[REVIEW] Nerf Rival Challenger MXXIV-1200 (Finally!!! A Rival Stryfe!)

[@darkhawkthebad]

The Emperor is pleased with this one

[@LNR65]

For the Emprah!

[@chaplainjinx]

8 AA's, oof. They should have just gone with some type of rechargeable pack. I'm sure you'll rectify that soon enough though.

[@zeroblade6599]

Ikea has nice rechargeable AA Nimh batteries, does the US have Ikea?

[@Vessick]

​@@zeroblade6599Yes

[@ianbui5356]

​@@zeroblade6599Yes, IKEA has made its way here. I did like how the Hera used the Khaos' rechargeable battery pack, but that was pretty much the reason for the blaster's huge size for what it did. I was kind of wondering if the battery tray might be removable like the DZP MK-III since Hasbro seems to be trying to gain traction in the hobby, but I couldn't see any sign that it is.

[@NightFury-jd8ce]

The back above the grip attachment point with a spring swivels in for a strap to attach like a carabiner and first one made in India per the Dark Corps Armorer yeaterday.

[@DartsNStuff]

Little on the slower slide but it is super consistent though. Thanks for the review.

[@Apocalypsejunkiesxtreme]

I was very impressed with the accuracy I got from this thing! Finally a hop up that works!

[@NaptownNerf]

Yeah, seem like that to me also but couldn't really stay for sure as I wasn't able to test at enough range to feel confident in my opinion.

[@moddancerspartanyogi1398]

I love this! Def need it lipo powered.

[@foamquest]

Excited to get this one! Great review!

[@JVDubs]

I am glad this is out!

[@mauricesoulis1590]

Anything released is a blessing in the Rival fam but c’mon! Zero detailing or elevation on the “wrong” side plus the Fisher Price colors of this new lineup makes me think of the 80’s AMC cars vs The Big 3😂😂 I’ll stick with my Saturn, Sideswipe & Hades for now. N of course the Heracles🎉

[@redreality4151]

its a rival stryfe. coop772 would be proud

[@Korviliath]

Mod guide when? 😅

[@dzpdave1649]

Awesome video. I'm glad you're back posting again. Because it runs on 8 AA's what lipo do you think you'll use?

[@NaptownNerf]

3S

[@cwikk660]

"I’d be surprised if it fit in the Hera, I don’t have all those blasters around to test it right now." lol has a Hera over his right shoulder.

[@NaptownNerf]

Well, I could've tested it in the Hera but I was referring more to all the other rival blasters that it could possibly fit in. Whether it can fit in one specific blaster seemed kind of irrelevant. That being said, it does not fit in the Hera.

[@willihill2]

It's a tragedy if they don't offer a rechargeable battery pack for this. I was considering this blaster until the Fresh 8 Alkaline battery part. This is too nice of a blaster to not have a rechargeable pack

[@kevinp2891]

Definitely needs a lipo, thanks for video

[@rob010976]

Naptown, I love the review! I can’t wait to get one in my hands. We love playing with our clubs with various intensities but this would be a cool mod. We’d love to see you at a ABC/SCNC or ADL/IDL game soon. And in all fairness my son and I want to make it to you all to play outside of a HVZ or FPT.

[@NaptownNerf]

Definitely need to make it back down to Atlanta soon. Miss you folks down there.

[@FoamFlinger0523]

Wow it is burning the battery quick,but the fps are really really consistent.

[@MidnightBlasters]

Needs a 3S

[@jamesstephenson8539]

I wonder how many Coolook batteries it can safely use.

[@mattorama]

The way Rival mags eject rounds like that is a pain. Especially when you just want to remove a mag, and a spare round flies out.

[@NaptownNerf]

Most definitely!

[@biohazardmadness1155]

Thats just a nerf bolter pistol

[@oniarmoury]

Hm, with how low the fps is with the 8AA batteries, I wonder if they changed the flywheels from the usual ridged concave flywheels or reduced the crush on it?

[@ArgusXII]

Strange how you got 80ish FPS but WalcomS7 reach 90s to 100 FPS

[@NaptownNerf]

Like I said, it could just be my model. Hopefully that's the case.

[@runesrensen8551]

walcom reviewed the challenger and got 90 to 100 fps. i think your batteries are a little to the weak side.

[@NaptownNerf]

I always use brand new batteries and they were just purchased. I think it's possible that my flywheels were very out of balance. Or possibly just got some sort of a slight lemon. Chronographs are also inconsistent in reading, so maybe Walcom's chronograph reads higher than mine... not sure. Mine has been very accurate over the years, but I also usually use it outdoors so that could've affected things possibly.

[@CRNerf]

Seems a little underpowered with 8 AA's. Thank you though for the video.

[@brianmckinney3379]

Why would you get a 12 round of these with a Perses available.

[@NaptownNerf]

It's much cheaper and smaller.

[@Andygriff1975]

What Indy Target?
