NERF LMTD Halo Needler Dart-Firing Blaster, Light-Up Needles, 10-Dart Rotating Drum, 10 Elite Darts, Game Card with in-Game Content

I mean look at this thing. Its aware of its looks and even gives a damn display stand... Havent even shot it haha. For cosplay or just a fan who cares your not using this as a nerf gun and you know it.

It’s a really detailed piece. I especially like that the needles on top turn off as you shoot so you’ll know when it’s out of ammo. It has a display mode that will stay turned on for 2 hours. While in this mode the motor won’t turn on so it won’t use up battery.

Such a well designed nerf. Looks very real to the games

Came mint in box and delivery was pretty quick. Overall very happy with the purchase and the motor works very well for only using AAA batteries

Got this for my step-son for Christmas who is a huge Halo fan. He absolutely loved it. I docked a star because its a little expensive for what it is, but I got it on sale so cant complain too much. Also, make sure you have AA batteries on hand because it takes 6 of them. We were scrambling on Christmas looking for them because stupid me forgot to make sure.

Ill just second what so many others are saying: Nerf has outdone themselves with this Needler. They probably didnt need to pay so much attention to detail and proportion for this, but they did and damn if they didnt just nail it. Size, weight, detailing.. its about as ideal and tru to my imagination as I could have hoped. Nice job, Nerf.

If there were two cornerstones of my life growing up, it was Nerf blasters and Halo. One of my longtime childhood fantasies was a Nerf Needler. Of all the crazy sci-fi weapons we wished we could have as a foam firing toys, the infamous bringer of pink mist was my pick. Ultimately it never happened during that time (BOOM Cos Needler was fun, but definitely didnt nail the looks), and eventually I grew out of the hobby scene in general. Yet, when I found out Hasbro was going to make a game-accurate, functioning replica of the Needler, I was chomping at the bit to get it. I think they knocked it out of the park. The blaster itself looks fantastic. Its almost identical in appearance to the Needler from Halo: Reach through Infinite. Almost all of the fine details are visible. The blaster itself is weighty and feels very sturdy. Whats nice is that all the protruding elements of the gun, like the fins on the bottom and the needles themselves are made of a flexible material so they wont break if you bump into them or drop the blaster. The lighting effects are also great looking. The LEDs are bright and the blaster has a neat feature of sequentially turning off the needles as you fire off darts, mimicking the games behavior. You reload the needles by flipping open and shut the cylinder door on the left side of the blaster. It also shoots surprisingly well, better than Id expect for a blaster that seemingly values looks over performance. Its a fully automatic electric plunger with a 10-dart cylinder, similar to the old Dart Tag Speedswarm. This was a pleasant surprise considering most new Nerf blasters have totally ditched this type of firing mechanism for flywheels. Im not going to bother range testing it, but it fires hard and darts fly out to ranges that Id expect of most new Elite type blasters. It isnt the most consistent or accurate though, but thats to be expected of a blaster firing Elite darts out of barrels this short. Heavier darts and Id say you can stay on target pretty well with this thing. I do have some minor gripes though. Even though the colors are dead on, I wish they gave the gun a more metallic sheen like it has in game. Its also an ergonomic nightmare. The grip is horrid and its a pain to reload thanks to the giant muzzle that covers most of the cylinder. That said, its worth noting that this blaster basically eschews all practically in favor of being as accurate to the game model as realistically possible. Its not something youre going to want to play a round of HvZ with (or whatever people play these days). Its also a bit expensive, but I guess if you really want this thing then the price shouldnt be too big of an issue. Overall Im really happy with this Needler. Its definitely a childhood dream come true and Im glad its as good as it is.

My son was so excited for his birthday present thank you he loves it

To be honest I thought this thing was gonna be small. but its not When I got it I was like holy crap this thing is huge. First off this will be my first lmtd nerf gun. and to be honest this thing is awesome. It has a lot of fire power. And it looks good. And it has a display stand. And not only that you also get in-game content for the game which is really nice. If you are collector like me or just like get stuff like this Id say go for it.

This blaster is a real treat. Lots of lights, a display stand, and matching pink darts. It doesnt look as wide in my hand as the game model, but it is a nice representation. Clear flexible rubber spines on top look convincing while being safe-ish. The battery cover on the bottom was well hidden. Needs two phillips head screw removed to open it. A nice display piece.
