NERF NEWS!!! The NEW Nerf Rival MIRAGE XXIV 800! | 2024 is looking good for the Rival line!!

[@foamquest]

Thanks for the heads up! @Andygriff1975

[@DOUBLEPUNCHPRONERFER]

Good news is the attachments for the mirage and challenger are gonna be sold separately also I'm reviewing these next month I'm preordering the mirage this weekend I already preordered 2 challengers

[@backyardfoam]

I was not aware of the top off access point. That is super cool and such a fun way to scavenge ammo. Fingers crossed for some Rival attachments!

[@foamquest]

Yeah, we'll have to see about the attachment thing, it would be interesting!

[@KaijuForceNeo]

It’s true that RIVAL was originally named for the usage of Red and Blue colors, signifying 2 Teams to face off against each other. But with this new color scheme appearing as far back as Summer 2022, it’s officially a new Lineage that we’ve dubbed “RIVAL Upgraded”, due to the internals being overpowered. The HIR rounds are also given a special Streamlined mod (Plus, a Blue Color to match the Palette on the Blasters), allowing them to fly at least 90 feet.

[@Andygriff1975]

While not true rifling for spin the barrel is ribbed for accuracy. Look at the barrel up close from an angled photo. The fine print on the 8 Round Removable. Magazine callout says it's compatible with standard mag fed rival blasters. I bet this magazine works in the Challenger, the question will be if the Challenger mag works in the Mirage. On the Walmart listing it states Blasters and Accessories sold separately. That could be a clue along with all the tactical rails and barrel lug that attachments are coming. The Mirage appears to have the same spring loaded carabiner clip as listed in the Challenger description. How long will it take before someone cuts away and removes pieces to create a minimized Star Trek phaser pistol?

[@CRNerf]

Glad Rival is still alive and well. Thank you for the video.

[@foamquest]

Absolutely! Alive and strong by the looks of it!!

[@Nishye501]

Honestly these new accurival blasters look so much better than the first ones

[@foamquest]

I liked the first ones, but would have to agree with you!

[@darrenbooth7968]

Looks awesome. So glad rival is still a thing

[@nicholasmazzarella2720]

Thanks for the update. Looks pretty awesome.

[@zeanyt2372]

I've been waiting for this since the Apollo. This is exactly how design a rival pistol. If it has slam-fire, I'm buying 2.

[@foamquest]

Slamfire would be cool! We'll see!

[@thegoatedjp3806]

Sadly coop won't be here to review this… 😢

[@FazbearEntertainment984]

😭

[@foamquest]

:(

[@brickosaurus2276]

This blaster looks amazing!

[@foamquest]

It sure does!!

[@spideravengermiller3920]

This blaster is gonna be sick I can’t wait till it releases

[@mr.wublin]

I really dig the new design style that Hasbro is taking with these upcoming Rival blasters! definitely looks to be a very solid blaster with some nice features

[@foamquest]

Same! I really appreciate the more tactical 2015-2019 look combined with that modern Accu-Rival beauty! Good stuff!

[@itsrylannnnn]

I was the first person who discovered that blaster

[@chrisstephenson8311]

Coop approves this blaster because it has an N-Strike barrel lug😝 I wish he would come back just for videos here and there for all the cool blasters coming out!!! Who doesn’t want to see him review the challenger cause he loves the stryfe so much👍🏻👍🏻

[@Definitelyhuman-y8r]

But it’s not an n-strike barrel lug it’s a gelfire barrel lug!

[@jackboulter4901]

Im definitely liking the look of this and the challenger, here's hoping these come over to the uk as over here we never got the pilot or the forerunner over here last year, thankfully though i did manage to get a pilot off ebay last year so you know 😊.

[@blitzotheviewer]

My new favorite rival blaster hands down

[@nikitabs4808]

Nice design, but how the priming handle is going to work considering that it's located on the stock?

[@foamquest]

It's just that top part which says Rival on it, the rest won't move. It'll probably feel similar to a Kronos!

[@Burasta]

I have secret dreams for Rival Modulus

[@foamquest]

That would be cool! It does suck that we hardly get anything Modulus related these days!

[@wildmangeorgesrcchannel6916]

im going insane over this right now. i want this one over the electric one. im primarily a springer guy and i already own every acu rival in the blue line so far. i might even get a take down and saturn but the new blue line out performs them by alot.

[@brandonmichaud7641]

I would suggest getting both, the new blue line is awesome but both the takedown and saturn are awesome too, especially with accu ammo

[@wildmangeorgesrcchannel6916]

@@brandonmichaud7641 I will eventually. I just don’t have much money

[@marknerfandtankvlogs]

Hello there foamquest! (been a while since i havent been commenting on your videos, so sorry about that) but i have some interesting things to point out on the new rival mirage, firstly i think the mirage cutout on the grip must be there to reduce cost and i also noticed that both the mirage and challenger doesnt have those movable iron sights and those green front sights which the other accu-rival blasters have mainly the forerunner, vision, fate, and pathfigher ever since the pilot came out, which is interesting since those 5 dont seem to have tac rails like those 2 new blasters and i have theory that nerf might make a large accurival blaster that will introduce a new barrel attachment for rival (similar to the retaliator) that could be eqquiped with the mirage and challenger

[@foamquest]

Good to hear your thoughts! A bigger Accu-Rival blaster would be epic as a Fall release!!

[@marknerfandtankvlogs]

Indeed@@foamquest!

[@galaga8779]

The challenger had BETTER use AA's...

[@foamquest]

I hope it comes with a rechargeable, but with no mention in the listing, chances are slim!

[@samursword]

One can only imagine how many 3-D printed attachments there’s gonna be from the Nerf community for this

[@foamquest]

Right?

[@wildmangeorgesrcchannel6916]

im a 3d print designer although not a commercial one just yet. im thinking already

[@samursword]

@@wildmangeorgesrcchannel6916 i’m going to get into designing, but I’m already thinking of stripper clips and stuff

[@foamholic3485]

@foamquest If the priming handle is where the stock is, when you prime it, the priming handle will exceed the stock. So is the stock unusable?

[@foamquest]

Well, maybe it's a stock in the sense that the Apollo has a stock. One that isn't really primarily being used. If need be, I'm sure you could prime the Mirage, and then shoulder it after.

[@foamholic3485]

@@foamquest Hi, thanks for replying! Yeah I get what you mean but the Mirage's end looks like an actual stock, instead of the apollo's extended butt. Also, stocks are generally useful when you're priming the blaster, so you can have your shoulder support the strength required to prime. In this case, the design is kinda dumb. But anywho, ig we'll find out when it releases :)

[@foamquest]

@@foamholic3485 Yeah, you make some good points! I guess we'll see!

[@AudieS23]

The Mirage is available at Meijer right now!

[@Xander_Shady]

I can’t be the only one who thinks the challenger looks like something from warhammer 40k

[@QuickStub]

Woooo~!

[@mechanwhal6590]

Is Rival seriously going to outlive Hyper?

[@OutOfIdeas9977]

Crazy it has a barrel lug

[@stg.wendigo1655]

Top prime huh? Can't wait to put my HPA unit in it

[@XtraReason]

What is your fav worker primary

[@Andygriff1975]

I only own the Seagull and the Hurricane. My Hurricane is the collector transparent Red #501, it's still NIB. The Seagull is great though. I would probably only change the stock on it or add some grip tape. The pump grip is very small but I got used to it. I got a green Seagull but wish the Orange was available when I bought mine. Now do I get matching green mags or not, hmmm?

[@DOUBLEPUNCHPRONERFER]

We are getting attachments its confirmed on the boxes

[@foamquest]

Really, the Mirage box? Where?

[@DOUBLEPUNCHPRONERFER]

@@foamquest not sure but Andy Griffith knows

[@Some_Cat_]

Phantom Corps was the best aesthetic imho

[@foamquest]

Phantom Corps was phenomenal!!

[@ANTONY_EDITSYT]

I CANNOT WITH THE N STRIKE BARREL LUG💀

[@foamquest]

😅

[@Lotus_III]

Really hope its a self retracting prime

[@foamquest]

Oh yeah! That would be sweet! I think it's possible!!

[@Skilionplays]

It's not

[@AC에이씨아님]

UZI?

[@rongarrison3246]

So an Apollo reskin? Really!!!

[@ericslater-vk6wb]

how old are you

[@melisaschmeets3913]

cool

[@Definitelyhuman-y8r]

2:21 WAIT IS IT A GELFIRE FIRE BARREL LUG FROM THE MYTHIC OR MRBEAST GUN

[@NewWorld175K]

Anyone else think it kinda looks like a Hera?

[@ericslater-vk6wb]

what is your favoite food

[@foamquest]

Hmm, it really depends! I like a good pizza (who doesn't) salad, sourdough bread, cheesecake, etc. So, a lot of things I guess! I'm not too picky! 😅

[@Cheezzitking]

THIS IS WHAT WE WANT NERF!! Stop making gimmicky garbage and fortnite trash. Give us solid good looking rival

[@foamquest]

I have to agree! With a few exceptions, I think I've had enough low effort worstly done reshels!!

[@benlosi]

Meh more top prime cr💩p. Just another helios style

[@ChesterManfred]

I'ma be honest, the mirage looks a little ugly in my opinion
