DEMOLISHER TIME

Back in September I told you about a trip to Wal-mart where I picked up a Buzz Bee Extreme Blastzooka for less than a third of the price of a Nerf Demolisher 2 in 1. I've wanted a Demolisher since they first hit the Nerf seen earlier this year, but the nearly $40 price tag just seemed a little too much. I knew if I waited a while the price would come down and now my friends that time has come!
I picked up my own DEMOLISER at that same Wal-mart on sale for $29.88 .  They seem to be on sale everywhere so now might be a good time to get one.

My New DEMOLISHER 2 IN 1
Wal-mart   $29.88  reg price $38.88
Target        $29.99  reg price $39.99
Toys R Us $29.99  reg price $39.99
Kmart        $34.99  reg price $44.99
Kohls         $55.24  reg price $64.99
Costco       $30.00  2 clip, 20 dart special pack as reported on reddit.com .

This blaster is even more fun than I thought it was going to be. I like it's a good hefty size. The missile launcher works better than I expected, and the dart range was superior to my Stryfe not to mention my Demolisher operates well with any clip unlike my Stryfe. Now that I have both I'm not saying that the Stryfe isn't a great blaster, but I am saying the Demolisher is more than just a re-shell of the Stryfe, as it has so often been  called.

18 dart clip, I think I will do a seal mod on the missile launcher.


25 dart DRUM MAG, I might also do a voltage mod?

Another bonus is that the Demolisher will fire the missiles from my Blastzooka (and visa versa). I have yet to do any real head- to- head testing, but it seems the Demolisher would have a higher ROF, not sure about range?
 Demolisher and Blastzooka missiles are interchangeable.


As always there are a couple of things that I would have done different... 1. The color. It has a barrel extension mount on it, why orange? No barrel extensions match, same goes for stocks. I guess that's what paint is for.

the RETALIATOR barrel fit loosely...
 
 2. Another thing I would have liked to have seen on the Demolisher would have been a pump-up pressurized tank missile launching system like the Blastzooka or Titan! Lastly is the 2 in 1 part of the name. DEMOLUSHER is an awesome name for a blaster, but the "2 in 1" makes me think of a hair care product... "The Demolisher 2 in 1, conditions while it shampoos!" Ha ha.
Joking aside, I think this is a great blaster exceeding both its reputation and my expectations. I even like the 10 round banana clip just for the cosmetic value.

Banana clip gives other blasters a tacti-cool advantage.
 Now that it is available at around $30 I think the Demolisher is well worth having. I'm pleased with mine and even happier that I got it at a reasonable price. Maybe now is the time for you to pick one up too!
