How do we explain Jurassic World releasing only 22 years after Jurassic Park (or 14 years after Jurassic Park III) and being successful, if the 30 year nostalgia cycle theory was hypothetically true?
I'm not saying in any way shape or form that the theory is some universal law, I just mean there is some merit to the idea of things becoming popular again every 30 years. A definite example of this being untrue would be the 2010s, I personally didn't see much of the 80s in the 2010s. I'm pretty sure the entire basis for that theory is Back to the Future anyway. I kind of said it as a joke, and I see what you are saying
Color blocking through separate pieces of plastic is always better than factory painting, in my opinion. Both looks better off the shelf, and gives more control for custom paint jobs.
It’s a triad with break action, hammer action and a stock. And 4x the price. Thanks hasbro Edit: and you can use it like a puppet. Sooo... totally worth it
Triad but more pricey, can be a shotgun if you don’t hit the smart ar, cool aesthetics, bigger, has a stock with dart storage, and can be a triceratops puppet
I feel like a cool integration project could be done with this for those less into the dino styling. That plus the modability, I think something could really be done with it.
This thing is like the cousin to the Fortnite SR. Both are hammer-primed smart restrictor pistols, you're trading the SR's 4th barrel for extra dart storage. Also, what are you even supposed to use as iron sights for the Tricerablast?
What's the point of irons if the darts drop too quickly for them to be effective. Maybe you could use the three horns on the front as irons, like a grenade launcher.
I'm interested in the Tricerablast's Plunger and Spring. Apparently, the Spring has bigger diameter than the usual Hammershot spring. I want to see if a K26 will fit.
@Risen General well, that's pump action with gears, so it's much easier priming. Hammer priming is miles more difficult, you're pulling directly against the spring with just a thumb or two, so a strong spring in hammer primed blasters really sucks.
The internals for this particular blaster actually are pretty traditional for springers, unlike other hammer actions, so you could mod this fairly easily. It's pretty interesting to say the least
Yes it is indeed a dinoblaster and about that charging people with a blaster, back in the day we used to close combat with praxis and vigilons in the park till someone was bruised
A funny thing I’ve found with the tricerablast is that, if loaded with whistler darts, it shoots out the top dart at slightly under its usual velocity, and spits out the other two at considerably less (a few feet at most) at the same time. Meaning you can kind of get a shotgun effect with it.
This is a pretty cool blaster. I like how you bop it on the nose and it just opens its mouth for you to feed it darts! I can see some people modding this sledgefire-style to be a shotgun which would be cool. Thanks for the video Drac! P.S. Loving the hoodie!
Wanted to mod blasters for years...boy got one of these for his birthday, I got one and though it was merely cosmetic, this was my first custom..removed hinge jaw, horns, and dart stock, then gave it a black and silver paintjob
Idea. New Game Mode either Dino Hunter or A Power Ranger Monster hunter. Like HVZ but you have to find the right dino gun to take down the right monster XD
My son and I noticed that if you shaved off the trike skull and slightly modified the stock, you could totally mod this blaster into Boba Fett's blaster!
This blaster reminds me of Boba Fetts blaster. I would like a normal/non dino version of this blaster, maybe mag fed instead. Also I would like to paint this. I'll paint it to look normal but paint the dino white, like its the skull of one I killed
Hasbro: ok, last year Dart Zone destroyed us. What should we do? Worker 1: maybe advance into half length darts which overall improves speed of the dart and get rid of Ultra? Hasbro: not quite what we are looking for Worker 2: Bring back nerf vortex so people in the hobby will be flooded with nostalgia! Hasbro: THAT IS TOO EXPENSIVE Worker 3: What if we made a new line full of gimmicks and completely forget about the zombie strike line Hasbro: EXACTLY what we are looking for
So did Pat INTENTIONALLY not show Baby Grogu on your back to drive folks crazy??? The blaster looks ok, but Mando with the SOE logo looks VERY INTERESTING....🤔
Drac as far as I noticed or remember they've always used like a half dart style dart on their packaging even back in the elite days. maybe it just wasn't as apparent or blatant I don't think that they're trying to fake people out into think that they're making half darts I think that it's just a convenient way to waste less ink
Yo drac, would you mind doing a couple videos comparing some of the various flywheels, flywheel cages, motors, and other such types of items currently on the market? It's sometimes hard to get a good read on some of the stuff out there before buying if you're new to the modding hobby (like me)... I'm specifically looking for rival wheels/cages RN but a generic set of reviews would likely be good for a wider audience.
It's a fire-breathing dragon in "Hillbilly Dueling Pistol" form. I'm gonna get one, shove an Adventure Force Destroyer spring in, paint it up all nice-nice, and bring it to an HVZ once the all-clear sounds for large gatherings. And I don't really CARE if that pisses you off. THEY'RE TOYS. Toys are for children. Concentrating on "performance" and "competitive play" serves only to do to this hobby what happened to comic-books in the 90's... if this hobby doesn't refresh itself with a fresh crop of young'uns every so often, if we keep looking down our noses at anything not geared towards the adults modding their Stryfes to get darts screaming downrange at 200FPS, This Hobby Is Going To Vanish Up Its Own Asshole.
"But what if the Triad was a primary"
What if the triple jolt was a primary*
But What if the hammershot with the triad was a primary
The question that no one wanted an answer to...
More like double strike
But if you close your eyes....
30-year nostalgia cycle confirmed, something tells me dinosaurs are going to be big this decade
How do we explain Jurassic World releasing only 22 years after Jurassic Park (or 14 years after Jurassic Park III) and being successful, if the 30 year nostalgia cycle theory was hypothetically true?
@@stevenbobbybills That's fair, but isn't the final Jurassic Park film coming out this decade

Dinosaurs will always be popular. Despite how the outdated images of dinosaurs are more popular.
This was the happiest I've seen Drac with a Nerf brand blaster in like.......65 million years.

It’s a sledge fire reskin! Wait no, it’s a hammershot reskin! Oh wait, it’s a triad reskin!
Make up your mind Nerf!
It’s a triad with break action, hammer action and a stock. And 4x the price. Thanks hasbro
Edit: and you can use it like a puppet. Sooo... totally worth it
Triad but more pricey, can be a shotgun if you don’t hit the smart ar, cool aesthetics, bigger, has a stock with dart storage, and can be a triceratops puppet
Remove the smart AR and upgrade the spring, boom decent shotgun. Or just put in a stronger spring and get a hammer mod!
You look like a rock band 4 character
I think that this line is hasbro putting the nail in the coffin for the zombie strike line
Possibly
And then putting and freaking T-Rex on it!
As long as we get a hammershot reskin

the horns are the sights
Nerf: Wow tRiCeRa-BLaSt
Me: Just get a fricken triad
Me again: or a hammershot
wth is happening Hasbro
I mean, this I'm fine with. It's much more obviously a toy targeted at kids than a performance blaster for the hobbyists.
@@flametitan100 quite true tho lmao
I'm interested in the Tricerablast's Plunger and Spring. Apparently, the Spring has bigger diameter than the usual Hammershot spring. I want to see if a K26 will fit.
Nah but dinosaur look cool
Why the hell is it not a 3 shot shotgun?!?
Because hasbro hates us
Hammer priming a spring that would be able to fire 3 darts at a decent performance would be... Hell, to say the least. That's probably why.

Hi everyone, hope you all have a good day
I doin good how bout u
@@ronancarey296 good thank you!
That bump stock got my attention and never gave it back;
Yes it is indeed a dinoblaster and about that charging people with a blaster, back in the day we used to close combat with praxis and vigilons in the park till someone was bruised
Its not hotel. It’s trivago
I believe the tricerablast was a damaged sledgefire mold, and they fixed it up and went with it
This is what a triad primary would be like. 😂
The tricerblast has to be my favourite. Runner up would be the Stagosmash! 🎉
When the sledgefire has a child with a triad
i love the new dinosquad
A funny thing I’ve found with the tricerablast is that, if loaded with whistler darts, it shoots out the top dart at slightly under its usual velocity, and spits out the other two at considerably less (a few feet at most) at the same time. Meaning you can kind of get a shotgun effect with it.
finally! hasbro a makes a good and cool blaster line
This is a pretty cool blaster. I like how you bop it on the nose and it just opens its mouth for you to feed it darts! I can see some people modding this sledgefire-style to be a shotgun which would be cool. Thanks for the video Drac!

I like the Mando sweatshirt Drac!
My son and I noticed that if you shaved off the trike skull and slightly modified the stock, you could totally mod this blaster into Boba Fett's blaster!
I got one ordered today so it's arriving tomorrow been wanting it for weeks so I'm finally getting it
*Pros* The darts are wrapped in tissue paper
*Cons* Everything else
This is the most scientific I've ever seen Drac be!
Just getting into the nerf hobby, im personally still figuring out on where the 1~3 shot blasters are used in a nerf wars etc
i play airsoft but ngl its entertaining to see this kind of stuff
I mever thought of it as Triad re-skin
A custom Mando SOE hoodie? The connections run deep LULZ
Finally, we see Draco smiling
I want to get one of these and turn it into a hammer-primed shotgun pistol.
Nice kitsune reference.
Like for the Godzilla sound effect!
It really is a rock hard blaster 🤘🏻🖤🤘🏻
Great video sir. It needs to be integrated with a Sledgefire or Slingfire, but I like it, dinosaurs rock. Keep up the great work man.
The board meeting:
Ok ok ok so we learned that kids are apparently into to do is again so what can we do
Guns that look like Dino's
BRILLIANT
The secret gimmick of the tricera blast: you can use the head as a bayonet, real triceratops use their head to defend and attack
Need to get one for Blackjack
I heard from a Thunderdome video that you were in a robotics team in high school. I was just wondering what robotics team you were apart of?
This blaster reminds me of Boba Fetts blaster. I would like a normal/non dino version of this blaster, maybe mag fed instead. Also I would like to paint this. I'll paint it to look normal but paint the dino white, like its the skull of one I killed
I found this on sale for 5 USD for my first NERF purchase in multiple years.
Notification Squad™.
Hasbro: ok, last year Dart Zone destroyed us. What should we do?
Worker 1: maybe advance into half length darts which overall improves speed of the dart and get rid of Ultra?
Hasbro: not quite what we are looking for
Worker 2: Bring back nerf vortex so people in the hobby will be flooded with nostalgia!
Hasbro: THAT IS TOO EXPENSIVE
Worker 3: What if we made a new line full of gimmicks and completely forget about the zombie strike line
Hasbro: EXACTLY what we are looking for
They discontinued great lines like elite, modulus & accustrike. Then they continue lines like micro shots
thank god it is nerf might be taking things around
Yo Whats up drac it’s nerflover from twitch!
Noticed that he changed from "much love, nerf on" to "much love, blast on"
I bought this before watching only because dinosaurs are pretty cool
So did Pat INTENTIONALLY not show Baby Grogu on your back to drive folks crazy??? The blaster looks ok, but Mando with the SOE logo looks VERY INTERESTING....🤔
The blue part can remove or not?
Idk why this weapon just looks super cute lmao
my favorite dinosaur is the giganotosaurus
Cool
I got the stegosmash blaster
Du it gets you a tricera-blast I think you already know it.
Drac as far as I noticed or remember they've always used like a half dart style dart on their packaging even back in the elite days. maybe it just wasn't as apparent or blatant I don't think that they're trying to fake people out into think that they're making half darts I think that it's just a convenient way to waste less ink
They went full ooga booga
I saw ur tshirt THIS IS THE WAY
Cut off the stock and the front barrel bit and you have yourself a 3-shot secondary that is in theory better than the triad
Could paint and mod it to look like the M79 greande launcher from RE2.
I really wish they made it a shotgun like a tri strike re skin
Sill better than Ultra
1:30 that was Godzilla’s roar

Mighty Morphin Power rangers triceratops
Then with the trex we can use mighty Morphin red ranger or Dino fury red ranger which ever one you like best
It looks like a dinosaur sledge fire
Am I the only one that sees this as a secondary with a stock
“6’0 with proper man hands” mfw 6’4 with normal ass hands
*looks at my 5' 11" smallish man hands*
Aww man...
ya new stuff from nerf that is not a complete waste of money
Mod it, Mo powaaa! MedaBots! what?
2:58 it's like a ratchet blast
Mod idea: saw off the stock to get a long pistol
Hay.
is it worth the money?
It’s the triad trex three
Its look like a gun of Power rangers dino charge🤣🤣🤣
It’s a half hammer shot half triad
This could have been a shotgun at least, without those shells
i didnt even know i was early
TRIcera blast has 3 ammo capacity
It's a fire-breathing dragon in "Hillbilly Dueling Pistol" form. I'm gonna get one, shove an Adventure Force Destroyer spring in, paint it up all nice-nice, and bring it to an HVZ once the all-clear sounds for large gatherings. And I don't really CARE if that pisses you off.

Should’ve called it the “Tricera-shot”
y r u watching this video watch a triad vid instead it's better
I wanna see someone turn this thing into the loch n load from tf2
but can you fanfire?
It looks like a power rangers gun
I just have one thing to say . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Go, Go, Power Rangers!!
You don't know my younger siblings
Hey
I was mistaken caouse of the gun its is a shot gun and the other is a pistol
hi
Dinos shooting dino eggs huh?
Anybody else see the skull in the stock?
