Good-bye September

new blasters part 1


It's literally the last hour of September and I've realized I haven't posted anything all month. I want to get something new up especially for my dedicated NERFARIUM readers... thanks for bearing with me. It's also the end of summer so I thought maybe I'd recap what's been going on the past few weeks. 
Of course these days I post or comment on  NERF or NOTHING! on a daily basis. It has become arguably the best NERF community on Google+ with over 460 members and growing. Unfortunately a lot of the time and energy that I used to devote to NERFARIUM goes there. But that doesn't mean that I'm done blogging, in fact I'm going to try and divide my time a little more evenly between the two. But enough about that...I've picked up a few new blasters lately. They've all been blasters that weren't necessarily high on my "wish list" and regularly a bit pricey, but I found some deals. If you want me to write a detailed review of any of these leave a comment.
Let's start with the Doomlands 2169 blasters. I got both a VAGABOND and a LAWBRINGER.

The VAGABOND came first, I found it in a Kmart marked down to 16 bucks... it's so cool how could I resist? It's a big gun, about 21'' (53cm) long with a larger grip. This pump action, 6 shot revolver has about the same power as a STRONGARM or DISRUPTOR.
It's just so much Bigger & Badder! I liked it enough to start looking a little harder at the Doomlands series. Then I found the LAWBRINGER at Walmart.com for $17 instead of the regular $35.
A 12- shot, hammer-action revolver... It's like a giant HammerShot with a butt stock that holds 12 extra darts. I found it usable with one hand although easier with two, and speaking of extra darts...

I found some of the fancy signature darts online for 6 bucks. The 30 darts was the perfect amount to completely fill both blasters. All said and told I'm pretty pleased with my Doomlands load-out such as it is. I'd like to find a half-priced NEGOTIATOR next.
Well,  I missed my deadline. It's 1 am which means that it's technically October 1st and I didn't get a post up for the month of September. Since I have some more new blasters, I'll post this now and continue with my next post... be ready for that in the next day and until then...
