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.

@@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.

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.

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.

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🎉

"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.
@NaptownNerf6 ай бұрын
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.

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

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.

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.

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?

Strange how you got 80ish FPS but WalcomS7 reach 90s to 100 FPS
@NaptownNerf6 ай бұрын
Like I said, it could just be my model. Hopefully that's the case.
@runesrensen85516 ай бұрын
walcom reviewed the challenger and got 90 to 100 fps. i think your batteries are a little to the weak side.
@NaptownNerf5 ай бұрын
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.
