Scored an Aces of Spades pre-order today! Even though I'm a Day 1 player who still gets on regularly, my gameplay is generally low skill stuff so I had no chance of making it happen within the initial window. But I was on at noon today thanks to watching your video this morning! For some reason I had it in my head that it was going to open up on the 29th... Anyhow, I made it happen and some thanks must go to the FNC!
Siren has had a rough start due to failure to follow through with pre-orders, ignoring customer inquiries for months, shipping blasters with barrels that are too narrow a diameter for other brands of half length darts to work. Plus the prices went up.
Preorder 2 of them last week and they arrived yesterday afternoon. I absolutely love them! They are absolutely worth it, especially for veterans and die hard Destiny fans.
As much as I like AoS, copy pasting paints of another version isn't my cup of tea Although it's great to see that the blaster itself is a really good spin on the revolver form factor. Most may not like having them electronics for the sake of good ol' Hammershot priming mech but I personally always liked the idea of the Ultra 2 more.
The Aliens Pulse Rifle recreated the hobby's mega masterkey HvZ rifle, and this has finally provided us with a compnay made elite flywheel revolver. It's nice that they sneak in these types of products into their brand collabs. I hope to see some of the other art disputes settled as well as Tofu's seems to have been - wanted to give that larger issue more time but we can fit so only so much - worth looking into though. -KT
@@frozenfade I’ve seen it launch the barrel only once. An isolated example does not indicate a poor product. I have used 3 Gnarl blasters and they all work great. My buddies used them in a college campus war and had no issues, just make sure to prime the handle all the way back and forward
@@frozenfade I have seen reports from people with connections to NSI that the barrel hold issue has been fixed after the initial wave of manufacturing but I can't confirm that well enough to report on it. -KT
After the reviews and posts that I have seen so far, I canceled my pre-order for both the Blink and Maulr. I'm considering a BK1s with Argus Mod Works bullpup kit when it releases.
@@QuietWyatt2005yeah some in the hobby have this idea that if a new release isn't completely better than existing options it a waste of plastic. I do agree that 50 cent per dart seems high but, the blasters seem to be a great value and getting these on store shelves is huge.
@@QuietWyatt2005 the darts are not only incredibly expensive but laughably bad. We are supposed to be welcoming of terrible products with horrible prices? What a dumb take.
@@QuietWyatt2005 except the maulr hits nowhere near the claims from the early paid reviews. The blasters also seem to be breaking very fast, the darts are expensive and fragile. What risks did they take other than copying other people's designs poorly? I guess some people can be happy with bad products just because they are cheap. I am not a fan of stuff that breaks and doesn't perform like they promised.
Correction:
4:29 The Terran Pistol Mk 2.0 can be tuned from 110fps-220fps. I misspoke, and did not catch my mistake.
Always looking forward to these videos! Great work!
I never awesome video from the Foam News Collective!
Thanks for the shout-out on the toothpick, I'm having a lot of fun trying to push it up past 200 fps, great video y'all.
I’ve been searching dollar generals trying to find a Twist Fury so I can “Toothpick” it!
I knew something like this would happen and I'm so glad you did it so well. -KT
@@TheBeencalled I'm just searching for one period. -KT
I just had to do it justice
@@Nerf_News I found one this afternoon! Very cool blaster. Can’t wait to see what my girls think of it.

I hope everyone watches to the very end! 😄. Thank you again for he news!
I knew I could count on you to make it to the end lol.

Ty for the loudmouth shout out vile, and great episode as always
Loudmouth looks absolutely sick, great job Grim! -KT
Great episode, as always! Thank you guys for putting together such a one-stop shop for hobby news!

Another great episode thank you guys!
Will the stream of the tournament be on this channel?
It will not - it will either be on BTA or Ragfest’s channel, we’ll post that info in community or something when it gets closer! -KT
KT's singing voice ❤️
One does not simply broadcast into Mordor
There is evil there which does not sleep (because it has jet lag). -KT
Please pardon my surprise, that song at the end was actually pretty good. Nerf Grunge? Yes please.
hey, I made the news again
booya, get news’d-KT
FNC
Sorry I was late to the party but it was another fantastic news video. Keep up the great work.
I like those pink and yellow darts! 🤩
Is that Coop772's caliburn at 10:54?😊
Lol totally making Toothpick as soon as I can get my hands on a Twist Fury. Here's hoping they come to Target soon.
Love my Skewer and thought about making a Harpoon.
Omg someone made a blaster of my namesake 😆
Awesome compilation as always!
Im late, pizza kept me from commenting
The ending song was great!
Anyone have the link to the ace of spades?
Added it to the description! -KT
Had to beat General Stryfe here
You beat me too
Lol

On TaoBao we can already buy wasp77 for 120$
Siren Maulr is amazing, purchased it with a refill
Gnarl is great... If you want a blaster that shoots it's entire barrel out of the blaster at people

Having fun with mine, showed up strangely early one day and I've been playing with it since.
10 dollars for 20 darts the funniest thing I have ever seen. Siren seems to be totally garbage.
@@frozenfade I highly disagree and I’m disappointed in the hobby’s hostility toward the newcomer

@@icanhazgoodgame3845 exactly, the blasters take risks in design and fps numbers
