Im still a bit ashamed I bought a Turbine. I've painted and modded the shell so its not obvious though. Its like the step child I needed, but never wanted...
I really feel like the commander stands out a lot - because its such a simple, reliable and extremely cheap gun. Its always handy and always works, love it
I do kinda like the Commander and Trio. All of the other blasters are repulsive to look at IMO. Elite 2.0 is such garbage. I am optimistic about Hyper tho.
@@nightfall-8891 i have the comander, i bought it cuz it looks like stormarm or disrupter but i buy the comander cuz i like the design more than strormarm or disrupter
I own two of these: The commander and the volt The commander is great, it comes with 12 darts and no attachments. But it doesn’t matter because attachments don’t really affect its nice performance. The volt is also decent, 1 dart mag with 5 or 6 reloads. Mine came with a crappy little scope, though I’m not sure if they do that anymore because I got mine right when it first came out.
@@Angel_Love6680 na elite 2.0 fears everyone because even a jolt is better because you can take it apart. even 3d printed blasters are way better and some perform better while being cheaper and smaller
@@charliemaybe lol agree! the only thing Elite 2.0 can beat is Ultra at this point XD (due to it having tacti-cool rails and having regular foam darts)
Hasbro was like we need more money what should we do? person 1: make better nerf guns person 2: raise prices person 3: make crappier version of old blasters person 3 *promotion*
one useful tip for echo users to avoid the magazine falling out- put your finger outside the trigger guard when you prime and if you're using slamfire, i don't think that will be a problem
I own the commander, got it for my birthday and absolutely love it. I think I will get the Phoenix as well and try get a echo barrel. Update: I now have the Echo and the Phoenix is in the mail. The Echo works great, and as coop mentions the mag release is touchy but if you know it’s completely fine. The release is only touchy though when the blaster is half primed (the priming handle being all the way back though not pushed forward). My overall thoughts on the Echo (CS-10) are that it performs very well and over the course the of the 4ish days I’ve had it it has not jammed. I will update once I have the Phoenix. *UPDATE* I really like the phoenix. It preforms quite well and the grip is pretty decent. Paired with the shorter stock off of the echo CS-10 and a worker 22 banana mag. I used adventure force waffle head darts and got a chronograph reading of 75, 71, 80, 79 and 81. with the BARREL off of the echo however I did not even want to waste battery life of both the phoenix and my chronograph. With whatever darts I used they lamely spit out of the barrel immediately nose-diving and dropping to the floor. When I use the Phoenix for CQB tournaments/situations I run it with as previously mentioned the echo stock (because of its shortness as I am only 5'3) with a worker 22 round banana p mag as well as 2 18 round clear mags on my body. I use a vertical grip attached below where the battery tray is located. It depends on the day but I may also add the scope from the phoenix or a red dot. Hope you guys found this helpful. @TheAtticusStar @Avikshit Basak @Trickish-spark39 @Jamin Rockethead
I have two Firestrikes. One I got for a birthday and one I got myself. Back when I was pretty new to Nerf I ran a Rampage primary and the Firestrike as a backup. Rad little single shooter.
Just a note, The Volt is actually more related to the firestrike, in my opinion, but that descended from the Nite Finder anyway. also, the commander seems more related to the disruptor, but I can see where the Spectre came from
I think he mainly said the commander is like the spectre mainly because both the commander and the spectre have both a muzzle attachment and stock attachment but the strongarm/disruptor has neither
I have a Phoenix and I learned to use my offhand thumb to press that in while the rest of my hand grabs the mag. It's a terrible mag release design on an otherwise decent gun.
Apparently not, because Flip Shots are going to be a thing. Call me judgemental, but I'm not willing to give this shameful line a chance that it doesn't deserve, even with some new gimmick trying to win me over.
I own the commander and phoenix and they are really great. No problems at all. Im getting the turbine very soon so im gonna update when i get it. Got the turbine and it is pretty good. Sometimes its a little hard to get the mag out but other than that, no other problems. I think yall should get it.
Coop: The many bottles of whatever that is: bonjour (I do wanna see Coop create a concept of their ideal nerf blaster in a computer program of some sort)
I like the Echo the most, because i like the retaliator. The only downfall is that the mag release is very sensitive. It falls out 8 of the 10 times, but you need to point the Echo up when your reloading, then your fine.
I found a Phoenix at a Goodwill store for $2. It was missing the jam cover but a functional flywheel gun for $2? No way in hell I'd pay full price for an Elite 2.0 product but two bucks at Goodwill is well worth the price.
Hasbro doesn't seem to be announcing any new Elite 2.0 blasters, so I think they learned their lesson. I hope whoever came up with the utterly horrid idea of Elite 2.0 got fired.
I can understand why Hasbro made these so hard to take apart, it's been clear for a while now that they are against modding blasters, as evident from the warnings of almost every Blaster saying not to modify the blaster.

Oh thank goodness I bought the commander I'm new to nerf and I was doing some research after I bought it cuz I bought it basicly the sec I saw it (dumb ik) and saw a ton of people saying it sucked but I looked deeper and found that most people actually like it
My younger brother always wanted a roughcut but couldnt get one even tho we had many opportunities. Now 1 month ago he got his wish back in his mind and told him to buy the warden since it was available on store shelves. We were going to buy it but decided to find the original for its better design So we got one from my friend who didnt play with nerf anymore and now im glad we got the og instead of that piece garbage in the trash
I got the volt recently. I actually really enjoyed it's performance. It shot very far and the laser was accurate. The only problem was, the battery insertion place is really difficult to get to.
I was excited about this series, I much prefer ultra. Im not really the nerfer in like a war, i normally just roleplay with mine, and i think ultra fits that playstyle, even shooting them, ultra one and AMP worked good, I might buy the turbine though.
@@ziploc2000 well in russia a hammershot is slightly more expensive. Strongarms only come in 2-packs, but the clear version still exists, but costs as a double pack.
but... but... aside from the issues with the clips and glue, I actually love my turbine. Yes, I'm holding back the bile as I say I "love" a 2.0 blaster...
I wouldn't have minded if they were clipped, but adding glue is a dealbreaker. Hasbro though has been doing this for quite a while. I collect Transformers, and my 2003 Energon Optimus Prime has screws, clips and glue, which i found out to my annoyance when I tried to fix the broken hip ratchets.
I’ve had 2, the turbine and phoenix, the turbine has issues but I still love it and it’s ton of fun, great ergo and good fire rate…the Phoenix is decent but it’s not as compact as the stryfe or as fun, the stryfe is perfectly weighted and sized with a nice grip, also a awesome mag release Wayyy better than the phoenixs terrible stiff mag release
my favorite in this series is probably the commander i have one and it just makes you feel tactical or like a spy or something its super fun if you have someone who needs a smaller cheaper nerf gun the commander is good its cheap and really cool
Another problem with the warden is that sometimes after a while you can no longer shoot darts from one side. It will only shoot one side no matter how hard you pull and will dry fire if the working side is empty
Hey Coop. I've always been curious. Ever done a review where you first saw the blaster and thought it was gonna be a real piece of crap but after the review you actually liked the blaster? Big fan.
Commander 8/10 best elite 2.0 blaster Echo 6/10 I bought mine for the barrel Phoenix 5/10 just buy a stryfe Shockwave 3/10 is it better or worse Trio 7/10 it works Turbine 5/10 personal reasons Warden -10/10 "its elite 2.oof!" Volt 7/10 again, it works
The mag release problem with the Echo CS-10 was also apparent in the Delta Trooper, it's worse on the Echo though because of the placement of the release trigger.
