what does this blaster look like first impressions
and back in the box no thank you
hello everyone my name is brett and sometimes i wear a beret and this
is the nerf limited mandalorian amben phase pulse blaster it's so big i can't fit it into
frame and i'm not even going to try this is a long package and i have been waiting for this package
for a long long time i ordered it through hasbro pulse i didn't cancel my order i waited through
and finally got it in the last few days of 2021 and now that i finally have it in my possession
i don't really want to talk about it because everyone's already talked about this thing you
know the good you know the bad the only special thing is that because it came through hasbro pulse
it got a more form-fitting box but still like no protection for the package so this is still
slightly banged up in some cases and you can still order it again like on amazon on hasbro pulse i
don't really have a huge desire to talk about this very special first nerf limited blaster anymore
wait what what's that voice oh that's right technically this isn't the first nerf limited
blaster technically there's something else that came first and it was a bit more loosely tied
in but it still did have that nerf limited seal of approval and i never jumped on it because i didn't
care until now now i guess i care a little bit for some odd reason i have picked one up
this is a sleeve but it's hinting at a collaboration with travis scott fortnite
and nerf let's get a few things out of the way i did not pre-order this when it first came out it
was available for pre-order from travis scott's website or something like that i don't care about
travis scott i don't care about fortnite i don't care about cactus jack i do care about nerf
that's the reason i have it now but obviously in recent events travis scott is not exactly doing
the best right now and even worse the people who attended his concert and were killed obviously
the tragedy that happened at this concert is terrible but i think we can agree that
this blaster can be talked about removed from that whole situation this was just the latest
in one of those collaborations and it happened to be with nerf he sells a bunch of other stuff
but there's one thing that happened especially with this blaster that seemed to be deserving a
little bit of discussion and that was because it was the very first nerf limited blaster
it was the first to be available for pre-order but not from hasbro pulse and it did happen to include
a little verbiage that said that the product may differ when it arrives the packaging may differ
when it arrives and boy were they right about that if you haven't seen legit bread's video
about this blaster i do highly recommend watching that because he was an actual early consumer of
that blaster he bought it himself and then waited and waited and finally got it so through his uh
patience through his extra payments to get it shipped to him in canada boy it was quite the
experience but today we're looking at it a long time later just to see is it as iconically bad as
people have been making it out to be so i bought this particular box from someone on offer up
enjoy that glare oh my goodness so i paid five dollars less than what this originally retailed
for it was 65 and then plus shipping or whatever so technically profit or something i don't know it
came with the sleeve as you can see wow what a fancy sleeve that is and then on the back
so this sleeve is pretty dumb but i got it and that means something and underneath we've got
the more iconic box the box is pretty nice it's based off of the model in game
which i had to look up and i'll say that also looks kind of cool i can understand
why there'd be some hype for this overall packaging i can understand that at the time
this would have been a desirable if not unique collaboration for some people to get their hands
on you got all the characters on the front they're doing their thing they're doing their fortnite
thing too comes with a 10 dart magazine comes with 20 fortnite darts oh that's interesting
20 fortnite darts that's what it says on the back unfortunately i didn't get any of those
but i do have the magazine i do have the blaster the fortnite ar goosebumps the verified sticker
on the side is broken so yes it has already been opened up therefore losing all of its resale value
but let's see what does this blaster look like first impressions
back in the box no thank you greetings weary traveler and welcome to the burt zone
it's kind of dark in here isn't it well while you're here why not pick up a commemorative
bert zone shirt from silver fox industries short sleeve long sleeve it's yours friend
each purchase comes with a theme sticker and other mysterious goodies but don't wait too long
once pre-orders close on march 7th 2022 they're gone forever so get in the zone the bird zone
well the blaster looks terrible thank you everyone so much for
watching be sure to like comment and subscribe and i will see you next time
actually no i'm a little bit joking i thought this was going to be uglier
than it actually is you know what it's not as bad as i thought they could have screwed up worse
man i'm a real nice person aren't i the yellow on this blaster compared to the yellow on the box
is so much more muted like this weird mustard the real problem is that they're trying to make
this transparent the blue on this blaster is transparent and it is easier to see that in
person hey folks editing brett here i'm using transparent and translucent interchangeably
because originally i thought the outer shell was more transparent so you could see through it and
then the overall effect was more translucent upon further inspection the blue sparkly nature does
make it a little bit more translucent overall so just ignore what i'm saying and pretend i'm
always saying translucent at least back here it is and then there's like this light blue on the back
which isn't transparent so i think if they'd like kept this blue and put that in the front it would
have looked cooler but then you wouldn't have gotten this translucent effect which they i think
did better on a more recent edition of the nerf ar and the rocket launcher and the pistol what
was that the ripley but that was also just like a blue to a blue and this is throwing in a bunch
of different colors the yellow yeah is still not great when it fades to blue it gets a little green
looks a little gross and then the real offender which pops on the box reds the purples the oranges
but on the blaster that's that's pretty bad i mean what what the heck is going on there
and i'm pretty sure this is the same for all other units on the other side you've got a
transparent jam door i think that looks okay because you can actually see through it and
you could therefore see a jammed dart this would never jam this is a nerf blaster and
then of course on the one side you've got the detailing of the name and you've got the fortnite
only on the one side on this side it's not painted of course you've got the transparent blue it's
sparkly blue that's why i think in person it's not coming off as bad but still it's like with
the entire other colors they used a weird choice and then you can see on the bottom as well the
mismatch on the stock piece is like what otherwise the blaster is perfect 10 out of 10. i've never
actually reviewed the nerf fortnite ar on my channel before so here's your quick review of
that this is basically the exact same all models have been regardless of their color scheme i don't
love the base blaster because the handle is really small and cramped i'm fairly certain this is the
exact same if i'm wrong i'll eat my words but i've used one of these before over the extent
of a day and it was not nice to my hand using that rev trigger the batteries might be dying on this
thing or are pretty close to dead so i'll have to change those out for chronograph data later
the mag release is gross being in the trigger well you know it works the magazine as well
is pretty much the exact same you got the little llama i love that llama on the front there uh the
front's got this orange stripe to it i don't know why that's the case the batteries go in right here
on the front and the orange pieces are still the orange pieces this site on the back flips
down this can flip forward the stock is small in its original configuration like a 50 oversized
semi-auto flywheel blaster and that in its own right is not the worst thing ever at 50 bucks
it's a bit much obviously with a fortnight tax that's how it goes up in price and with the travis
scott price 65 is definitely pushing it the extra barrel in the front is definitely going to lessen
your ranges this long picatinny rail excuse me nerf picatinny rail on the top means all of your
nerf attachments will work there just fine nothing on the front here though and the stock even though
it looks like it should be removable is not it's a little bit of wiggle what does one do
with a fortnite ar goosebumps what does one do with the packaging i'll tell you what one of my
friends did coney dog put some love and care into this blaster opened it up gave it the appropriate
shine that it deserved i'll link to that video because it's probably one of the prettiest
renditions of this blaster out there at least that i've seen so like what's the point of this
blaster now well it's the exclusivity i guess the fomo marketing guys you gotta
get this before it disappears now i have one am i cool so nerf limited started off with their fomo
marketing and they've continued it ever since clearly you can find some for a more reasonable
price if you really really want to but an unopened one is still going to cost you a bit of money in
that regard if you're going to leave it in its packaging i suppose it's worth something but as
always it's going to be up to you guys and if you really just want something that looks like this
you want something that you can paint up you want this shell yeah there are some cheaper options out
there especially if you're looking for a used version of the nerf ar the yellow one in its
base configuration is perfect for painting and you should definitely be able to find it for less than
50 bucks what did i just hit behind me i will say there are some positives by comparing the
nerf limited ar goosebumps with the nerf limited mandalorian blaster because the sleeve that came
with the fortnite one is pretty bare bones it's pretty lame sure if you have this i suppose it can
go up in resale value at least this is something special like the packaging on this is cool too
wait a minute sorry this is the special nerf limited thing um and the box on that one is
cool too uh oh i know one the mandalorian blaster came with special silver darts which match the
blaster and nothing else they don't sell any other silver darts as far as i'm aware of and
something like the new boba fett blaster is going to come with golden darts which are special to
that blaster and the cylinders well that's kind of cool meanwhile the ar goosebumps comes with
the standard nerf fortnite darts nothing special there right they've improved so much
i'm really reaching here guys give me something i'd love to hear what you guys think about this
particular blaster do you think it's ugly or does it get a little more hate than it actually
deserves do you hate it just because it's a travis scott tie-in any and all thoughts i'd love to hear
from you down in the comment section below with that thank you everyone so much for watching
subscribe for a nerf mandalorian review sometime by next christmas and i will see you next time
get this thing off me
you
