Nerf Vortex repaints on US shelves- TN


We saw these Nerf Vortex repaints featured at some of the toy fairs early this year and they're starting to make it onto shelves in the US. Our good pal Dave in Tennessee spotted this Proton in his local Target; I for one welcome the new scheme as the old putrid green was definitely not in favour at UT basecamp:P 

I also like the new colour of the XLR discs although they do sorta remind me of a breath mint- look how happy the model is. He too likes fresh mint firing goodness!:P


Cheers Dave for the pics!

  1. Come on... Give me a reason to buy the vigilon Nerf!!

    Haha, in all seriousness though, I like the scheme, it gives individuality to players who aren't too into adding their own paint jobs to their predictable blue elite blaster

  6. 1 confirmed on the shelf in Flagstaff, Arizona. Thought about buying it, but I'm on vacation and the wife would frown. The bottom of the box shows the Revonix and the Diatron recolored.
