We're all in a bizarre situation currently, with the COVID-19 pandemic forcing us to stay at home, and have extremely limited contact with the outside world. So, from time to time, we need to introduce a little bit of fun and excitement into our lives at home. And what better way to do so than shooting your roommate with Nerf blasters?
We're all getting a little bit of cabin fever at this point, and we all have a bit of pent-up energy. There is no better way to get rid of that energy than having a Nerf blaster war. And if you need to take a break from playing Fortnite, you can bring the video game into your home with a new line of Rippley-themed Nerf blasters.
The line of three blasters is coming exclusively to Best Buy in May, and a couple of them are repaints of Fortnite Nerf blasters from last year. But what's really important is that these upcoming blasters are a lot of fun and a great way to assault your roommate when they eat all the ice cream, which you went to the store and bought for yourself.
Hasbro sent us a few from the new upcoming set to check out and to shoot around the house. Here they are along with a few details about them.
SP-Rippley
SP-Rippley
This is just a repaint of Nerf's Fortnite SP-L blaster from last year, but it's still a great one. It comes with six darts and the detachable "silencer." You can't really silence a Nerf blaster because it's already so quiet, but it sure does look cool, right? It's pretty much the standard Nerf blaster that you cock back to shoot.
AR-Rippley
AR-Rippley
Much like the SP-Rippley, this is a repaint of another Fortnite blaster. It comes with 20 darts, and it is fully automated, as long as you put some AA batteries in it. When the "engine" is ramped up, it sounds pretty awesome, and the darts fire very far. Does it hurt when you get shot with them? It's a bit of a stinger and will get the person's attention.
RL-Rippley
Everything about the RL-Rippley is hilarious. It's a Nerf bazooka that comes with two missiles, and it is a great representation of its in-game counterpart. And yes, if you get shot with it, it stings. It's a very bulky blaster, but it's just so absurd that you can let it's size slide.
All of these blasters are coming to Best Buy in May.
