@WalcomS7 Hey, I just wanted to let you know that there’s someone pretending to be you that’s posting links to a Telegram page. Not sure if you've had this issue before
They might already offer the drums. I know if you contact them on their website they'll email you an order form where you can buy spare shells and magazines.
@@The_flop-dont.stop0413 unfortunately this blaster in its current configuration. Would only support a round drum magazine. A higher capacity drum could be possible tho
This is probably Buzzbee's best offering since the Sentinel. For $30, you get a high cap, drum fed dart flinger that can spit at 90fps. Also kinda interesting that they went with the progressive rev and fire trigger seen mostly in community designs, which I think is a first for a big brand blaster manufacturer. Even Dart Zone hasn't capitalized on it yet.
That slow rate of fire and huge capacity should be great for long lasting suppressive fire with how long it would last before needing a reload. Making it fire faster might give it a new role. Another idea, dual wielding but only shooting one blaster at a time would probably give you enough time to bake a cake and make a new attack plan.
If the rof could be increased to 5 dps, you would have about 15sec of continuous fire on a full drum to fight off a charging horde. That's a lot of fire power for a loadout that could be as light as 1 blaster and a bag of darts. I could see people minimizing the barrel or taking advantage of it to integrate a masterkey. Good review, Walcom!
The firing speed reminds me a lot of the Tommy 20 from a long time ago *EDIT: Does this make the third "Tommy gun" style blaster that Buzz Bee has made?
Its kinda cool, but I will stick with the Villainator as its not as bulky, I can fire it as fast as needed and no batteries to mess with. I have noticed my local DFW Walmart stores bumped the price on Villainator to 23.96 from its 19.96 price. Speaking of the Tomahawk my Nephew tried it at JEBB 7 this year, nothing but problems, jammed a lot and the stupid drum kept falling out.
Picked 1 up a little over a week ago for a LARP Game I play - the trigger-to-fire delay on the first shot SUCKS (rev>index drum>fire) so I'd like to see if I can rectify that but it otherwise worked great! Had a few random 'blanks' but no jamming and otherwise consistent.
I thought that it was something like the Villainator but with almost twice the capacity and I got really excited for a sec. But then I found out that it's a flywheeler. Still cool tho.
I feel like the reviews on buzzbee blasters are incomplete without a firing demonstration with proper, decent quality darts. It's hard to get a sense of how good a blaster is when we only see it using low quality darts. I don't know if you'll read this, but it would be nice if in future videos you would show every blaster firing at least a few shots with reliable darts like Adventure Force waffles.
That's not a bad platform for hvz because reloading on the fly is gonna be super easy and if you squad up you could be the main crowd control with this
Is the Volt that lives on the range yours by chance? You don't have to answer that, I just think it was a cool car for it's time, even though it's been eclipsed by virtually every new EV.
Absolutely the ultimate HVZ weapon.

Hello WalcomS7, have you ever taken apart the Adventure Force Alpha Auto 72 dart blaster? I bought one of these toy guns at a local Wal Mart and it didn't work, even though I followed the instructions and installed good batteries. I took the gun apart and found out that (if the muzzle is on the left) then just to the lower left of the top flywheel there is a pair of electrical contacts that I had to squeeze together to make the gun work (I did get the gun to work). The advantage of being forced to do this was that I could see the inner workings of the gun in action. However, the contacts have no apparent purpose such as being part of a safety latch, button, or lever. What are these contacts' purpose, and if I solder a jumper across them to enable the gun to work, will this do some kind of damage to the gun? Sincerely, Ian Douglas
the only thing sucks about this gun is that it hurts so bad, the second I unboxxed it my brother shot me in the back 5 times and it hurted so badly, i havent used it in a real nerf war but lets hope i dont make anyone cry.
Well, Buzz Bee, ya done good I'd say. It's not absolutely mind-blowingly fantastic, but hey, it's amazing progress from last year, and they even left open room for improvements so I'd say they seem to be back pretty solid this year.
Dang, and I thought my villainator was the holy grail of drum guns. Definitely gonna have to pick this baby up! Honestly the only issue I Have with it is the really goofy looking colors on it. Never painted my guns but I might have to make an exception for this one……
I'm assuming the too freely spinning drum would be fixable by putting a stronger clicky spring in it like we used to do with boomco dynamags. Would be nice to see that confirmed before buying one though. Maybe put in a better motor for slightly rapider fire?
This is very nice, I lose interest in revolvers around 20-30 dart capacity, but this definitely has its use for someone. After a certain point the drum and load up time just seems overkill and not worth the bulk I guess, I think I would rather just reload more often or use mags
Kick-ass blaster to start the comeback video with! The Alpha Auto 72 looks epic!!! Update: The original comment I made here sure as hell aged like milk. The awful fire rate ruins it for me!
Finally. I'm finally getting my "RATTLE EM', BOYS" fix with a blaster like this. Well, it's not as fast as I would have hoped, but eh, it's still pretty fuckin good. Keep it up please, Buzz Bee.
Still find it funny how buzz bee in one try made a better drum than any of the dart zone drums with the villainator darts fall out if they been used a little and the tomahawk and tomcat want you to break your darts to load it
hey Walcom, love your videos man. I just rewatched the Jankblade video because I've recently been getting back into mech anime and recently got my hands on a Gundam Exia for my figure collection
Use rechargeable batteries. It wil be more powerful and faster. Nimh AA cells deliver energy A LOT better than alkalines and no, the slightly lower voltage (1.2v per cell) will not matter.
@WalcomS7 I’ve got two of these, installed different brand new batteries in each, and still can’t get them to work. When I pull the trigger there is no power, no revving, etc. Is there an on/off switch I’m missing somewhere? Someone please help!

@WalcomS7 Hey, I just wanted to let you know that there’s someone pretending to be you that’s posting links to a Telegram page. Not sure if you've had this issue before
If that can be modded to fire faster it would be sick. Buzzbee should also release the drums for purchase separately.
They might already offer the drums. I know if you contact them on their website they'll email you an order form where you can buy spare shells and magazines.
@@m00k61 what’s the web to get to buZz bee because I heard they shell eject
I think they should sell another type of magazine that’s a rectangle
@@The_flop-dont.stop0413 unfortunately this blaster in its current configuration. Would only support a round drum magazine. A higher capacity drum could be possible tho
@@madbr3991 to be honest it doesn’t need a larger mag.

The single trigger is nothing new. BuzzBee fly wheelers have been that way forever.
No, almost all of the flywheel blasters I’ve seen from BuzzBee have a single trigger
Just when I think that drum mags can't get bigger... 😆 Super cool blaster!

I agree
We are happy to see that you got this one! Enjoy and have awesome summer with Adventure Force Alpha Auto 72 😄😎
I would use this in hvz, I’d carry one extra drum and a secondary but this is awesome for topping off
Look at buzzbee throwing their hat into the game. Going for the cheap fun part of Nerf is so smart for them
This is the best lmg made by any company yet, it can be reloaded with another drum is the main reason. If you mod it you can make it shoot faster.
If the rof could be increased to 5 dps, you would have about 15sec of continuous fire on a full drum to fight off a charging horde. That's a lot of fire power for a loadout that could be as light as 1 blaster and a bag of darts. I could see people minimizing the barrel or taking advantage of it to integrate a masterkey. Good review, Walcom!
Cracked up when you hit the power line and put the hit marker up in the air. Not sure I've seen you do that before. XD
Budget friendly tomahawk 60.
8/10 recommended
The firing speed reminds me a lot of the Tommy 20 from a long time ago
*EDIT: Does this make the third "Tommy gun" style blaster that Buzz Bee has made?
what were the others?
Tommy 12, Mech Tommy 20, Automatic Tommy 20, Power Mech are the ones I can think of throughout Buzzbee's history
Because they want you to keep the change, ya filthy animals.
We definitely need a flywheel version of the villainator from Dart Zone.
I can imagine using the drums as armor the more you fire the weaker you become becuase you are firing your armor
I hope this gets more mod support than the Tomahawk 60.
Its kinda cool, but I will stick with the Villainator as its not as bulky, I can fire it as fast as needed and no batteries to mess with. I have noticed my local DFW Walmart stores bumped the price on Villainator to 23.96 from its 19.96 price.
Speaking of the Tomahawk my Nephew tried it at JEBB 7 this year, nothing but problems, jammed a lot and the stupid drum kept falling out.
inflation moment
Reminds me of the buzzbee brute, which is comparable to Nerf's rapidstrike. Well done buzzbee.
@4:28 oh hey an Ace Ventura reference.
SHIKAKA
Another amazing Video as Always. Happy to see Buzzbee has quit huffing glue and put a normal sized grip on a blaster for once.
Picked 1 up a little over a week ago for a LARP Game I play - the trigger-to-fire delay on the first shot SUCKS (rev>index drum>fire) so I'd like to see if I can rectify that but it otherwise worked great! Had a few random 'blanks' but no jamming and otherwise consistent.
full auto ?? whatever
72 dart capacity ?? 👍🏼
A GOOD SIZE AND COMFORTABLE GRIP?? perfection and thanks BuzzBee
I've read reviews of the tomahawk dart pusher breaking when going too fast. I have one and can imagine it happening so i don't go fast because of that
The fact this is still being sold today shows how good it is
Want one. But I live in the UK, so not anytime soon. And nice to see a decent price, too much stuff in the hobby moving towards airsoft prices.
For once Buzzbee made a good blaster. Is this the start of their redemption arc?
I thought that it was something like the Villainator but with almost twice the capacity and I got really excited for a sec. But then I found out that it's a flywheeler. Still cool tho.

Finally I can reinact the st Valentine’s Day massacre with the neighbors 5 year old kids
When I saw the title, the fist thought in my mind was: "Oh my god! The Tommy 20 is back and better than ever!"
Finally, someone who appreciates the great soundtrack of One Step From Eden
I love the cute little walrus you used in the technical difficulties shot
I love this blaster already! The Mod Protentional has me foaming at the mouth!
I would 100% get it if an upgraded flywheel cage and battery cover were made for it

I should finish my cages...
It’s good to see that BuzzBee is still capable of making nice products
the only thing sucks about this gun is that it hurts so bad, the second I unboxxed it my brother shot me in the back 5 times and it hurted so badly, i havent used it in a real nerf war but lets hope i dont make anyone cry.

If they release a belt feeder capable of 4-5 shots/sec, then neat.
Especially if they introduce new low-profile belts with it.

Unfortunately it looks like the Dart Zone Tomahawk has been discontinued. The Alpha Auto might be the next best thing for fly wheel drum blasters.
Finally a good blaster from buzzbee
i got that thing for Christmas and I love it, only minor complaints is that it feels a bit cheap and is way too slow for a flywheeler
Is it cross-compatible with the drums from the other Buzzbee/Adventure Force drums?
We’ve come a long way since the original Tommy20.
I got that cheap.
RATTLE EM BOYS!
This is very nice, I lose interest in revolvers around 20-30 dart capacity, but this definitely has its use for someone.
After a certain point the drum and load up time just seems overkill and not worth the bulk I guess, I think I would rather just reload more often or use mags
buzzbee long distance darts are perfect for shotguns
This thing seems hella cool. I can see it being very popular for sure.
Would honestly just get a DZ tomahawk 60 considering that I've not have had a good experience with buzz bee blasters
just got mine a few days ago great value for the money too bad the drum moves so easily.
Kick-ass blaster to start the comeback video with! The Alpha Auto 72 looks epic!!!
Update: The original comment I made here sure as hell aged like milk. The awful fire rate ruins it for me!

Trumpet walrus.
Walcom. Just curious if is the drum is compatible with the Dartzone Magnum?
Intriguing… Wonder how it would go on a Lipo 🤷♂️
if this blaster is spray painted into a thompson smg color scheme this honestly will look amazing
The problem with that is that people might think that you are using an actual gun if you ever bring it outside.
The Gundam shirt is epic
A GRIP FOR HUMAN HANDS FROM BUZZ BEE?!?!?! NANI
ok, hear me out, Tommy sub-machine gun
The race to 100 rounds... I'm here for it!
Still find it funny how buzz bee in one try made a better drum than any of the dart zone drums with the villainator darts fall out if they been used a little and the tomahawk and tomcat want you to break your darts to load it
Finally, a double capacity, motorized Villanator.!!
Ok I’m a grown man and not into foam flinging and all my nerf guns from when I was young are gone but I might go pick on of these up
I'm curious if the drum for this blaster would fit in the alphahawk and if not then I guess I'll be rewiring another blaster soon
I'll probably pick up a villinaitor and a tomahawk for my 100fps cap larp. Though this one looks like fun too!
*_Rattle 'em boys_*
Great videos man 👍🏻 . Keep it up! the million will come soon 😁
Are any of the drums from any of the other blasters cross compatible?
This is basically an auto tommy 20 modernized and holds more darts.
hey Walcom, love your videos man. I just rewatched the Jankblade video because I've recently been getting back into mech anime and recently got my hands on a Gundam Exia for my figure collection
Looking forward to see the results when someone mods one for higher rate of fire 😀
i would love to see a modified version that fires faster
Yo buzzbee redemption arc ?
Glad your back CUZZ 🙏🙏🙏
just gonna say i hate when people in the nerf community say crap like "It Is A tHoMsOn GuN" when anything has a front grip and a drum
Basically a villianator if it was auto
They unblurred the photo.
RATTLE'UM BOYS!!!!

thompsons with drum mags are usually 50 round
i like it

X-shot dart is good to use in something like that.
Nice gundam shirt
fun looking and a bit of modability...hmmmm may have to get this one ty sir
Se lo compre a mi hijo ,le instale las pilas y no pasa nada , como puedo repararla ?
It's currently on clearance for $8, hope that helps
snagged a villainator, night tek, and a rapidstrike knockoff at goodwill for about 8 bucks.
This is the second non nerf blaster to have an N-Strike stock point, has the patent run out then?
It's three now if you include the new DZ Mk 1.2
well, this will be a fun mod project
One of my favorite blasters yet
Another amazing blaster that we cant get over in the uk 😭
I can use multiple drums? Damn I want to use multiple blasters
Modding community: Hold my beer…
And what batteries does it take, didn't catch him show the battery trey.
Six AA batteries
I like your gundam shirt, sieg Zion
