The NERF PRO STRYFE X only has a SINGLE FLAW... 

Yes, it works with Talons. I must have edited out all three times I showed it off. This was a lot of work in a very short amount of time, but I hope I did some justice. I only slept 4 hours and I filmed the ending part 4 different times...

Coop would be proud

Was always sad I was too late to Nerf to be able to just walk into the store and pick up a Stryfe. Really cool to see it back.

I think the accuracy increase is due to the slightly higher weight of the AF darts

I agree, bossman. Hasbro had the opportunity to raise the bar, but chose to limbo under it instead. They elected to release a blaster with fewer bells, whistles, and accessories at a price point about 50% higher than a comparable blaster (100% higher in the case of the Mk. 3). I hope they can innovate some more in this line and this space, but this isn't the best start for them.

I can't remember the last time you reviewed a Nerf product and had such a huge smile your face in the video. It is good to see!

they did a stryfe as the first blaster cause its a blaster everyone in the modding scene has modded at least once. doing it with this blaster profile is genius as everyone in their grandmothers knows what a stryfe is, only making hasbro more money to make more in the line, either updating older blasters, or creating entirely new blasters. if they do make more where they update older blasters, id love to see the alpha trooper, rapid strike, raven, rough cut, or maybe even the hammer shot.

A half-dart Alpha trooper would be sick. I wonder what other blasters they plan on releasing

I miss coop. Every nerf content vid i see i think of him

I agree with Walcom. I would have payed $80 for this but it’s not worth the price. I’m glad Nerf is finally making pro blasters and I hope bigger and better things come from them in the future. For now it’s still Dartzone and the Omnia for me.

I am missing the classic "starting up from the front N-strike barrel lug so you can attach all your tacti-cool nonsense" already. RIP Coop772

They definitely did this on purpose To those who say why buy this when the Omnia exists, the Stryfe X's biggest strength is what Luke called the Holy Grail of Nerf mods Props to Nerf for actually creating a hobby blaster for those just trying out on hobby flywheelers

As much as I'd love innovation in the pro line, I'd definitely be down if the first few Pro blasters were upgrades of their most beloved blasters, lie the Alpha Trooper X and the Rapidstrike X

Kinda want to see an pro level rapid strike from hasbro

“And I do mean *physically* massive.” Lol we love you walrus man 😊

The strife X might not be as cheap as the omnia but I have seen a lot of hobbie grade blasters that are more overpriced. Out of the box without a paint job it looks super good, and it is nice to have variety. I am a fan of it being simple, refined and reliable. I see this baster bringing a lot of new people into the hobby. Plus it is not a target exclusive, so it will be easier for a lot of people to get a strife X.

From your 10 Shots with the NERF Accu-Strike Pro Darts, you're hitting an average of 165.5 FPS. That's really damn good.

In my experience testing accustrikes and cutting them down to half length, they dont do as well as if they were full length. They also dont seem to like higher FPS and sometimes end up pulling elite dart shenanigans.

Some thoughts -the fact that it’s a stryfe is VERY cool and I hope to see an X Longshot, X Alpha Trooper, etc. -not making the half darts elite colored makes me sad but it’s a good accustrike throwback still -USB C BAYBEE -the Omnia is cheaper THIS is what Elite 2.0 should have been. This is super sick, I hope they make more, and Hasbro has regained my respect

Yes! I love how it's more powerful than it says, right out of the box. Needless to say, I pre-ordered a couple already. Coop would be proud. And no more Roblox blasters, please. Thank you, Hasbro. lol

Absolutely nothing against you walcom but I’m very sad not to see coop make a reveiw on this 😢 especially because the stryfe was his favorite

That stryfe spin at the beginning tho 🥶 🥶 🥶

Definitely agree on what you said about the price. Needed a select fire kit to really put it close to that price.

Cannot wait to get my hands on this one!

A half dart alpha trooper with improved mod potential would be a dream. And a Hammershot with a switchable cylinder similar to the adventure force Villainator would be absolutely sick

"And I do mean physically massive" lmao loved that one

2:39 walcom became coop

But I feel like that the reason the price is so high is due to it being the first of its kinda and if we want more we’re going to need to buy it so Nerf sees it as something worth keeping around, but that’s my opinion.

Sitting at blaster battle during the No feet round watching this is a new level of Nerf nerd

I really like that they also made it in Gear Up color scheme. Nice vid Walcom!

0:36 bros face 😂😂

The *PURE GUNDANIUM* comment made my day, thanks for being awesome as always Walcom!

Worker is gonna have a fun time with this one

I really think the proprietary battery, while super useful to those new to the hobby, severely limits this blaster to those already in it. Even if it goes on sale, I can’t undervolt it to bring it to HvZ, which is really all I’d use this for. Yes, that’s not the target audience, but it prevents it from having a wider audience where FPS limits are in place. I have a modded Rapidstrike that does something to the tune of 150+ on a 3S and 125ish on a 2S, and even with the battery and charger included I spent less overall on that blaster than I would on this, just for this to have less use cases without modification, at which point I’d be better off modifying a regular Stryfe. Plus, I can’t imagine that battery is remotely waterproof, while you could seal up a battery bay in any other blaster to make it relatively safe to use in light rain (not that it would be a good idea, but here in Florida, you never know when the rain will come and go). Beyond that, while Zuru and Dart Zone have embraced the modding community, while Hasbro explicitly said in an article by The Verge they still don’t support modification of their blasters, along with a few other anti-hobby things (imo) which for something targeted at hobbyists, seems like a great way to bite the hand that feeds. I understand some people don’t like the solenoid lag and size of the Omnia Pro, but to that end the Worker Nightingale provides an even smaller size, probably better build quality, and all while still being mechanically semi (or electronically full, should you choose that) auto and cheaper (assuming you have a battery/charger, though when I got mine I had none and still spent the same amount as this costs). Yes, it doesn’t hit 160FPS, but with how stupidly accurate that thing is, I don’t know that you need the extra 40. Granted, I’m not playing in competitive games, but I was explicitly recommended the Nightingale by several members of a competitive team (ORCA) and I can’t say I’ve ever been happier with a blaster purchase. Overall, this just seems like a massive blunder by Hasbro when you put it all together. As you said, if this were $60, it would blow nearly everything else out of the water, but it isn’t.

if only coop was still here, also awesome blaster dude bros

12:16 🤣🤣🤣 probably it's dangioum but i get it, it a common mistake 😂

now I wish Coop waited just a bit longer to leave, would have liked to see his reaction to this

Me if I was reviewing it: “N- no N-strike barrel lug.” *Starts crying in Jolt*

i wonder if there will be more pro version of nerf products, or even original pro products

I feel like I’m gonna just wake up at some point and be like “hah ofc nerf would never make somthing like this. What a weird dream”

As someone who has a small love for circuit boards, most of what was on that board are capacitors, a microcontroller and volt regulator, all to signify the charge levels, keep the gun at a constant RPM, and to over volting as well as under volting.

God I hope they make a springer. I would love to see a longstrike X or an Alpha Trooper X.

BOLTER BOLTER BOLTER HATRED IS THE EMPERORS GREATEST GIFT TO HUMANITY

Lookin good big Dawg!!

Okay the Freddy Time intro music suddenly cutting out is fucking hilarious, holy shit XD

I'm calling it now, Freddy is going to start talking soon 😂

0:49😂😂😂😂nice little joke

Dope review! 💯

Rapidstrike X and Alpha trooper X would be an awesome lineup

i love you Walcom your videos always bring a smile to my face, stay golden

Yo dude, this is awesome. I really like your new editing style, keep it up! 👍

Best intro of 2023

It may not be for everyone but I know that I'm absolutely the target audience for the Stryfe X, because I'm an outdoor player who loves flywheelers but doesn't like to mod and really doesn't want to deal with all the safety requirements of hobby grade LiPo packs; so I've just been contenting myself with a Dart Zone Pro MK-3 running on Eneloop rechargable AAs. For me getting a pro performance Stryfe reimagining running a truly safe and consumer friendly 3S LiPo pack is a HUGE win and well worth the high price tag! My only real complaint is the new rail system that no accessories currently exist for, but I'm sure the fine folks over at Out of Darts will be whipping up picatinny rail converter adapters for it in the not too distant future ^_^

Cant wait for the rapidstrike pro

5 years ago when I largely exited this hobby, I never thought Nerf would do anything like this and try to tap into the hobbiest market.

i cant beleive its taken this long for nerf to finally release a pro level blaster

Coop would be proud (pt.2)

Thanks for the review, I want to see someone test the MDM with the Stryfe X. I agree the price is a little high but it is Hasbro and they have to make money on the project. I'm considering getting one just for that reason and to justify the creation of the Pro Line. I want a Nerf Pro Rayven X so bad.

Yeeees hasbro is back in business

This has one unique usecase, as a flywheel sidearm which does require a battery that requires attention and care

Walcom made a whole movie trailer for this. I love it!

just ordered the omnia , no regrets 👍😁

totally off topic, but can I just say I love that you used music from gunz the duel.

Big question. Is the flywheel cage brush or brushless, and can the flywheel cage be replaced to suit personal preference?

I would love it if they gave this treatment to blasters that are hard to mod like the infinus or regulator

Love this review!

SICK VID!!!

Now on to wait for this same gun with N strike barrel option

Does it actually take Talon magazines? You said mag geometry was 'similar' to a Talon, but I'm curious if it will accept one out of the box without mods.

YO that is insane!!!!

Can’t wait for the Vulcan Pro

Good work on the video, thanks for the literal in depth details. Now get some sleep!

If nothing else this is a step in the right direction for Hasbro. Thanks for the video.

The magic is that circuit board. It's what allows you to just plug in that usb c and let it charge without worrying about over charging, over discharging, and other lipo storage issues.

I'm very surprised that nerf would do something like this. It shows that the company shifts more into performance which satisfy many more customers.

Cool

im actually proud of hasbro for one time

Lmao that face you made when you got the 173 rating

I hope they make a rapidstrike version as well. 🙏

you should mount it to a stand and measure group diameter to test the accuracy

For 130 bucks, it better have a n-strike barrel lug, and full length/half length adapter. Otherwise, I'm still going dart zone pro. The battery is pretty sweet tho.

Someone needs to make an mp5 mod for this, along side mp5 mags and a hk charging handle, and retractable stock alongside a full stock.

ohoho you took it apart! SWEET!!! Oh wow, the only flaw is the price? That's the best thing it could have been! Can't wait to get one on sale!

Feels weird to see Hasbro actually using the proper term for magazines.

Imagiane this and a PRO rapidstrike, roughcut and retaliator

NERF IS FINALLY GOING PRO!😊 🎉🎉

Looks cool, but hasn’t got a place in the few wars I do attend.

Love your shirt

Honey wake up, WalcomS7 just posted a new video

Looks like you could swap the barrel attachment from a regular stryfe into it.

In a decade, nerf is gonna have like a titan 50 cal machine gun with the blue and orange nerf drum lol

can also come down to if you want an end strike barrel or if you want that mag release in a good swap or like if you just don’t like half length darts darts there’s so that could be a reason to not get this strife

Thank you Hasbro 🙏

That’s your best shirt yet.

the craziest thing about this is that nerf calls the magazine a magazine on the box

That GunZ lobby theme thooo

OMG this man MADE A THIRST TRAP FOR A NERF GUN! And I love it

Seeing how fast this shoots just makes me sad, cause I know I will never see this thing in Australia

Welcome you should mod the rotofury to make it have the mastodon barrel

Hasbro took everything the worker did and put it on the stryfe too... Yes!!!!
