This is why I like reviews in this style. He says his personal opinion on stuff but it doesn't affect the rating of the blaster. He still reviews it properly and showcases everything about it that you need to know
I feel like Nerf took a lot of inspiration from the af spectrum with this, the jam door, carry handle/tac rail, mag release, and the general shell of the blaster resembles it greatly
Protip: Avoid puting the magazine from the Halo MA40 in this gun. I learned that the hard way. Basically the magazine release will bump up against the bump on the mag and just- not work anymore. I had to pry mine apart to get the magazine out.
Just a tacticool heads up for those looking to mod the StormCharge, there are TWO clips in the blaster: The teal plates in the grip. However, they can be easily removed with patience and the right tools. This is not as easy to open up like the Stryfe.
The grip is clipped on, but the rest can be opened without any clips or glue. Flywheel cage is very similar to the Turbine's, and Buffdaddy Nerf has made a printable cage already. Hope it'll be a viable alternative to the Stryfe for those who live where Stryfes are hard to find.
Nerf for the last five years: Oh, I guess it's a stryfe reskin... :/ Nerf right now: Oh! A stryfe reskin!! By which I mean, I am (and the community are in general, apparently,) happy to see something filling the semi auto flywheel niche, while also having the compact stryfelike form factor with no strings attached, back in mass production. We keep getting clunky, branded, gimmick blasters that are just the stryfe underneath, while the stryfe itself has been impossible to find firsthand, so I'm happy for a change
I tell you, as a parent of Nerf boys, they'd prefer to have batteries in their battery powered blasters, but if you have decide between pull-ups, groceries and gasoline and you forget about the blaster batteries, they'll play with dead or no batteries.
Coop has a good point there's a LOT of mod parts for the stryfe. I only wish there were more performance kits available for the rayven I can't find any
Looks wise it’s beautiful, tho I wish nerf would release 2 versions of designs like this, a springer and a battery operated form, simply because I’m more of a springer guy.
Nerf should sell stand alone attachment that match colour schemes, just like the modulus kit pack series they had a lot to offer. Atleast then we can maybe have matching attachments, there wasn't really that much variety with the previous elite 2.0 colour scheme, unlike the modulus or N-Strike Elite.
The Wild Series so far have been the only blasters that should be considered Elite 2.0. The rest of the line would have had a much favorable reception if they were Alpha Strike 2.0
Stryfe will always be number 1 when modded. Its the most barebones semi auto. I don’t like when they put in carry handles, hand guards etc, you can’t remove them, whereas the Stryfe you can put a carry handle attachment you like or guards you like and not be restricted to the only one.
Constructive criticism incoming: The only thing I did not like about the video was in the My Opinion chapter. When you said if you want to mod choose the Stryfe, the only problem is that Stryfes are pretty hard to come by and may not be very accessible to viewers. Great video as always Frank! 🙂
I don't wanna see Elite 2.0 fail and die miserably and stuff like this gives me slight hope that they can do better. I'm hoping for Elite 2.0 to actually become a good line for casual people
Wow you know it’s a good grip when Frank gives it the ol thumbs up 👍. Only just getting into nerf and living in Australia, I missed my chance on getting the beloved Stryfe so this’ll be a decent substitute when it finally hits our shores 😎 and thanks for your reviews Frank. You cover all grounds with info and give new players like me good info on what to buy and avoid
i found the extra friction in the stormcharge's trigger and rev trigger really painful after a while. idk if it happens to everybody, but after firing 50+ rounds it gets painful and tiring to use.
Hi coop, you remember that horrifying tovol zerky shotgun thing? Well they've actually kind of Improved and I would love if you would give their newer sawn off double barrel a look!
Dude! Nerf is becoming nerf again. The nerf dark ages is ending!!! I hope they keep making blasters like this!! I miss the good ol' days of the regular elite and moduleus and this feels like both. I really miss all of the brands from 2013-2018. Thanks coop for reviewing this
I'm guessing Nerf realized the money their saving from NOT using screws in their 2.0 line of blasters has caused them to loose far more money from the people who would have bought their blasters so they could open them up an mod them.
Looking at the internals, it shouldn't be too hard to fix the nasty cost-cutting measures. But I'm waiting for a new barrel piece that follows the Stormcharge's outline before I consider getting one (although we never got the previous Wild Edition blasters...)
Haven't seen someone do it yet and I don't own one myself, but the Delta Trooper's barrel might work well. It has the same sort of tiger stripe pattern to it too.
@@lukeiannello6190 if the Stormcharge's barrel was a bit higher up, the Delta Trooper barrel would be the best fit. It looks like the Eaglepoint barrel would continue the foregrip but obviously doesn't have anything to round off that flat section at the top of the Stormcharge.
You should do an updated loadout for how you’d nerf for a big event. I feel like it’s been a long time since you did one of those and it’d be a cool video!
So, this is a conundrum I have and I'm going to probably repost it on the latest videos of a couple different Nerf youtubers I trust so I can fish for opinions from their communities, but I've got enough disposable money right now to grab one new blaster for my collection before the end of the month and would like opinions for each one I'm waffling around about. 1: Motoblitz. A bullpup flywheeler with an air-tank powered "master key" shotgun sounds really fun, but is the most expensive of the ones I'm considering. 2: Stormcharge. Would like a Stryfe formfactor Flywheeler in my collection, but the accessories seem lackluster. 3: Trailblazer. The most affordable one I'm considering, a hammer-action 8-round revolver is both fun and frugal.
Sup frank, my bad if I ask the same question again but please review the Spas 12 toy blaster, it's pretty worth it and TRUST ME you won't be disappointed! 😎 Edit: Also here's a tip, prime it in the normal way or else it will get jam. :D
OMG, IT HAS THE SAME STOCK & BARREL AS BATTLECAMO STRYFE as you can see, i am happy for no reason. Also, small grip? Finally a gun that looks cool, modular I guess, and it has a smaller grip :D
I just realized that the barrel attachment of the eaglepoint is designed to flow into the otherwise awkward forward grip of this blaster when attached to it
