Nerf Rayven CS-18- US Release dates (speculative)

We've been talking about the much anticipated Nerf Rayven CS-18 for a while, but our well respected contact States-side has informed us that there's now very strong evidence to suggest the Rayven will be released around the end of January 2012 with a RRP of $39.95. US e-tailers are already offering it for a bit cheaper, but in general you're still looking at that 35-40 buck mark.

Thanks to Jason for the intel!

  9. I doubt it is going to be 40, but that is just based on size and dart amount. The Alpha Trooper has an 18 Dart clip and was bout 20 here in the US, and the other flywheel gun the Barricade was 17, and from what I can tell this gun isn't that much bigger than an Alpha Trooper (Could be entirely wrong on that though) and I doubt the Firefly clip would raise the price that much. I am betting The Rayven will probably be 25 in stores, at most 30.

  10. Jeeze that's too expensive! I guess I'll just get one instead of two like I was originally planning. Maybe I'll clip mod a barricade to go with it. I guess if the Rayven is coming out then, then maybe the speedswarm is too? One can only hope.

  12. Just a question, does the clip work in any CS blaster?

  13. @saxophowned

    i do believe it does, as another review i saw did use some other non light up clips which were orange.

    please don't quote me on this though, as i only skim these things, but i am fairly certain.

    Hope it helps, and please, correct me if i'm wrong :)

  17. I'm not going to whine about the price. I have more N Strike weapons than I need and want this one for sure. I'd spend more on something else anyway.

  18. I would rather buy another raider instead of paying $40 for the rayven

  19. iv seen it at target for $30 in NC 12-30-11

    Why? Compared to the Alpha Trooper and the Rayven, the Raider is crap. Heck, the Alpha Trooper is basically Raider 2.0, and the Rayven is better because you can dual-wield it.

  21. are there any in the uk

    ReplyDelete
  22. 40$ is fine for me

    ReplyDelete
  23. what about canada, eh?

  24. If in Brazil a Raider is R$200 (115 dollars), the Rayven will be at about R$320 (180 dollars). :/

  25. The Rayven seems like a great gun. I don't see why everyone is fussing about the price. I got tons of cash for christmas which means that I could probably get 2 to duel weild. The Rayven reminds me of a P90 SMG
    crossed with a G18 machine pistol. Thats one out of many reasons at why I like it.

  26. considering the fire-fly tech and the 18 bullet clip (compared to the 10 of the barricade)it's not surprising that its a little bit more than the barricade (dunno where you guys are getting your barricades from but RRP is about $29 at Big W or Kmart in Australia). It's coming with a clip and more darts so I anticipated $35ish

  27. This actually looks to me like an F2000
