who the heck decided to use that face holding a
dart X shot you got a good sense of humor well done
hey everyone my name is Brett and sometimes I wear a hat I'm working on some stuff behind me right
now so don't worry too much about that instead worry yourself about X shot we talked about X shot
a little bit towards the end of last year in depth mainly because they didn't really put out blasters
in 2021 and I was wondering why that might be the case well not too long after that video I did
get contacted by someone at xshot and I actually talked to them and they showed me some stuff they
were working on and I wasn't allowed to talk about any of that until now or like until a week or so
ago because I'm a little late to this party and yes I'll backpedal a little bit they did put out
some new things last year or into the early parts of 2022 some people were showing me that they were
seeing the uh what little extinct Dino pistol I've seen that as well now in stores so I'm aware of it
yes yes I know it eventually came out to the U.S and they did those reskins of the orbit meteor for
FaZe Clan I obviously got that and talked about it earlier but we're talking about new stuff now what
has x-shop been cooking up well it's here the box has arrived from xshot the new x-shot skins huge
thank you to xshot for getting this to me they only sent me the box to talk about and review they
didn't send me any other promotional stuff I'm not paid to be talking about this but I am very
thankful to have it now in my possession it says skins the box is actually kind of cool and that
you can open it up what it I just hit myself in the throat so you can open up the box and then it
opens into a few more panels This is the absolute worst way to show it off but I'm committed at this
point so we're going to keep it if I angle up you can see a little bit better hopefully or I'll take
a better picture on how this opens up and reveals the big boy underneath in fact I just noticed this
the other day if you go to their Instagram you can see they've added all the new blasters so you can
see all the new paint schemes there I guess you could go to their website too but you know the
images rotate so you can see both sides and you can see that both sides are indeed painted and
the four different blasters we've got are the Menace the flux The Dread and the Last Stand so
the Menace are these small ones and they're like the I thought originally micro reskins they might
not be exactly that but that's how they were kind of described to me before the flux is a
kickback I think reskin I think that's the one it was the dread is a reskin of their whatever
flip Blaster from before and then the Last Stand I think is the most original and that's the one
I was most excited to see in person because it's kind of like their Flagship now xshot sent me a
few notes here so really quick hey x-shot League it's time to hashtag choose different I don't know
if I love that hashtag but okay with our latest Blaster Innovation X shot skins we're bringing
the in-game experience of skinning your blaster into the real world with our state-of-the-art
printing technology making the most Innovative blasters on the market now for the first time ever

stronger X shot we love seeing the videos and content you guys create so don't forget to tag us
well you'll get what you ask for I suppose so no at this time you can't customize your own
x-shot Blaster with a unique skin but they are saying that there are many different options of
a similar Blaster so X shots going very hard into this skin option where we've seen many different
reskins on the market before they're saying this is probably one of the most unique things that's
ever been done in that category where some people would critique before that making reskins is not
making anything new this is the whole point they want you to have new skins and they think
that that itself is a cool collector's gimmick I absolutely love this guy for being a Not Call of
Duty but it's a you can see some of the verbiage call to duty special ops peek-a-boo Eric shot
it's not actually licensed and then just in time for July 4th we've got the All-American one the
menaces are small they're cute and they're the least expensive then you've got the flux not to
be confused with Dr flux he is not a blaster he's a man this Blaster has the same kind of
Kickback that you would get in their previous ones which means that if you don't have any darts
you can still adjust there's Dart storage in the front on these guys whereas on the smaller guys
there's only Dart storage that's going to run perpendicular but funny enough if you compare
the primes you can see that the priming bar on the super small menaces is thicker than the flux the
X shot dread now I've seen this skin as well it's the I wrote it down it's the boom however X shot
you funny this is the x-shot boom with a slight modification to it do you see it right there
do you see my name and my face if you've been on Instagram recently you may have noticed that there
are others who got dreads boom variants with their faces and names also on them and some of
those are pretty cool as well however they're not this cool and they're not this funny you
can fight me on that one who the heck decided to use that face holding a dart a Nerf Elite Dart I
don't believe you can get this actual skin variant I'm sorry it's a one of a kind but when I first
saw that Holy Smokes I wish I was recording my reaction I died I could not wait to show
people this x shot you got a good sense of humor well done I don't know why they chose this photo
I did not direct them to choose this it's like a screenshot and I looked for at least half an
hour before making this video I don't know where they got it from guys if you can find where this
screenshot came from I'll pin your comment leave it in the comment section down below
sorry how does the Blaster perform I'm so overwhelmed with just the fact that my face is
on this stupid thing this could have been how it's been from before but when you pull the secondary
it actually just releases the two cylinders and so then they're free so you do have to rotate it
into place now it is still pretty quick and easy to do that you can see as well they are trying to
rotate One Direction more so than the other the boom Brett paint Scheme I could not get
over that and lastly of course we've got the Last Stand Dragon variant now this guy is definitely
much bigger than the others and as a result it is the most expensive in the line you can call
it the flagship Blaster it's a pretty good size for me I'm a small individual but comfy foregrip
decently comfy grip as well the stock fits me pretty nicely again short guy but no complaints
on that the cylinder does rotate pretty freely if you spin it and you're not primed
when you are primed it doesn't go anywhere at least it's pretty loud when you uh prime
it but there is a reason for that as well this Blaster has slam fire if you hold down the trigger
and you pump back it has just fired forward fire forward fire that's interesting now if you just
Prime and fire again that's the single shot mode on this one as well you've got a pretty long
rail across the top but they don't include any attachments and I don't think they're going to
in the future so just FYI all these other little bits and Bobs are just for display purposes now
there is definitely one thing I need to address with the X shot skins line and that is the plastic
these blasters are competitively priced that's a wonderful thing X shot's always been able to do
that and I love that Unfortunately they do feel pretty thin in the plastic department and it's
the most noticeable with something like the last stand if I hold this aim it at you bye-bye I can
twist it a little bit and you can see just how thin some of those plastic parts are and it's
you know not ideal you can see this this cylinder turn a little bit as well I don't know if I would
want to abuse this Blaster too much because it could snap especially again on something like this
where I can feel it's really really light it's very very Hollow it seems to have decent power
it seems to be really well fitted to my body I'm just saying if you compare it to another
Blaster you have you might notice that this one feels really really light and therefore really
fragile and that starts to get less apparent as you go down in size like I can start to torque
this one a little bit as well but again it's a little bit less noticeable because the plastic
just isn't as long it's not as Hollow same with the flux like oh this one there's a little bit
there but it's a it's a pistol right it's super light but it's a pistol so you weren't noticing
it as much but as a result the tiny guys the menaces these things are great because there's
very little dead space that isn't just Blaster so as a result these things feel
pretty normal they feel pretty good and they have again freaking good seal love that so I think that
is worth pointing out especially if you use your blasters a lot which sounds kind of funny but
for these blasters there's definitely a display element to them I'm sure some people will get
these and never take them out of the box never use them and that's fine because that might be
something that you want to do they're definitely banking on that and if you like that then this is
definitely going to be something to check out and if it's not for you well then don't yeah
now of course some of you have been waiting this entire time for the darts that one little offhand
comment that is more exciting than any Blaster I could possibly show you this is very interesting
to finally see X shot changing up their darts many of us would say it's a bit overdue but hey better
late than never no these are not half darts that's also been something on the rumored Horizons and I
have nothing to share with you on that sorry you can see it's got those three holes in them or I
should say one hole and then two parentheses and I did do some quick checking like pulling a head
off of one and here's a head off of another these are super squishy heads I don't know why they're
so squishy but they are very squishy you can see that's not too long of a dart stem as well and
you could also see it wasn't too much effort to pull these things from their dark body the foam
quality itself feels fine I don't think we've ever had a problem with that for x-shot darts
the accuracy is going to be something we test a little bit more in time I haven't been to an
event to even use these yet just firing out of The Blasters they seem acceptable and it looks
like just because of like how wide the head is versus the actual diameter of the foam you might
be able to get them in some sealed breeches but because this head is also just so squishy I don't
know how effective they're going to be given that X shot's previous darts were some of the
least desirable darts to use because since their heads usually were a little bit wider than the
actual foam dart itself meant that you could only front load them into other blasters this is going
to hopefully be a little bit more cross-compatible because yeah you can fit these in full length Nerf
magazines x-shot magazines Dart Zone magazines we could cut them down and start putting them
in half length blasters I maybe we shouldn't do that yet we're getting too far ahead of ourselves
foreign
yeah these little guys I think are the stars of the show I really liked the look of the
flagship Last Stand and I absolutely freaking love my face on a blaster however I think for
the average consumer the average collection person collection person the average person
who collects these guys are amazing and so if you find a style of the Menace that you
really really like I say definitely go out and get them obviously they are not going to
fit into your hand the handle is too small they were not designed to fit into your hand and yet
at the same time they're just enough material that you can still grab it but it's like it's
not uncomfortable I look forward to showing these off on the street to random people that I meet and
this one still just cracks me up like nothing else ever has any other company that wants to
make me laugh this is the bar that has been set yes it could have said Bert it could have
been a little bit more Niche to my channel as well but come on thank you everyone so much for
watching I have one more thing in mind given all this recent x-shot stuff to say thank you
but in the meantime happy blasting choose different hashtag choose different that's
what they told me to say because it's in the card and I will see you uh in the Bert Zone
