Blue Pinpoint Sight availability

Pinpoint sights? You know I LOVE Pinpoint sights:D Neil from the Canberra and Southern NSW Dart Tag crew got the official word from the horse's mouth- being Hasbro Australia regarding the upcoming much discussed Elite colourschemed Pinpoint Sights:

"...We will have the new blue Pinpoint Sight available in Au and NZ though in really small numbers. They will be tied to a gift with purchase promo in early 2013. We only have 2400 pieces available for AU and 1000 for NZ...."

    I hope they eventualy release them for everyone to be able to get one that wants one. Sure I understand that Toys r Us is using it to up the sales of thier over priced blasters & to be honest what greedy corporate wouldn't given half the chance. But I think this item would sell well even without a gimmic.

    I have already gotten one in Singapore Toys R Us :P
    They still have lots of stock. Those staying in Singapore should get one fast cos it may run out eventually. You guys can go to SGNerf for more info: http://sgnerf.blogspot.sg/2012/10/nerf-pinpoint-sight-blue-version_25.html

    The 'Elite' Pin Point Sight is not for sale but you will get it free only when you purchase a Elite gun worth more than SGD $60 at Toys R Us. But some people are annoyed by the fact that it is $60 is because the Retaliator costs $59.90...

    Btw, the Elite Pin point sight is exactly the same as the original yellow pin point sight except the colour is different. My Elite Pin Point sight has a few spots that were badly painted and the transparent plastic piece is full of small scratches which makes me unhappy :(

    Another thing about the Elite Pin Point Sight is the 'Blue Maverick' at the side of the box... It could be the Nerf N-Strike Elite Strongarm but the tactical rail seems to be at the wrong place...

    Urban Taggers,

    PLEASE PLEASE read this. I've sent you an email of two interesting pics of the upcoming 2013 Elite blasters.

    In New Zealand, Farmers are offering these to plug the sale of an Elite blaster. Their RRP is 20NZD and coincide with a sale of elite blasters...with Retaliators costing 40NZD. Contrary to previous assumptions, you can also buy them separate for the full price. This I believe is great value, and I picked up 3.

    BTW I don't believe the "limited units" pitch as the shelves were stocked with them.

    Look buddy. I spent the last four weeks looking for this thing! And all the regular ones are sold out! And your telling me that the only way I could get one is if I went to redneck island! Look sorry for criticism, but it really isn't fair. Especially that I'm living overseas. What hard with online sales?

    Heh. I think its rather rare too, although my friend and cousin has one each, they got it at singapore toys r us too. Trading with them one pinpoint elite sight for nitron sights(centerfire tech electronic scope), and im wondering if it is a good deal.
