Friday Finds for 10/03/2008 - Nerf N-Strike Vulcan EBF-25 is a Dud
Okay, this is the second Friday in a row where I’m not writing a “tech specific” Friday Find. But in my kid’s mind, Nerf guns are cool tech toys. That being said, I’ve got a warning for all Nerf gun fans: the latest addition to the Nerf arsenal is a complete dud.
The Nerf N-Strike Vulcan EBF-25 looked to be one of coolest Nerf guns yet. My youngest couldn’t wait for this toy to hit store shelves. Once it did, I was pestered to no end until I finally took him to Walmart so he could spend his hard earned cash on the latest gun from Nerf.
Unfortunately, once he got the gun home he was quickly disappointed. The handle was missing and worst of all, the gun did nothing but misfire and jam time after time. Normally, my son adapts to toys that don’t quite live up to advertised expectations. In the case of the Nerf N-Strike Vulcan EBF-25 he just couldn’t work around the gun’s poor performance and in less than 24 hours from purchase we were headed back to Walmart to return the toy. If you or your kids love these Nerf guns, don’t waste your money on this one — it’s a dud.
