Was wondering how an extended hopper would work on this one. Extending out of the side would be a little weird, but you could probably design a version that clamped to the picatiny rail. I'll stick with my perses thou.
I made a calculator for proton pack calculations, given the fact that the Monolith holds 45 Rival rounds it should fit roughly 150 Hyper rounds, assuming they have a diameter of 14.8mm (Diameter taken from patent filing, if anybody has a better measurement let me know). With the current diameter estimate, a Rival blaster will hold roughly 3.4 Hyper rounds for each Rival round that fits in it. A 150-round Hyper blaster for $35 is absolutely crazy and probably outclasses anything Hasbro will ever release in the Hyper line.
my brother and I played with a couple dart zone guns that were literally 10 dollars after we hadn’t played with a nerf gun for like 10 years. And the power and accuracy were so much more fun than I remember. I like this brand.
Thanks for this review already Drac! Hopefully you get more early review blasters soon like the Conquest and Stryker. Also I can’t wait for whatever you made for the Rush 40
Nice video. It’s pretty cool how Dart Zone really is making something for everybody right now. I’d watch the mod guide for that. Maybe paint it up that green that came on the Zombie Strike Longshot 🤘🏻 Keep up the great work.
Man, it's awesome to hear you respecting Wegman's, lol. I grew up in the NE, moved to the midwest, and ended up in FL. I went back to my hometown on business a few years ago, and had the chance to stop and chat with a friend at the Wegman's my mom shopped at when I was a kid, and that store is *still* going strong. Publix ain't bad, but Wegman's just has a thing that works.
I liked how you continued the voiceover while doing the studio shots (don’t think that’s the correct term) of the blaster. In most videos I skip past those shots. Cool blaster. Very interesting hopper mouth(s).
I love how the blaster that is meant to shoot rival rounds is also IMO beats the Mach 100 aswell and excels at shooting hyper rounds given the fact that it’s not really designed for that
The color scheme of this would make this blend perfectly with the xshot chaos series. The only thing preventing me from buying a blaster like this is the lack of rechargable battery. Heck, I'd love to see a spring-powered slam fire version of this.
Maybe you should paint it in a light grey and turquoise, that could look cool. I like how this blaster has it's hopper on the side, and it seems great value for money, thanks for showing it off Drac!
This thing being able to fire multiple ammo types is HUGE. That is one of the reason why I've been hesitant to get into rival knock offs or hyper. This? I can just run around with it and grab whatever ammo I want. And it looks like a lovechild of a Nemisis and a Perseus.
Lots of hopper stuff have been coming out. I kinda don't like how inconsistent they are. When I pull the trigger, I want a round to fire. Maybe mags might be better? IDK
Drac, when u say " got the only set of hyper rounds without chain cuffs attached" does that mean you got them without having to go INSANE promoting them and not having strings attached!? lol
It's unbelievable that dart zone didn't put a battery tray in the back of the blaster like they did the quantum, the accelerator and the velocity, giving it room to switch it with the nerf rechargeable battery and making the blaster more desirable and money saving.
Sweet, now we have an affordable Perses. I suspected that Flywheels Rival blasters could fire the new HYPER ammo from gauging all Rival I've had access to. Thank you being the "Scientifically-Prove" this. I knew I wasn't the only one. As far as paint goes, there is no replacement for the infamous-fanger-red. Thank you again my good Sir. Mr.Scott54, BionicBlasters.
A nice nerf tip: people keep buying Duracell and energizer batteries, dollar store batteries work well and last long, since nerf blasters are low drain devices!
I just got one, threw in a 3s LiPo and 16 guage wire over the existing wire and switches and it shoots much harder and feeds slightly better. Sure there will be a way to fix the feeding, so far the easiest blaster I've modded and recommend getting if you find them
Nice, but since posted periodically Wal Mart has had Perses on line at least for the entry price of $100, though my fav was $66 at Target when originally came out and oddly shot the hop up tab out of the barrel WHOA avg FPS of 108. Can't wait to dance with it in Cowboys stadium soooon 😁
Shame they weren't able to get it to work on just 4 D's like the... Accelerator? (The DZ/AF "Rival Stryfe"), so it could be cross-compatible with the Rival rechargeable battery. As for the colors, go with black, red, & silver in a plaid pattern (keeping the "this is a toy" blaze orange bits as is of course) :p
I had the chance to get a perses for my birthday last year, passed on it for something else and now the prices have nearly doubled since it's discontinued...
I think you should play into the futuristic kind of theme going on already with the blaster and do a paintjob of something along the lines of black on the main body and a bright color on the other plastic sections. Also when you were talking about the internals and the robustness of the motors, did you mean you're able to run this on 3s without swapping the motors? I'm not too experienced with nerf teching so maybe that's obvious, but it's interesting that they can handle that kind of current if that's what you meant.
On the Walmart site under the "About this item" it says, "Requires 6 D batteries (not included) or compatible with Nerf Rival Rechargeable Battery Pack. Battery Pack sold separately." I wonder if this is just a mistype or what because this wasn't mentioned or even seem possible looking at drac's review.
Very interesting I'm kind of intrigued now but don't know man maybe I'll wait to see what you do with it with lipo because they are cost of the D size batteries that Cana stocks in high pinion LOL it'll drain your wallet very quickly
What if you hydro dipped it with some sort of pearlescent red hexagons and a metallic blue background? Don't know much about hydro dipping so don't know if that's possible, but I think it could look kind of interesting
No. The quantum has a removable battery tray, this does not. It would slide in from the top not the side to be compatible. I can see why they did this as rechargeable rival packs are not available but it would be nice. I modded my quantum tray to run 2s batteries and have had 0 issues. Only rewiring was making it a 2 stage trigger where half pull would rev
They must've quit selling these already! I can't find them anywhere around here, I did pick up a Rival Takedown which I like! But I want a monolith so bad, I saw one a couple weeks ago and didn't grab it and now I'm pissed I didn't. All the new Nerf guns are crap lately!! Except for Rival, I picked up a Dart Zone/Adventure Force Twin(something) mini gun which is frikin AWESOME!!
CANT WAIT to buy a couple of these! May have to get this and Hyper rounds, i may skip oit on the Hyper blasters and just use this for my hype goodness...LOL
I'm glad you made sure to acknowledge the superior grocery store chain. Publix is good, but Wegmans is something else

Actually a reverse swing out door on this could be a plastic expanded hopper with expansion to up top and with a LIPO upgrade ;-) ;-)
I immediately appreciate that the loading door actually looks quite large, unlike some of the narrow Hasbro loading doors.
Nerf must be sweating a bit. Their flagship for the new line already has a competitor at half the price, and it can use 2 forms of ammo.
Sweating? They are already drenched
@@josuetankson6633 honestly think they need a large marketing push and then nerf will have a full heart attack
So you are telling me that it's compatible with hyper balls ???????

Dart Zone once again proves that they are a true competitor to Nerf.

Do you think it'll eventually become (or already is) restricting that they only sell their products at Walmart?
@@creamyhummus except they don't. Heck, you technically can't even buy Dart zone at Walmart. (rebranded as adventure zone)
@@Uff-dada Oh, right, that's what I meant. I guess I'm not as versed in my DZ/AF knowledge as I thought I was.

Now other parties have to make Hyper ammo.

If I get one I would drill out one of the false barrels and put in a flash light.

You would need to increase the crush on the wheels for the Monolith to shoot those Hyper rounds.
I am more hyped for this than hyper lol
Same because in switzerland rival is illegal but dart zone isnt so im gonna get this
I'm returning mine for another
Awesome review. I'm glad someone finally tested it with hyper rounds. I picked mine up on clearance for 15 bucks. Easily worth that price.
I love how the blaster that is meant to shoot rival rounds is also IMO beats the Mach 100 aswell and excels at shooting hyper rounds given the fact that it’s not really designed for that
Looks like it's a lot easier to load than the Perses. Loading the Perses during play was kind of a nightmare to make sure you didn't spill any rounds.
The color scheme of this would make this blend perfectly with the xshot chaos series.
The only thing preventing me from buying a blaster like this is the lack of rechargable battery.

Nice!! I wish someone would get one of these right so we don't have to shake it when a hopper fed blaster stops firing.
Dart Zone REALLY loves their 40 capacity blasters. Lol
This thing being able to fire multiple ammo types is HUGE. That is one of the reason why I've been hesitant to get into rival knock offs or hyper.
This? I can just run around with it and grab whatever ammo I want. And it looks like a lovechild of a Nemisis and a Perseus.
7:46 another DracPog moment
The lower rate of fire is a bit of a plus in my book 'cause you won't blow through the rounds quite so quick. Still reasonably fast, but not TOO fast.
Whoa that’s really peculiar that hyper rounds are feeding through this blaster. I wonder if old Rival blasters can use these rounds as well.
The two barrel decoys and the grade of the plastic are a no no for us. Its something BlazeStorm would do not AdventureForce :D
Looks cool, good features, aftermarket support? Gotta have it.
5:45 Costco: am I a joke to you
Abso-hecking-lutely it is.
As cool as this looks, I think I'll stick with my quantum, at least that can take the rival rechargeable battery
good enough firing rate for rival rounds, turns into an hose when fed with hyper rounds, that's definitely something
Lots of hopper stuff have been coming out. I kinda don't like how inconsistent they are. When I pull the trigger, I want a round to fire. Maybe mags might be better? IDK
Drac and his pets like Rival better? Now all I can imagine is Jinx aiming a Kronos
It's referring to how incredibly tiny and easily eaten the hyper rounds are. My local war has already banned hyper for worries of local wildlife.
@@ajvotto6901 I know... But let me dream of nerf militarized pack dogs

You can still get the perses on Amazon. Nice that it can shoot hyper rounds but the Perses is still hands down the best.

A nice nerf tip: people keep buying Duracell and energizer batteries, dollar store batteries work well and last long, since nerf blasters are low drain devices!
Dollar store batteries are a strictly inferior chemistry most of the time
I see Drac is still in love with his Metal Coozy
🖌️Paint it in the style and theme of a Hyper blaster. 🎨
i like being able to load it from the side like that. would make it really easy to dump a handful of rounds in there. very accessible

You should do another primary comparison since it has been a long time since the last one.
I mean, for paint, you ought to make it Hyper colors; light grey, neon yellow.
Nice, but since posted periodically Wal Mart has had Perses on line at least for the entry price of $100, though my fav was $66 at Target when originally came out and oddly shot the hop up tab out of the barrel WHOA avg FPS of 108. Can't wait to dance with it in Cowboys stadium soooon 😁

Is there a hopup in the hyper blasters? And if not do you think a hopup would fix some of the problems?
Hey Jinx! Thanks for the Wegmans love! Which blaster do you prefer the Monolith or the Khaos?
It's a quantum with a rev trigger, cool. Paint it the adventure Force green.

What you got in that can? Looks like a coors banquet
I love Rival but I don't enjoy the hopper feeding blasters. I get so much more enjoyment out of precise semi auto mag fed systems
Drag, when is this on sale?
what do you think of using d cell to aa adapters? If you use rechargable aa batteries will it have enough power and duration?
Will the hyper round straight up feed through the perses?
I don't think so.
That looks so cool and awesome

Very interesting I'm kind of intrigued now but don't know man maybe I'll wait to see what you do with it with lipo because they are cost of the D size batteries that Cana stocks in high pinion LOL it'll drain your wallet very quickly
