Thanks again to Windjammer for linking me to the Hasbro Presentation, but we've got a new Vortex blaster! Not only do we have the confirmation of the N-Strike ELITE stuff, but a full-on new look at the latest Vortex design. The Pyragon has a 40 Disk Drum Magazine with red disks. No other information on the blaster was released, but it's got a really neat whiteout-esque look to it that I like! I wasn't expecting to see a new Vortex Design so soon!Read more to see a zoomed in look at it!
This is all information from their Investors Presentation. We also got new Lazer Tag news from this same presentation that you can see here. Keep it here for more information on all the latest news! With ToyFair 2012 upon us, I'm gonna be BUSY!
Nerf is stealing my money! Perfect color scheme and a drum!? Pretty quick. I'm gonna be buying this one.

Oh we're all over that thing. I've actually got one already!
DeleteI was going to buy me another Rayven, but after seeing this, im putting my money away for when this blaster arrives!
ReplyDeleteeh not what i was looking forward to, just another clip-system pump-action .
ReplyDeleteYeah... I'm definitely getting one of these bad boys when they pop out.
ReplyDeleteOh, man. Think of the neo-steampunk possibilities! That drum would make the perfect boiler...
DeleteHaha, I also realized I just made a pun. I called it neo-steampunk 'cuz the overall lines of the Vortices is more cyberpunk... But your steampunk stuff is also Neo Steampunk. ;0)
not to be rude but whoopie! another praxis,lumitron,pyragon i say keep your money the drum will come out seperatly prlly
ReplyDeleteOn a side by side comparrison, though they are similar, this has a different and smaller shell than the praxis, amongst a number of other differences. you just gotta look at the two. But if someone hasn't gotten the praxis it would be a good idea to wait for this.
DeleteYeah, just like the Raiders did...
DeleteThis thing looks fantastic. Looks like Nerf is spreading its wings a bit on clip design and feeding mechanisms. Though the firing rate of the Praxis is solid, overall it is a category in which the Vortex line could use some enhancement, so fingers crossed that this beautiful thing integrates Slam Fire. Thanks for the heads-up Zook!
ReplyDeleteI don't care if it's just another bloody Praxis, I WANT IT!
ReplyDeleteno thanks, ill save my money for the n strike elites
ReplyDeleteIt pretty much has to be slam fire considering the picture, unless Nerf thinks its a good idea to use picture of a blaster firing when it would be impossible without slam fire (the priming handle is in the middle of its sliding space).
ReplyDeleteNote that Vortex discs take TIME to get out of the barrel, and that a skilled user can have another one on its way almost before the first leaves the barrel.
DeleteI can't wait! A high-capacity vortex drum was just what I was thinking of the other day!
ReplyDeleteYesterday I promised my self I would not get a vortex, sorry promise denied!
