I was in Target yesterday and I saw these Nerf Blasters and I was thinking. "If Lenny and 'em were to update Flash, Sci-Fi, Grandslam's loadout. I would be cool if they gave them Nerf guns."
I like this blaster for Flash for his primary weapon. or one of these two for Sci-Fi's primary. And for their sidearm since the tooling is already available the NERF Rival Knockout XX-100 Blaster. Since the original Glandslam didn't come with a rifle I wouldn't be mad if he came with the Nerf blaster Flash or Sci-Fi would come with. I would also be open to having Extreme, Sigma 6, figures and those cats from Adventure Team coming with a Nerf gun loadout. What do you guys think?

I'd totally be fine with Flash or Grand Slam coming with those types of weapons or even those exact designs. They were always sci-fi based and used fictional laser weapons, so I think their Classified versions should do the same.

The tech has changed so much since '82. To limit the laser troopers to their original design would make them look like Technicolor actors in a UHD film. I do hope Flash still has the basic concept of his v1 uniform but the weapons could stand some upgrades.
Besides ... all the Joes and Cobras had weapons that fired lasers in Sunbow lore. Those who specialize in laser weapons need to stand out (but not in a Rise of Cobra Flash way). The gun doesn't need to be 5 times his size. Last edited by TheOverlordCorp; 04-06-2023 at 11:01 PM.. |

I'm fine if they come with those weapons but only for characters where it's suitable, ones that don't use obvious realistic weapons

What about later versions of a character? (e.g. Snake Eyes, Stalker, Major Bludd, etc.)

I think I want those figures to have realistic weapons. The only characters I think that I am okay with having sci-fi/fictional weapons are the characters who use lasers like Flash, Grand Slam, Sci-Fi, BF2000, etc.

If "later" characters are given futurist looks, then it would make sense for them to have futuristic or experimental weapons. Guys like Fast-Draw and Sneak-Peek, even Psyche-Out could have weapons that might only be theories in this current time. Snipers could also have intensified weapons. But, Cobra should definitely have higher-end tech than the Joes, otherwise MARS Industries is worthless.

I was always good with the Nerf guns, but I want Hasbro to release corresponding actual Nerf guns.
And not that monstrosity they canceled. Just Nerf guns with subtle Joe branding and packaging. |
