Toy brand Nerf unveiled yet another addition to their long line of foam-based toy guns. This time, it is the Mandalorian Sniper Rifle Nerf Gun replica from "The Mandalorian" - a series from the Star Wars franchise now topping the charts of streaming app Disney Plus.
The Nerf replica is named the Amban Phase-Pulse Blaster. It is almost an exact replica of the original gun in the series. Although the orange and white trademark colors of Nerf are obviously visible, it still looks like a legit rifle, with its bottom stock colored in brown like what most rifles have. It is measured at four feet long, making it probably as the longest Nerf gun rifle to date.
'The Mandalorian' Sniper Rifle Nerf Gun Features and Pre-Order
It also has on point sound effects, which could greatly resemble the sounds of the gun while being used in the series itself. It only requires two AAA batteries in order to activate the sound effects function. The gun could be used on a variety of purposes intended. It could be a collector's item, an additional piece used for cosplay, or for casual play of Nerf guns. Its creators state that by having the replica gun, one could imagine how it is to be the Mandalorian himself, while tracking down bounties and defeating the opponents just like in the setting of the actual series.
Yet with its wingspan, using it on battles and duels of Nerf gun contests could be both an advantage and disadvantage. Advantages could include its capacity to be a long-range gun and could target opponents by hiding and setting it up from a far distance. Its disadvantage on the other hand also comes from its long measurement. It could be not handy enough if a Nerf player uses this while running and sneaking through his or her opponents.
