Regarding the Ultra darts being recolored; There were a few polypropelyne training swords around for a bit that weren't just black, so it's definitly possible to color them, but I don't know if those were just painted, and I don't know why I haven't seen them in a few years, so it might be that the dyes weaken the plastic.

Thanks for taking the plunge for this video, very informative and helpful on a subject we've all wondered over the past few months once we learned Ultra is a close fit to old Mega. Shamefully I don't have any of the blasters compatible but maybe with a little breeching of the barrels I can use up to 3 of them (I can testify the Ratchet Blaster is tragically fragile - broke after my second use of a dart in it). And I dig that Ultra 95 design. Figures that the blaster named Ultra previous to the current line is compatible with Ultra darts, really makes you think 🤔

The problem with the crossbow wasn't really the ammo, though. It's that-- as you say -- 25 years isn't kind to plastic. They started to crumble in the mid 2000s, which lead to designs like the plusbow--which eventually just resolved into the caliburn (effectively a bunch of old crossbow mods that uses magazines). If you have a crossbow right now, and take it to a war, its priming handle will snap in like an hour.
