I'd suggest the main advantage of this blaster, for cosplayers, is that they'd be more enthusiastic about doing their own custom repainting. Even if the foam doesn't take to paint as well, you're less likely to feel like you're ruining the toy by repainting.
The limited edition's paintjob is just confusing to me: You pay axtra so they paint it in a more elaborate way that has nothing in common with the original thing. So cosplayers or larpers will need to repaint it anyways.
As a cosplayer myself (and actually cosplaying as mando) this thing is a really great base. But what I would do is try to remove the tuning fork part with a 3d printed part and probably lengthen the stock but other then that really great base
I always feel awful painting a limited edition item even if it's for cosplay, it's nice to have an alternative to actually carry around the con in the right colors. Keep the pretty original sitting on the shelf.
Cosplay prop guy here. The less expensive version is what I would go with if I was going to use this for that purpose. For painting, undercoating with black plasti-dip will solve the foam rubber durability issue. The paint application on the more expensive model isn't great for cosplay purposes, so if you are going to repaint it anyway, you might as well spend less money. That said, for an adult, this is a bit undersized, so I would recommend this for younger, or rather, smaller cosplayers. Someone who is average size for an adult is possibly better off scratch-building one via 3d printing or traditional build methods. That said, this one has a number of lessons to teach. if you want your scratch build to have the same breach-loading mechanism, you can copy the design of the internals for an identical effect.
@@ultimateaquiles the Nerf version is 1.27 meters (50.25 inches) from stock to bayonet. The prop used in Mandalorian is 1.73 meters (68 inches) meaning that the Nerf version is slightly less than 75% the size of the actual prop. A prop that's that far out of proportion will look weird in a cosplay.
nerf, as a company, has really lost it recently. the only mildly interesting thing they released within recent memory is hyper. extremely practical blaster right here
@@colonelpotato Kids have always been the target audience. This community here is just a side effect. Kids don't care about pro level performance, they just want toy guns.
@@colonelpotato ultra has been getting better as of late. The new pistol for the wild side elite 2.0 line (I think that the line, and I believe the gun is called the trailblazer) ain’t bad either.
the barrel break also had this "realistic" (putting the round in from the back, facing forward) design, maybe if they refined this a bit more they could finally bring us another no-shell, break action shotgun. I wanted the barrel break for so long purely for that reload style but ykno how rare they are....
I think I might still have mine from when I was younger lol if you want I could sell it to you if it's still working (not too expensive of course just ill look on ebay and then cut that price)
So basically this blaster has two versions, the one thats "limited edition" and then this is the cheaper version? I mean lets be honest they just got the original one and they repainted it to be orange and sells it as cheaper than the original
But all the nerf fanboys are like “WeLl YoU dOn’T gEt ThE lIgHtS aNd SoUnD” but you’re a million times correct it is just a repaint sold for a fraction of the price
Damn Coop’s house is honestly aesthetic goals. The decorations are super pretty and I really like the color palette! Makes watching the shooting demonstrations super enjoyable!
The reason why its so hard for you to hold, aim, and shoot it properly is because the blaster is undersized to the original prop used in the show. the stock is completely shorter than it should be.
@@georgewhitworth9742 It isn't, but the toy looks very similar. Most Star Wars movie blasters were based off of WW2 guns. Someone will figure out how to do it.

Hey coop id love to see a series overview of the dartzone pro series, whether that all of them grouped together or the tactical strike series and the pro mk series separated. Just an idea for a future video! I think it would be beneficial
Maybe this suggestion is a bad one. But maybe you could hire someone to work with that IS into cosplaying, and then train them to review like you do. I think it would be a cool experience. And it would save you some time on things you just simply don’t know about. Like the cosplaying area of nerf.
The reson there bo grip is because in star wars there not a need for one on the rifle think of a mouser or mosion nogont what is there purpose a marksman/sinper just with a 2 prong Bennet used to stab and exetrofy the plasma to breach a tank or burn your living target
The gold flakes off, the sounds sound like they come from a McDonald's toy, the "battle wear" looks like it was applied lazily with a silver sharpie, the display box will more than likely come in damaged because they cant be asked to put it in a protective box, and on top of all that it doesnt even look like a good prop because despite it being long as heck the stock is still way to short. The only "perk" of the more expensive blaster was the FOMO marketing they used and even that isn't worth it because you can still buy it on amazon. Dont support this marketing cancer by hasbro. just get the orange one used and paint it yourself. You cant do any worse on it than hasbro did
What do you mean with hitting People I can only think of if you’re holding like a baseball bat and that it’s just awkward to just handed how do I like that they probably did that because bayonets
It's only kind of a let down cause let's face it this was a quick cash grab tho to make the blaster worth the price it should at least shoot hard when you have to breach load every time
This and the more expensive version are good at least as far as idea and use as a prop go. If the performance was at least up to the nerf standard, or ideally up to HVZ standard (as far as I’m aware that tends to be about 100 - 120 fps) I could see it being used a bit more by performance players.
I feel like nerf has the complete ability to make a series of blasters that every type of person likes, but they just aren't doing it. They either release some roblox edition pistol or main that is 100% cosplay based or they release one new random nerf gun that is literally strife with small modifications.
I think that this is the toy built for children around 7 or 8, and the white one is for older kids and adults who can be trusted not to break it or hit their friends with it on purpose.
The 2 things I like about this is a unique loading mech and the idea that with 60 ish fps through 3 ft of barrel, what happens if you chop the barrel off?
I got the limited edition at a price of 80 €. I was fine with that. Did a little bit of shooting. Now I am convinced that I have no problem taking the mechanism out and using this as a custom cosplay rifle (I will try to keep the illusion of loading shells into the chamber). To play with a softdart blaster, I much prefer my equally single-shot Boba Fett EE-3 (no idea which brand this is, but it is very reliable and aiming is much easier).
... If I see one cheap, I'd be tempted to buy it, and hack it down. I really like the mechanism and have some ideas how to make it look pretty interesting without the barrel or stock.
With future videos could we get some kind of hitmaker or dot to where the dart hits on the door, in first person view its very hard to see on phone screens

Mr coop how many millions of nerfs do you have???I have only 3

Gonna be honest, I kind of loved how it looked before the barrel was attached
I was thinking how cool it would be to have a break action sawed off style
now i have the musket the flintlock and the sword to fit now i am the... walking target (that might maybe kill 4 or 5 players at most xD)

Get well Boba Fett!
If you could replace the spring, it would be a little better as it is already a unique blaster.

This is a jolt reskin but they forgot to put the jolt in it

Is a Star Wars fan, this would be cool to put on the wall
Many of you already know this, but the "dry brushing" is silver sharpie. It just rubs right off with rubbing alcohol.
I was very close to preordering the original one. I'm very glad I didn't now
This is.... literally a Jolt reskin.
One thing to note do not remove the sling Mount that disable the trigger so when you caulk it back it will fire the dart
I had a friend who somehow modded this blaster to shoot farther

No Nstrike barrel lug
So for $70 more you get a neat box, a different paint job, and no battery powered elements
I'd buy this for the stock, looks like an MG42
idk no n-strike barrel lug so I would say just go buy a stryfe or an mp40
