I agree he was trying way too hard to appear to hysterically laugh at a bad skit.

[@soulthrone]

Ngl I had to pause this so I could calm down from laughing so much my dog ran over looking very concerned for me

[@ahumblebulbasaur3591]

I was kind of brainstorming an answer to hyper by changing the flywheels in rival to increase capacity, but then I thought “why fix what isn’t broken”.

[@jeebus2313]

The funniest part about the Mando blaster is the fact that there's a cheaper one coming out that was listed on Amazon that looks better and is just missing the electronics and the fancy box. So if you really want a nice enough prop blaster and you're a fan of the show (which, let's be honest, is what most people are going to buy it for over actual performance), just get that one instead.

[@matthewyoho5422]

Bobo was, indeed, correct, in that his honorable mention definitely wins... but for none of the very valid (and funny) complaints he did raise: it's that all of those things are true *and* the price tag was over $100. For *that*.

[@Maniac4Bricks]

Not to mention people had to order this direct from Hasbro and had to wait almost an entire year for it to arrive. All the hype for nothing.

Bobos rant was absolute gold, peak comedy gold and Dracs' reaction was perfect

[@matthewyoho5422]

You have the Thundershot situation, as far as what went wrong with them internally that was making folks' blasters break, pretty much exactly backwards: those early reviewers giving it good press hadn't been sent prototype versions that wound up being superior to the finalized production version, because costs had been cut in the window between those prototypes being produced and the final design entering production, such that the final design broke where the prototypes did not... they were sent what was "supposed to be" the finalized production version of the blaster, that Buzz Bee thought were what was being assembled and shipped (that being the design they approved). The ones initially on store shelves that were breaking, were actually the prototypes: they'd scrapped that version precisely because it broke in the way that ours started to once we got our hands on them, hence the redesign of the catch mechanism from the original sear over to the superior one that had been present in the early review copies - the factory responsible for the faulty sort hitting shelves had just incorrectly failed to switch to the final version when full production started, and kept making that initial prototype, hence the version we got sucking in the way that it did.

[@oldkingcrow777]

Me thinks the Buzz Ber doth protest too much

[@Blitzol]

I bought a hyper rush and shot it at a wall and it bounced back and into my mouth and it was just like a pill. Freaking terrified me though cause I “ate” rubber

[@dontkickmychick6076]

Nice trickshot

[@Crowe0920]

God i missed Bobo XD that comedy had both Drac AND me dying

[@justajolt]

I came for Drac. I stayed for Bobo. I left with happy.

[@SivaExperiment]

having gone through the little segment of you priming the thundershot (or whatever its called) you actualy have a defective one now im not sure if this is the one buzzbee sent you or if this is off the shelf but yeah the trigger moved when you primed it and well thats not a good sign with this blaster

[@matthewyoho5422]

Yup, that's the visible tell between the "whoops, the factory kept using the determined to be non-viable (because it breaks) version when full production started" and the one that they (apparently) thought was being put into production, it having apparently been the final design; the other visible differences that could crop up aren't necessarily tied to it using a sear that breaks vs a dedicated catch that shouldn't, it's specifically just "does your trigger move when you prime the hammer - like a Hammershot would - or not".

[@kane804]

@1:40 when Drac falls out due to the Soulja Boy reference is a top 2021 KZbin moment for me.

[@valerielastname9508]

Clarification: According to Buzz Bee, the defective Thundershots were a prototype that was never supposed to go into actual production, but the factory didn't receive the updated designs for some reason and the first run on shelves were the defective prototypes. New production Thundershots are the more robust design, and you can tell them apart if you buy it in person by priming it in the box and seeing if the trigger moves on its own. Not sure if I believe that story entirely but at least you can find the better ones if you try. But when the 6-SH exists, why bother?

[@colelacey2875]

Thanks Drac for the content you've given all year! Can't wait to see what you come up with next!

[@jamiebonczek8026]

This is by far the funniest video made by you Drac, and I know it's good when you start laughing uncontrollably. Great video, Drac!

[@clonescope2433]

The thing that offends me most about the Mandalorian limited release blaster besides the fact it's being re-released as a normal Blaster is the fact they put a jolt of all things into a blaster with that much barrel and charged $120 for it. And Hyper just offends me that they're not even including enough grounds to fill the Blaster even once

[@sillysalmoninc.]

Your POV on the thunder shot is slightly flawed. The “better” version is actually the full production model. The flawed one was actually the real prototype that somehow slipped out and was produced along with the production model. It was a weird situation that happened and we shouldn’t fully forgive Buzzbee for it but we still shouldn’t completely shun them

[@flametitan100]

From what I understand, what happened was that Buzzbee has two factories, and one factory went with the earlier design, and the other went with the final design, so for a while _both_ were floating around in the market, with the worse version coming from the factory with higher output. However, they specifically recalled the product so that the inferior version could get off the shelves pronto. Which is faster than what Nerf did with the Warden, to my knowledge.

[@southamericanerfer]

It's so strange for me to think that hyper was actually something, feels like a fever dream

[@cadenbarnfather1434]

Its that one series that feels like a off-brand made in china copy but actually existed

[@cadenbarnfather1434]

I guess thats like most blasters now anyway

[@deez2908]

I liked the ultra switch for the gimmick but it was bad I admit. I got the Star Wars blaster and it came with the barrel broken off of the receiver. I’m gonna use the receiver for a vid though

[@nicholasmazzarella2720]

Lord Drac Amazing video. Spot on. Happy Holidays

[@reedpratt1985]

Actually if I recall correctly with the buzzbee revolver, most of the KZbinrs got the flawed version that was breaking. Buzzbee reached out and said "oops that was the old model and somehow the files got mixed up at the injection molding factory." Still annoying and a goof but the way you conveyed it made it seem like buzzbee was trying to pull one over and I think this was just a case of incompetence.

[@kingstonwvnerfer211]

We can all agree that Bobo was the absolute best part of this list by far

I actually do really enjoy the rush-40. I do agree with all points though, if I didn’t mail nerf in an inclosed, indoor modded league arena, I don’t think I would have ever touched hyper considering the high price for smaller rival. The capacity is quite nice if you can deal with the semi-often jamming

🤣bobo's rant and dracs reaction priceless

[@tacklengrapple6891]

I feel kinda bad for Buzz Bee because before this year I had never bought one of their blasters before because I thought they weren’t any good. However, their Adventure Force Triggerfire and Air Warriors Sidewinder are two of the funnest blaster’s I’ve ever used!

i like how drac is just absolutely dying in the mando blaster segment

[@Zoomed_Out_Tahova]

The opening of Bobo poking Drac triggered my Evangelion 3.0+1.0 flashbacks 🤣

[@AllinWhenPlaying]

Claw and it's variants is actually unique good in a way (apart from what it is) as it has a super easy access to the spring and VERY durable shell that let's you go a bit crazy on the spring as long as you have one that fits, that's not the easy part. I managed to get mine to over 110-130FPS (even better with half-darts which are also more accurate there), it is ridiculous to prime, sure, but the trigger catch works and it has a real punch. Obviously the AR and short barrels are an issue here - but on the other hand you can get them for 1-2$/£. That's good even if you will only salvage the spring. So I would say this is potentially the best "baby's first modded springer" there is.

[@user-cn9ep5pb2b]

One of the best nerf war taunts of all time "U Think this is primed? TOO BAD! IT'S NOT!"

Best thing you can do with the Amp is to do the Kury dual stage pulsar mod. It’s an incredibly ingenious mod. Hits 220 avg, 230 highs on 3s. Thanks Kury!

[@kingstonwvnerfer211]

I do like the focus because the amp is great for me because the trigger pull is smooth and the FPS is great and now we have ultra accustrike so now it’s useable,

[@CRNerf]

I actually like the fang. I cut down the barrels and cut out the dart posts and it's a pretty good office short dart blaster.

[@ASMRKlotz]

[@kwinohi]

I figured hyper wasn't that good, but was still interested in picking up the pistol. Definitely reconsidering, that ammo situation has so many cons, with the only pro being it's smaller than rival. Glad rival isn't dead, favorite line by far.

[@ethandebruyne9206]

I really like the pistol. Only time I’m using it is indoors so don’t have to worry about losing ammo or dirty ammo. It’s fun and not too expensive but nothing in the video is inaccurate about hyper pretty spot on.

[@Maniac4Bricks]

[@michaellee4276]

We need Hopper fed internal magazines for spherical ammo. Imagine an Artemis with a hopper on top. While you are shooting out of one magazine, another one is being refilled, either with a battery powered mechanism or one powered by the prime. It loads like a Nemesis, shoots like an Artemis or a Charger or a Khaos. That might fix Hyper (and make the Infinus gimmick useful). Hopper reloading is great, but it is unacceptable that you don't know what is going to happen when you pull the trigger. It is unacceptable that you have to shake the damn blaster to make it function. I want nothing to do with Hyper or the Persemesitheus for that reason. (and why use a Hades when you can use a Nexus?)

[@Josh24861]

[@shaunteckno]

Awesome video. I am a blind Nerf enthusiast, and I totally agree that the hyper Blasters are the worst. I don’t have any, nor do I plan to get any.

[@robertbrunello]

I'd argue the hyper Rush-40 is great with the hop up muzzle and upgrade spring.

[@LordDraconical]

Id argue its still a rubber ball blaster and has no business running about with the nerf logo on it. (definitely the best of the batch)

[@katherinespezia4609]

It's weird how the last few years have been amazing for the nerf hobby and terrible for the Nerf brand.
