  • ** Video Correction **
    In this video I discuss the fact that there are 3d designers creating front muzzle attachments for the challenger and the Mirage has the same barrel lug. This is false, there is a very slight difference in the 2 blaster's muzzles that may impact cross compatability between the 2.
    ** Video Correction **
    Today I'm unboxing the next Nerf blaster in the Rival line, the Mirage! This is a top prime, magazine fed, springer blaster that includes an 8 round short magazine.
    This video will cover some of the features of the blaster, a short firing demo & my first impressions. For a full review with range footage and all the bells and whistles, check back later next week from my in-depth review!
    Thanks for watching!!

    Unfortunately the muzzle design for the Challenger and Mirage are slightly different so the ones being designed for the Challenger will not lock on the Mirage.

      You are absolutely right! Looks like everything is the same except for Mirage has a shallower rotation track. That's so weird. I'll put a correction on video! Thanks for the heads up!

      The muzzle that Paperskeleton3D designed for Challenger works on my Mirage.

      Minus some questionable construction on the handlen, its a really fun little blaster. My 7 year old has really taken a liking to the form factor, but unfortunately, he is not strong enough to prime it. I'm considering dropping in a weaker spring so he can use it. Now the question is what kind of spring will fit!

      @DOUBLEPUNCHPRONERFER to be honest I was shocked that our Meijer had them, they are usually way behind on new releases (months in some cases). I would be shocked if walmart doesn't get it on the shelf before the end of the weekend.

    To bad the styling and the quality are not old rival level. They would have had a hit, but now they have a mediocre product.

    • @backyardfoam
      @backyardfoam  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I definitely agree with the quality. There has been a few misteps taken with this release. As for styling, that's more on a personal taste level. Every blaster style they come up with, isn't going to be at the top of everyone's list. Personally I was not a fan of the blue/yellow rival blasters, even up to the pilot. (That's why I painted mine) but there is definitely something about these last two releases that has me starting to warm up to the style.
      Thanks for watching!

    Did you mod your old nerf rival magazine to make mirage accept the old rival magazines?

    • @backyardfoam
      @backyardfoam  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I did not have to mod them. They do, however, go in backward, which took some getting used to.

    Love your videos. My 13yr old and 12 yr old got deep into nerf last Christmas. This has been our new family "thing". Really like your perspective as it mirrors our mostly. Thanks!

    • @backyardfoam
      @backyardfoam  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That's great to hear! Nerf is a great family sport and depending on how deep you want to go there lessons in, team work, strategy, engineering, and so many more skills that many kids nowadays miss out on. Thanks for the support!

    I think the blaster needs some after market ammo storage with the breech loading. I drew a 4 round lower rail storage, a 4-6 round upper rail storage. I like leaving the side rails for accessories. Maybe my buddy will take my designs and make some 3D prints.

    • @backyardfoam
      @backyardfoam  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The breach loading is by far my favorite thing about this blaster!

    For a $20 rival that looks pretty sick (and hopefully hits a good 90-100 fps) it’s a pretty cool blaster.

    • @backyardfoam
      @backyardfoam  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It feels like mid to high 90s!

  • @sweetlikechocothai

    Cool blaster. I don’t need one. But I’m glad Nerf is still making Rival. The Pilot is the only Rival I’ve bought in years.

    • @backyardfoam
      @backyardfoam  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It's great when Nerf makes cool things. Even if it's something we personally don't "need" but other foam flingers out there might.
