How I "E"

To contact us Click HERE

I'm not expecting to run into many "hobby" related things for a little while here. I'll be "out of the office" from June 12th-21st on vacation in Hawaii with my family and girlfriend. I may chime in once or twice if anything relevant to Tactical Tag comes my way, but Nerf and Laser Tag will probably be the last things on my mind as I explore the United States' newest archipelago.

While I do realize that a few readers reside in Hawaii, I likely won't have time during our vacation to swing by to Nerf it up or anything like that. I will admit, it would be fun to be welcomed to the airport by a flurry of darts from a Hornet that a certain someone won.

Anyways, I'll be back in action in a week or so! Later!

Nerf Nation: Hailfire official image

A better quality image of the upcoming Nerf N-Strike Elite Hailfire. Props to it being innovative and unlike anything we've seen before. It also looks like having more design cues from sci-fi video games than real world guns which I also like. What I don't like is it looks rather unwieldy to use- though I guess we got between now and September to work the forearms for dual wielding:P

No, I don't have one. Image comes from Nerf's official Facebook page:D

Big Chin Iron Man Mask: Hidden Assassins

Sometimes Facebook advertising works; I saw these masks advertised on the side of my FB screen and was rather impressed. It's no secret I lerrrrv 'ballistic' style masks and what have you, so check out the wares from Hidden Assassins- very cool indeed:D (Not sure why the chin is so big, but I guess real action heroes have big jaws:P)

Rumours: Sonic Series Vortex Praxis

To contact us Click HERE

Spotted on Tao Bao, we see here a rumoured Sonic Series Vortex Praxis. I find it a tad confusing that you've got this N-Strike vs Vortex thing, and yet there was the cross over Light up series that crossed over both of them, and now we've got the Sonic Series. I would have at least chosen a different colour. Can u imagine a translucent blue Praxis? mmmm.

Still.. here's the pic anyway. As always.. I don't have it. And I doubt I'll buy one either, but you can. When it comes out:)

Wii U: Nerf accessories in Elite colours

To contact us Click HERE

Performance Designed Products (or PDP) have revealed their new Nerf gear for the upcoming Nintendo Wii-U. It's interesting how they're sporting the new colours of Nerf's upcoming Elite line rather than the traditional yellow and orange, although the blue and orange isn't a stranger to the Wii with the N-Strike Elite game gun accessory sporting the same accents.

For what it's worth- I like it;D

Koosh Galaxy: Thoughts?

To contact us Click HERE

We first heard of the upcoming Koosh Galaxy range earlier this year and it's pretty obvious I am NOT the target market for these made-for-kids ball blasters. From what I can see, all but one of them ( the 'Space Agent ball launcher') are sans trigger which seems to be the way to go when making blasters for wee tacker.
The hand grips are also made for small hands, and I'm doubting they'll be sporting mad crazy distances but I'm still curious. Are any of you? Or is this going TOO far into delving into the kids realm of things (eg like playing with Duplo!)

Toy Spy: Toy Fair 2012 photos

To contact us Click HERE

The New York Toy Fair is always the one to watch for new blaster products; unfortunately New York is a tad far away from wee Canberra, Australia so we have to live vicariously through our US pals to bring us the news:) Toy Spy have got a fantastic gallery of images from the Hasbro stand; I've gone through and posted the relevant ones here, but do go over and check out their site to see more Hasbro goodness. Images after the jump.
