As its name suggests, NERF’s new Rival Curve Shot firefighter training allows you to throw laps on a curve (left, right, straight or down) to surprise opponents even when they’re lurking around corners. Basically, they are an ideal secondary weapon to have in close battles.
The NERF Rival Curve Shot lineup kicks off with three blaster models, which are broken down below, along with information on pricing, pre-order, and release date.
NERF RIVAL CURVE SHOT FLEX XXI-100 ($ 14.99): The smallest and most affordable side weapon in the Curve Shot line comes with 5 rounds NERF Rival with onboard storage. Pull down on the opening handle to open the exhaust, load a round of it, and close it. Then select the curve with the rotary muzzle and press the trigger.
Curve Shot Flex XXI-100 will launch on March 1, 2021, but should be available for pre-booking here on Amazon, here at Walmart and here on Entertainment Earth soon.
NERF RIVAL CURVE SHOT SIDESWIPE XXI-1200 ($ 24.99) The next Curve Shot line blaster features a rifle-style design with a 12-wheel internal magazine with side loading and 12 official Nerf Rival rounds. Load the magazine, move the barley screw and press the trigger to fire 1 turn.
Curve Shot Sideswipe XXI-1200 will be released on March 1, 2021, but should be available for pre-order here on Amazon, here at Walmart and here on Entertainment Earth soon.
NERF RIVAL CURVE SHOT HELIX XXI-2000 ($ 29.99) The HELIX XXI-2000 blaster is the most powerful and most capable blaster in the Curve Shot line. Pump the handle to prime it and press the trigger to throw 1 turn at a speed of 90 feet per second. Includes 20 official NERF RIVAL impact rounds that can be loaded into an easy-loading hopper.
Curve Shot Helix XXI-2000 is an exclusive Target that will be released on August 1, 2021. Again, pre-orders are likely to drop here on Target long before that date.
On a related note, Disney’s weekly Mando Mondays event produced fantastic new products based on the success of the Star Wars: The Mandalorian series. Still, Nerf’s Amban Phase-Pulse Blaster replica was definitely one of the best.
The Amban Phase-Pulse sniper / sniper rifle has been a Mandalorian series aircraft as one of the main weapons used by Din Djarin. The Nerf replica blaster measures more than 50 m long (50.25 inches) and features sound effects and an electronic lens with an illuminated lens thanks to two AAA batteries (not included).
The blaster includes 10 darts, which are loaded one at a time into the pop-up pants. To fire, pull back the priming handle followed by the trigger. Given the size of this rifle and the activation of the opening handle, we wouldn’t expect Mando’s Nerf rifle to be a long-range weapon, but it will probably be the coolest blaster in your arsenal.
Pre-orders for Nerf Star Wars The Mandalorian Amban Phase-Pulse Blaster are now posted through the following links for $ 119.99.
