this blaster is essentially a much more modern, sophisticated version of the original Aeon Pro that adds several nice features, I really dig it! great video.
I don’t even know where to begin: - A skinny pusher - Talon style mags (do they work in Talon-only blasters??) - a scar barrel that can also fit over barrels - Advertises 150 FPS but hits 165 - Easy spring swap system - AEG style grips - TACTICS - Slamfire $25 for all that is insane. I’m def picking one up
Was waiting for this since listening to your appearance of the FNC podcast. Nice teardown, definitely blasters to look forward to (and hopefully there will be a toned down spring for those who need
There will be springs - I'm sure about that! In some early testing we had really great results with getting the performance down. With a combination of springs and spacers anything between 100-200+ FPS should be possible.
Great video and great blaster. Ultimately I don't know that I will actually get one, at least not to start, but maybe eventually. I just have so many other things
This is a really nice upgrade over the original Aeon Pro, I like the fact that the mag well is slightly flared, Also its nice to see you can now swap the spring more easily compared to the original and the fact it hits 168 fps is really impressive for the size, I'll definitely be picking up this and the new nexus, just a quick question but will you be selling the new dart zone muzzle accessory pack? the one that includes the scar and bcar? 😊
Im super curious why they placed the barrel so low. It looks worse imo and increased the complexity of the design so they mustve done it for a reason. Anyone got any ideas? My hot take on the blaster so far: If it wasnt for the interesting internals Id have zero interest in this. Besides modding, it seems a bit lacking in purpose to me (just like the original aeon). Its effectively too big for the role of a pistol and you cant shoot it 2 handed like a proper rifle either because its top primed...sooo when would you ever use it over other blasters? It doesnt have any fun gimicks that make it more fun to shoot either. The low standard deviation is very nice and it obviously has a slight advantage in capacity and fps over most other out of the box pro nerf pistols, but thats about it right? Taken on its own it seems like a good product....just not one that has a real purpose when looking at what else is available on the market. (Again, ignoring what will end up potentialy being possible through modding, im just speaking about the base product as is) Looking forward to the overview of the new nexus pro!
Edit(editing my original comment doesnt seem to work anymore): Im an idiot haha, keep forgetting the aeons are super cheap compared to other blasters. Theres its purpose. 35 euros for a 165 fps blaster is extremely reasonable. This would probably make for a great blaster to anyone wondering if theyd enjoy flinging foam at proper speeds as their first blaster or anyone on a tight budget. For some reason I thought this thing would be like 50+ euros.... should check first next time before writing a wall of text haha.
You answered your own question. In my opinion there are 2 benefits to the Aeon: price and size. It's a bit smaller than a Nexus, which could work well in a CQB environment. The stock attachment point also adds a lot of options now - you can run your favourite stock on it.
Could be bc other adventure force pro blasters (eg. Nexus and aeon pro) are also mostly orange. Maybe they wanted to keep the same color sheme. At least thats what ive heard in the fnc podcast.

It's a true successor to the original, with some great improvements indeed!
Thanks Blaster Time for the inside look at the Aeon Pro X !!! I'll definitely be getting one....or two.....👍🔫🤠

Magazines have catch in "talon location" so work in other blasters! Fully compatible!
@@blaster-timeLETS GOOOOOO
I really like the purple mag.
Same! I wish the US would get the purple blaster
Looking forward to the nexus pro review!👍
Tomorrow!

Dart zone is making a sub 130 fps and 200 fps spring for Aeon Pro X
What a great review. So nice to see the internals. It really is a nice blaster
Nice blaster, can't wait
Great video and great blaster. Ultimately I don't know that I will actually get one, at least not to start, but maybe eventually. I just have so many other things
Getting one of each. More excited for the nexus tho. Great video, thank you.

Muzzles will arrive in few weeks - look for the product on the site very soon!
@@blaster-time Oooo nice 👌
Will there also be a performance difference between a European or US version?
They'll be the same, just like the current offering of Nexus and Aeon blasters
the mechanism kinda reminds me of sillybutts' sillypistol. very cool
It not having an open breach really upsets me

I hope someone makes a pump action kit
I’m curious if you would like this Aeon Pro X with a pump kit more than the new Nexus Pro X.
Nice!
When is this available?
April 14th
I just don’t know why they thought they had to have a different shooting mechanism.
It reduces deadspace, has less flow resistance supposedly. This gives good performance with a skinny pusher. It seems to function really well!
@@blaster-timegreat point.
@@blaster-time cool thanks for the info
I want the purple one but live in US. Wonder why they have different colors?
Could be bc other adventure force pro blasters (eg. Nexus and aeon pro) are also mostly orange. Maybe they wanted to keep the same color sheme. At least thats what ive heard in the fnc podcast.
I will not get one....i will get 2 😋
NERF stock attachment! You van make a rifle with you existing NERF accessories.
It doesn't look as nice as the original
