- Not all Adventure Force is good, because not all Adventure Force is done by Dart Zone... sometimes it's Buzz Bee Toys, and sometimes those are awful... like the Thundershot Hammer Action Revolver Blaster here! But to be fair, we compare it directly against the NERF Fortnite 6-SH to see which blaster comes out on top.

Wow, for once, ADVENTURE FORCE messed up. That’s shocking. Unlike Nerf, that’s EXPECTED! But at least it’s not as bad as the Warden!
That's because Adventure Force is multiple companies... and this blaster is actually made by Buzz Bee Toys, but you're right: they probably shouldn't have stuff like this deluding their line.
@@WalcomS7 Well, Nerf has been declining for the past 2 years, 3 years once 2022 strikes… but Adventure Force NEVER struck this low ONCE. But there’s a first for everything!
@@WalcomS7 Tbf, Adventure Force is just Walmart's brand for many different toys, including toys that aren't blasters. Honestly I find it strange that Dart Zone/Buzz Bee/etc. don't just market their blasters at Walmart under their own name.
@@WalcomS7 And we all know of the flops which Buzz Bee Toys made at some point...
@@ryanymous2138 That's because all of the good "Adventure Force" blasters were by Dart Zone. All of the Buzzbee AF Blasters were only mid-tier anyways. Frankly, Dart Zone shouldn't sell their products under the Adventure Force line. There is a stark contrast in quality between them and Buzzbee.
You may have misunderstood - the 80’ range is how far you can *throw* it when you inevitably get frustrated that it doesn’t work
If so, bump that up to 100
XD
80 feet huh more like 8
You sure it's not referencing the color scheme? Seems pretty 1980's to me lmao.
Lol
"Wait, Adventure Force made a bad blaster?!"
**Looks at the fine(r) print**
"...oh, it was made by Buzz Bee. No wonder."
Well buzzbee didn't use to be bad, not during 2015-2018 atleast
@@Deluvenai Agreed there, actually. I had a Double Shot back in the day and I absolutely loved it.
Yeah and things like the brute, the sentinel, and their mega blasters that had had mags that could be used with the centurion and vice versa
@@Deluvenai Imo buzzbee was always under nerfs shadow until they were under dart zone's lol
As an adult, foam blasters are a guilty pleasure. Took me a while to sub to coop, took me longer to sub to drac, now it's your turn. Keep it up my dude.
Embrace it. I am 51 and got into blasters 6months ago. I have well over a hundred now and at least it's keeping me off a golf course!
@@BaddDukk you have to admit, having something like a gun that you can shoot anywhere without going to jail is fun when compared to a real gun lol
@@ryancaling1711 absolutely. My son has airsoft and paintball and that's all fine in their own places but the 'play anywhere' aspect of foam blasters is liberating and fun.
@@BaddDukk That is precisely what I would like to be able to say when I'm 51!
I'm 33, and definitely not an adult. Said while wearing my Dragonball bathrobe lmao.
That 80 claim on the box is how long your thumb needs to be in mm to reach the hammer, the box designer just misunderstood and put it as range in feet 😂
As someone who has already broken a Thundershot(same place, no less) , the spring is an excellent upgrade for an Xshot rapid fire. Shame it works so poorly, I love the aesthetic. Very cartoony
The Thundershot is at least a good shell
EDIT: no its not, the hammer is a mile away from the grip :/
I'll tell you right now; the newest version of BuzzBee darts with the almost dome-shaped tips are the absolute worst darts I've ever encountered. They don't work well in their own blasters, they don't work well in other brands' blasters. They aren't glued properly. Some of them aren't glued at all. BuzzBee's got some neat blasters out there right now, but I wouldn't even use their darts for packing material because I'd be afraid whoever got the package would try and use them. I wouldn't wish them on anyone. I will run Elites, Zuru darts, Ultra, anything you want, but not those.
They need to have the waffle dart back
The new black and green accurate ones? Or the old green and blue long distance ones?
@Timothy Pak no, they are like current nerf elite darts but with a sharper edge, like a cone. the waffle-head adventure force darts knock it out of the park.
@Timothy Pak no definitely not, it doesn’t look like a dome on a dart
Waffle head is way better
That freaking Ape Escape music... Damn last level gave me more Platforming PTSD than Megaman 8 and Spyro 1 combined
Just getting back into foam blasters now that my kids are a little older. And damn what a good time it is. Your channel is tops man, great info and entertaining.
Drac acctually sells a replacement Muzzle for the 6SH fyi as he was surprised how good it was too
You know what, when I was a kid I woulda loved the hell outta that thundershot, so kid's toy achieved!
As for the Fortnite revolver, that stupidly long barrel reminds me of the '89 Batman movie when the Joker pulls out his comically long revolver to shoot down the Batwing
The 6-sh is like the Jack Napier special, lite edition.
Remember the Sentinel? The Doubleshot? The Mustang 6? The good old days, when Buzzbee ruled the land of cowboy action blasters... Now merely a shadow of their former glory remains, living on only in memory and Tag Back episodes. O, how the mighty have fallen!
does the thundershot grip come off as a separate piece? I'm just thinking it might be a bit more usable with a rifle-esque grip, though there would still be the actual function of the blaster to contend with
Pretty sure it does, I think MongooseJake mentioned it in his video.
It does along with that barrel.
Also i think the thunder shot is a direct plunger system which is why the grip comes off.
Whoa a totalbiscuit shirt. I forget that he's gone, it feels like I could check his channel and he would be there.
Mmmm you might want to keep an eye of a Thundershot for parts, that barrel looks great and the cylinder might work in another blaster as well.
So disappointing that Bruh-zz Bee messed up this one. The shell looks great and it technically works (so better than some recent Nerf offerings) but that's noticeably terrible performance. It's almost as if they had to dial down the spring after focus test kids couldn't pull back the weirdly placed hammer.
If you've got $10 to spend on a revolver, grab yourself an X-Shot Reflex, maybe even the upcoming gold one.
So we now have hasbruh and bruh-zz bee. Please xshot and dartzone please provide good blasters.
Watch coop’s review about the thundershot.
The Thundershot looks like the Dummy Revolver from Who Framed Roger Rabbit!!! XD
Remember the buzzbee air warriors sentinel? That was pretty nifty for $10.
WHY THE HECK HAVE THEY NOT BROUGHT THIS BACK!?!?!
@@WalcomS7 Actually have been chatting with the VP there at Buzz Bee about the Sent, Brute, Destiny and a few others coming back. Even mocked up a paint scheme, and from our chats some there are on board big time. Time will tell though.
at first i thought “what? how can dart zone/ adventure force screw up this bad?” then after looking at comments i was like “ohhh so its buzzbee that screwed it up”
Buzz Bee still exists?
I actually like the long barrel. It reminds of the joker revolver from the first Michael Keaton Batman movie.
Someone make a comically long barrel attachment. NOW!
@@mechanwhal6590 when I was a kid, I thought the longer barrel made it more powerful. I mean it did damage the bat wing.
Is that your nsx in the pfp?
@@comradekoala1245 yes
@@s14tat sick bro!
It seems like dart zone is the only blaster brand that understands how human hands work.
thats mainly becauase companys like nerf and other dart companys tend to design there guns for younger kids
@@gangwallbanger5864 Not really. Many of the blasters massively underestimate or overestimate the proportion of human bodies and their limbs and appendages
Love the Totalbiscuit shirt.
Rip, legend
Dartzone. A revolver. Make one. You guys are good at quality right now so seriously. XD
Actually, later model Thundershots allowed Buzzbee to fix the problems with the Thundershot that plagued the first handful of batches. Primarily the flimsy hammer and internals. The ones in the first batches weren't intended to be shipped out to stores, apparently.
I will say with the fortnite 6 sh: while it's cool and functions well, modding it doesn't bode well for it. I put in the metal hammershot internals from Germany, as well as a spring upgrade. I've had nothing but issues with it since.
Thank god I’m still owned a pair of hammershots cuz they’re can be duel welded unlike the thundershot that can only fires at close to mid range, while the fortnite revolver is mostly accurate.
Yeah, they're citing my review for positives on social media...but my next post is about to retract my review because both of mine broke in the same exact spot.
That's hilariously awful.
I wish buzzbee will improve the ergonomics of their blaster.
In one of Coop's older videos on the New York Toy Fair at the time, he mentioned talking to the Buzz Bee rep and they said they do it on purpose. So...don't get your hopes up....
@@captsomeguy1Lmao what
It's at 5:20 of his 2018 Toy Fair Buzz Bee video where Coop mentioned the small grip thing in case anyone is wondering
Walcom: Wow, this is worthless!
BuzzBee Tek-3: Am I a joke to you?
the 6-SH stands for 6 shooter because thats what it was called in game iirc
Good thing the grip is a separate part so that you can make a 3d printed one
Paint up the 6-SH in chrome and you've got a snazzy old-school six shooter.
WalcomS7: "Wow, this is worthless!"
Me. "It's less than worthless my boy!"
Sorry for the repeat joke, you just gave me an excellent set for that spike.
I loved gravity falls
I think one good way to turn the fortnote 6-sh into a revolver carbine woule be to fix a longstrike stock to it and modify the stock so instead of holding 2 mags it could hold individual darts or even dart clips for easier loading
you know ocelot said: "Six shots. *More* then enough to kill anything that moves."
Good to know. I plan on getting 2 6 sh and getting drac's front replacement.
They tried to replace the Hammershot ... LOL nobody touches the Hammershot !!! XDDDDD
Well at least the 6 shooter can compete
average hammershot fan vs average sweet revenge enjoyer
Man..... that Totalbiscuit shirt made my heart hurt.... R.I.P sweet prince...
Honestly I wouldn't say it's a good Blaster to play with but I would see it as a good cosplay gun just painted and give it a little details here and there and I would say it would probably look like a good Hellboy gun or any other gun from pop culture
My favorite buzz bee guns is the hawk. Bolt action, shell ejecting sniper format. What’s not to love?
I caught that Kamen rider Kabuto sound and the Kamen rider Ex-aid reference. You ain't slick
The long barrel of the Nerf one is a silencer, they are used to make pistols quiet, so they would be a better tool for assassinations.
it would be cool if the thundershot was good for modding given its big ol cilinder along with its oversized hammer that might help, but with performance like that i dont think it has a large or even average sized plunger
WS7
Fantastic review. Awesome comparison video. I had high hopes for the Adventure Force revolver. I picked one up last week and wow it sure is underpowered. You ROCK keep up the great work. I do appreciate how you seem to go into all of your reviews with an enthusiastic open mind.
I guess that the one pro with the Thundershot is that its proportions match quite well to those of an L-3 Nozzlenose so it would make an excellent prop
ah yes as coop said in the icon series review for it just launching "you guys can still love your stampede but its gonna get outranged by a jolt yes your going to get outranged by a jolt
From my experience the BuzzBee dart is worse than the elite dart.
They are so incredibly inconsistent, it’s actually fun to use them.
They do work as shotgun ammunition though
The Fortnite line is so underappreciated, nearly every blaster is pretty good. Then again, the Fortnite tax is pretty bad but it can be worth it (especially when thrifted)
Yeah but i live in a small town, and every time ive checked the local goodwill, i havent found ANYTHING. its like a fucking drought, the best thing ive ever found was dart tag micro, 30 minutes away from said smoll town
the sniper is almost as good as the ultra pharaoh
The revolver is like €50 where i live
I'm gonna say it. You have got to have baby hands if you can't prime the hammershot one handed
I got one of these before this video, mine came not fully put together and would shoot like 1 foot, so I opened it up and didn't see anything broken so I put it back together and it was working like in the video, except the cylinder doesn't rotate. So yeah, it is a sad blaster.
The Buzz bee blaster looks like something they would have put out in 2003 or even the 90s, I mean it makes the Maverick look like gold by comparison
WalcomS7 I have had a ADVENTURE FORCE mini gun,sniper, and 4 shot pistol i used every ADVENTURE FORCE dart and the shot up to there range and i say i love ADVENTURE FORCE gun in my opinion
The last time I was this early walcom still did tag back
@WalcomS7 should I get the nexus pro because it’s at my Walmart now ?
Gotta say, I was kinda excited for the thundershot, kinda dissapointing... Perhaps I'll actually have to purchase a nerf Fortnite blaster. Huh.
By the way, really been liking all these new uploads! Keep up the cuality qontent, Calwom!
If you haven't already, you might take a look at the Hammerstorm too. Sure, it's Alpha Strike but it's got some pop, better ergonomics than the Hammershot and an eight dart cylinder.
@@Jackalblade9 Yeah, definitely a bit out-there in terms of design, but I think it's pretty cool. I might have to do some more research on it, to see what my final choice will be.
You could get a hammershot and put a 8 round cylinder by modding
@@ashwinmanoj9625 That is an option too. That would also require a spring upgrade or a kit, too, though.
When I get the fortnite one I’m just not going to attach the barrel and leave it off because it’s useless and looks terrible, the blaster looks great without it
Did anyone remember the buzzbee guns that were overpowered and hurt before the adventure force.
I heard today from American Foam that these were prototype versions that got mistakenly shipped to stores, and that they fixed this and released the one they actually intended version to stores. Same for the Tetrashot... Although that one only got the chain fixed as far as I understood, which wouldn't solve anything... Oh well, maybe the Thundershot has a chance now... Outside the grip
Can go up to 80 feet!*
*tested by firing from the top of a 5 storey building.
Removing the barrel on the 6-SH increases velocity.
I feel bad for anyone who missed out on the Hammershot because the Hammershot is pretty rare/expensive to buy along with the Nerf Halo Assault Rifle. I'm thankful I have it.
U can easily find it on amazon for 16$ USD
The Thundershot reminds me of the Thunder 6 revolver or even the Taurus Judge.
I prefer my Dart Zone revolver over the Buzzbee Thundershot. I’m definitely going to buy the Fortnite 6-SH just because of how cool it looks.
It reminds me of the spy’s pistol from tf2
Lol, you’re not wrong.
Just got the 6-SH and it feels really awesome to shoot, the hammer prime is really good, I didn’t put the barrel on so now I have hammer action Strongarm
Take the barrel off the 6-SH and you've got a Hammerarm.
I already have the fortnite 1 moded it to fire half-darts and the only reason I'd ever get the buzz bee on for, I'd just get a 3d printed cylinder.
the color theory of buzz bee is like the color theory of a colorblind bobbit worm
I'll just stick with my Doomlands Negoiator with the upgraded spring. Thanks for the video man.
i'll stick to my stock jolt
lol i love the toku references man.
made me smile! nice to see someone who likes toku and nerf as well ^^
Nerf blaster: 70 FPS
Buzzbee blaster: 50 FPS
The winner is clearly the Nerf one...
Have you ever thought about shot the nerf arrows from a slingshot?
That’s sad to me. It’s one of the nicest looking dart revolvers I’ve seen. Major Hellboy vibes.
That's true also do you play titanfall 2 as per your thumbnail
@@kylo109e2 yes indeed.
Ah a man of culture
Lmao it literally looks like an enlarged hammer shot with the styling of a nerf fortnite blaster and the paint design of those shitty glock blasters on Amazon from china
Couldn't have said it better, haha.
Will you eventually be putting out a review of the Dart Zone Max Stryker? I know other reviewers have talked about it already (and I also already have one of my own), but I want to hear your opinion!
He mentioned in streams that it's basically the same blaster as the Nexus Pro, and for that reason he's not blown away like some others are about it.
@@nerfrdude Ah, gotcha. Guess we won't be seeing a review on it then.
I feel like the best comparison’d be hammershot vs thundershot vs 6-SH. (I have the 6-SH now. It’s an absolute honker)
I don't think they meant 80 feet I think they meant 80 inches
I bought one opened it fired 16 darts through it, then I repackaged it and returned it…
"Long distance darts aye buzz bee"
"80 ft aye buzz bee"
The 6-SH is probably the only fortnite blaster I’d ever b interested in. Hell, I’d get 2 just so I could dual wield them 4 no reason other than it’s badass
The one defense I will give for the thundersot is the shell is more modular in design for any modding interests. The grip is a two screw connection and the barrel is completely removable. Whether or not that's worth it is obviously up for debate, given it's poor stock performance.
I got the tetrafire and maybe just mine is garbage, but it barely fired and jammed a lot. plus, even when it fired it fired poorly.
I think I need to get the 6-sh. I LIKE hammershots, especially my metal kit omw one. So, I think the 6-sh would be an even better platform for my omw kit.
I am am in shock and i am a tight budget and was looking at the thundershot but is the nerf Fortnite 6-SH better then the the nerf hammershot and for your money
Still the uppercut has the bar high with the second being this and the deploy getting a lower rank than it used to have
I may do a cosmetic mod with the Adventure Force. The Hellboy Good Sammaritan.
love the amount of uploads
He hated the bad gun so much he did not hesitate to yeet it.
The thunder shot is a blaster that looks like it belongs to Harley Quinn
I got one for 7 bucks at Walmart and I was able to get a max 60 ft of range on a straight shot.
It’s not enough ammo for a primary, too big for a secondary.
I think buzzbee mixed up feet with centimeters
appreciate the bad takes being left in , shouldnt be getting into this because i know its adhd and fleeting , but ive been binge watching these and they are really well done.
i bet the buzz bee team just climed up a 2-3 story building and shot the thundershot in a 35 degree angle to achieve 80 feet, or they just lied about it.
came for need blasters, stayed for the ape escape music. 😎
Additional tweaking and making the 6SH take the metal? You have my attention, good sir. Please, do go on.
The “buzzbee” corporation (the people that made the adventure force guns) used to make some pretty cool looking guns back in the day that worked alright. I find now it’s like the middle ground between the premium guns of nerf, and those brittle Molded plastic dart shooters you buy at dollar general. Nowadays, the adventure force guns are those guns grandparents buy when a kid asks for a nerf gun at Christmas, inevitably leaving them disappointed.
Idk about this. Maybe a whole bad batch cause I just put mine over the chronograph and I got an average 73 fps and was hitting in the 80s if I slamfired it cause the hammer goes back much further than the catch. Gonna adjust that catch and trim the cylinder for rear loading half darts soon.
Doesn't fix the breakage problems though. It's a bad design.
@@WalcomS7 that is true. It is flimsy and brittle. That along with the poor geometry makes it a no go for most enthusiasts. I however am probably going to build a bunch of custom stuff for mine because I'm crazy like that.
Keep it up man! I like the honest reviews!
if ya want a good 8-shot hammer blaster without modding the hammershot
trailblazer works
Hooray! I now found a new side-arm to my deploy!
The best part about the 6-SH is that if you leave off the stupid barrel, you also get rid of the fortnite branding.
