Nerf N-Strike Mega Mastodon Blaster with Amazon Basics Batteries

Product Information

And the Mastadon, being a fairly recent offering, is a huge blaster with a lot of power and ammo storage. You get an OK spread with the Mastodon, though – it’s accurate to around 20 inches at 20 feet with fresh batteries, which is about the same as the Elite Hyperfire with its teensier Elite darts. Overall, we definitely recommend the Mega Mastodon for a thrilling, powerful and fun nerf battle session.

The Mega Mastodon was released in a Costco exclusive value pack that included the blaster itself, seventy-two Mega Darts, a shoulder strap, and instructions.

Still, I’ve used the Mastodon for at least six lengthy NERF battles now, as well as for range and accuracy tests, and still haven’t had to change the batteries or felt the performance drop. And, second, it was released as part of a Costco-exclusive value pack in 2015, which came with two extra drums, fifty extra darts, and was the first Nerf set to feature pre-packaged batteries. Built to look like a Manta Ray, the body can block incoming fire, while the multiple barrels (another first for Nerf) shot two carefully-angled darts designed to converge on the target. With 24 MEGA Whistler Darts and an easily attachable shoulder strap included, this action-packed weapon can even fire up to a range of 100ft! By partnering with such a popular YouTube channel like Dude Perfect, they were able to create a lot of hype.

I plugged the brand new 6x batteries and when I press both triggers, I can hear the motto making a sound, but the barrel does not move at all. The first few darts coming out with the spinning motor drive is for sure a thrilling experience for anyone. Featuring a rapid firing motorised Mega Blaster with an integrated 24-dart drum, this battle-ready N-Strike blaster is sure to stun any opponent.

While there’s some debate regarding its actual release year (somewhere in the early 90s), the low-tech toy is a perfect example of Nerf’s ability to twist a take on classics, such as our favorite stick-and-rubber-band standby. Ture, they may not be as valuable as certain Lego sets, but the most expensive Nerf guns are still sought after by collectors and investors who know what to look for. The Force is strong with Nerf, and this 14-inch battle blaster takes full advantage of one of parent company Hasbro’s most popular licensees. To help carry this battery-powered behemoth, there’s a swivel handle that slots into the top, just aft of the cylinder.

It is a high-performance half-length dart clip-fed blaster boasting firing ranges of up to 120 feet.
