Rumours: More on the white N-Strike variants..

 

Interesting news from one of our readers regarding these mysterious white variant N-Strike blasters:


"Once again Germany's blasted.de got more information- http://www.blasted.de/t1106/ while only your blog entrys are linked there on the first view, there is also a screenshot available of Muller's (large German drug store) internal order system spotting "exclusive NERF N-Strike White Blasters". Deploy, Nitefinder and Maverick."

Update 5-5-11 : A reader from our Facebook page has posted the screenshot of the Muellers internal ordering system- see below:



It's a shame though that it's the same lineup of Maverick, Nite Finder and Deploy as with the Sonic and Clear series. History would suggest that the Recon CS-6will be in there too, but it'd be very nice if it was something else. What do you reckon folks, do you think there WILL be a fourth blaster in the white variant? And while it probably WILL be a Recon, if you had your way, what blaster would you like to see have this white treatment?

  1. Wishful thinking says a longshot. More than likely says the reflex -.-

  5. I personally would love to see a white recon. The recon has always been their classic go-to blaster, on top of that it was my first new blaster, so I just really like the recon for it's modular abilities. But what I REALLY want to see is the Longstrike. Nerf's smexiest blaster with a new paintjob is just what we need. Sigh. If only the Longstrike had the potential of a Longshot... then it would become a very popular blaster. Right now, it's just cool. I'm ok with that.

  6. A longshot would definitely be awesome. I'm in America, so I can't get my hands on a longshot. I mean, if they can make people buy recons and mavericks just for the repaint, why not use it as an opportunity to bring back the longhot. I think it would be a great marketing decision.

  7. After I posted that last comment, I visited the website. Sorry for the double post, btw. Anyway, they seem to be mentioning you. Didn't know if you caught that or not. Well, just a heads-up for you, Pocket. P.S. if anyone can speak german, please translate!

  8. I personally want the White Maverick, and even though it is kinda crappy I do love the design of the Deploy and would like to get on with the white paint scheme. I also want to see the exclusive guns and the Longstrike get repaints. I really like those.

  9. Longstrike. Definitely. Maybe the Stampede, but I'd rather have the Longstrike, Longshot, or Spectre in this.

  10. I've registered and posted the info onto The Urban Taggers Facebook page. Other than that all that the thread says is that UT has one of the blasters that the listing represents. A few people like them, others don't, and one individual thinks that you painted it yourself.

  12. I'd hope for a pair of Barricades with a white stock, pinpoint sight, and two white lightbeams - one for each!

  14. expensive deploy, don't you think?

  15. Not just the Deploy, either, methinks. The NiteFinder should be only $6 max, and the Maverick is only $10. However, as this is Germany, and they use the euro, it might make more sense... Actually, not even! I just checked it, and the 10 euros comes out to around 14.85723 USD, and 13.83654 AUD! So that's still a lot more than usual...

  16. I'd actually be happy with it being the Recon. But then again a "white series" Longstrike would make me lose my marbles!

  17. Bluefire: Don't be irritated by the prices you get when converting Euros to USD. In Germany, they'll charge you 10 Euros (at least) for a standard Yellow NF as well. All Nerf Guns there cost about 30-50% more than in the US.
