Hey look, it's a new post!



Since I haven't posted anything in over a month let's just get Nerfy... First thing is my STRYFE mod. It's been a while since I've actually done a good mod. So I took a little time to do this STRYFE that I picked up last Christmas for $10.
I just removed the mechanical and electrical locks and also the thermistor and painted it...                                          
It was like it was made to mod... no wonder this blaster has been re-shelled so many times.

...a little bit of painting
I finished up with this!
 
 As I said all the locks are removed and now it runs on either stock batteries or higher voltage without overheating. I painted the proximity barrel to match but  all the original yellow N-Strike accessories match as well . I'm not too much into modding my blasters but every now and then I like to do something. I think perhaps Google+ may have had something to do with it too. These days you can find me spending far to much time hanging out in the NERF or NOTHING! community. I never thought I'd get involved with social media and now as fate would have it, not only do I have my blog but a Google + community as well. What's next... a YouTube channel?
 
That's not all!
 I'd like to be telling you I have a new HYPERFIRE, but alas... I did get a N-Strike GLOWSHOT.For about $6 the GLOWSHOT is lots of fun. It's a single shot, front loader that compares in performance to a SNAPFIRE, TRIAD, or JOLT. What makes this little NERF pistol special is when you put 2 AA batteries in it lights up!

The translucent body of the blaster is illuminated from within by two L.E.D. lights. The lights are activated by a pressure switch/trigger that runs along the top half of the back of the grip. It's a great little indoor blaster particularly at night.
 
 
Finally I have a new pegboard display to show you. I've been wanting to do this for a while and it not only turned out well and got some blasters put away but inspired the reorganization of some other blasters too.
 
My new pegboard wall.
 I'm hoping to post more as I get a few of the new blasters hitting the shelves. Just wanted to confirm that this blog hadn't gone inactive and to thank my dedicated readers and everyone else for the pageviews...
