The Hasbro NERF Blaster Allows You To Curve Your Shots

/ StaFFF / Leave a comment

Hasbro may have just revolutionized their Nerf Blaster range with the all-new Rival Curve. Just like the name says, this Nerf Blaster lets you curve your shots- a la Angelina Jolie in the movie Wanted.

The Rival Curve will be available in three versions (Flex, Helix and Sideswipe) and the user will be able to control the direction of each shot by twisting the barrel left and right or up and down. This setup is ideal for catching opponents hiding behind corners or objects.

There is no word of a release date, however, the first two models in the Rival Curve blasters (Flex and Sideswipe) are expected to drop in March, while Target stores will exclusively receive The Helix in August.

Fox (Marty McFly), Christopher Lloyd (Doc Brown), Lea Thompson (Lorraine McFly), Elisabeth Shue (Jennifer Parker), Mary Steenburgen (Clara Clayton Brown), director Robert Zemeckis, and more brought back that nostalgic feeling of when the movie first came out.

To celebrate Mar10 Day (an annual Mario celebration on March 10), LEGO and Nintendo have seemingly joined forces on a Mario figure of some sort.

Nintendo’s twitter posted the cryptic caption saying, “Something fun is being built!” LEGO has a similar mysterious post with only “It’s-a me, LEGO Mario!” a clip showing an LED-lit Mario figure standing on top of a Question Block, with a digital “?” roulette scrolling up on his chest.

The full unveil of what the two brands are cooking should happen later this month.

Mattel has just given you an easier way to score a Tesla Cybertruck… the toy version. The Hot Wheels replica of Elon Musk‘s much anticipated Tesla Cybertruck clones the overall look of the real vehicle. You will also have the option of a 1:64 scale iteration and a much larger 1:10 scale version with both being available for pre-order, just like the real thing.

The 1:64 version, is about the size of a traditional hot wheels car (about three inches) and will retail for $20. Two speeds accompany this version ‘Chill’ and ‘Sport’ and will be radio controlled as well as rechargeable.

The 1:10 R/C Cybertruck also arrives with ‘Chill’ and ‘Sport’ modes with the same features as it’s miniature counterpart, but with functioning headlights and taillights. This version has a telescopic tailgate that folds out into a loading ramp for the bed and a removable plastic body that reveals the interior of the vehicle. Price point for this replica Cybertruck will be at $400 and will even come with a reusable cracked window vinyl sticker, first witnessed at the famous Tesla Cybertruck reveal a few months ago when Musk accidentally broke the window.

Pre-orders for the Hot wheels replica Tesla Cybertruck can be found here. Shipping date is scheduled for December 2020.

/ StaFFF / Leave a comment

The ‘Pink Pig’ is the brainchild of Medicom Toy’s collaboration with brands ILLEST and Fatlace, drawing inspiration from the Porsche race car that smoked the competition in France at the famous Le Mans race.

The ‘Pink Pig’ shocked and awed the crowd as it entered Le Mans in 1971 not only because of its crazy design, but also because it ran the fastest pre-race qualification session.

The BE@RBRICK will come bundled with both the 400% and 100% sizes as is slated for a February 13 release date. Retail will be at a price of $181 USD online at ILLEST.
