster looks like a drill but the print hides it. It could have been another cool looking cobbled together style but nope.

  • @another3997
    @another3997 Місяць тому +2

    Hasbro is a business, it makes products to sell. Income needs to exceed total expenditure. All the calculations for a product are worked out months in advance, from initial design, prototyping, testing, contacts with suppliers, setting up manufacturing processes and machinery etc. But things can change both locally and globally. Costs go up, market conditions change, profits go down. Cutting costs and charging more money is often a necessity, even if consumers don't like it or understand the reasons.

    Get the feeling nerf is in a slump ATM, real life situations can often have impact in the sales of toy guns. Xshot also seems to be doing really well in terms of shelf space, so maybe they're trying to copy their approach as an experiment (they tend to print lavish designs)

  • @8bitphilosopher286
    @8bitphilosopher286 3 місяці тому

    It seems like a far inferior blaster to the outlaw.
    But the outlaw was designed to be a competition blaster, and this was designed to be a toy.
    I agree that this is far inferior to...basically any of the hammer-primed options out there. But I also don't think it needs to be better than any of those. At the end of the day, it needs to be a toy that a kid can enjoy. If it also happens to be a toy adults can enjoy, that's awesome, but it doesn't need to be.

    Normal Elite,Zombiestrike and First series Rival was peak NERF
    and now they have the worst lines every

    It's a bummer this doesn't have a bit better build quality, because I actually do quite like the shell of it in general shape. I think it's fun and could paint up nice. The skin is just boring and uninteresting, and the shell is so thin...Man, it's disappointing.
    Also, I must have somehow missed you were building a new studio, that makes sense. I was surprised I hadn't seen the room and yard I got used to seeing you in since like...wow, the X-Shot Longshot video I think? But you've moved between that and the other yard with the fancy pool before. Hope the new studio build is going smoothly!

    I agree with you, loved the Zombie Strike line, and didn't think Hasbro could sink lower with money grabs, but sadly, I was wrong. Like you said, not that it's truly bad, it's just greatly disappointing. I don't know what to expect from Hasbro in the future, but hope it gets better because I want to like their stuff!
    As far as the Fume thing, you have nothing to apologize for. Your heart was in the right place and that was obvious. Unfortunately in our society today, some people just live to be offended and upset in some way shape or form. Keep your head up and keep doing what you're doing! Keep up the good work bro!
