In the May 2013 issue of the Brazillian Tech magazine Info Exame, there is an article that Mr. S and I were interviewed for about Nerf in the workplace in the tech industry. It talks about how Nerf blasters are used to relieve stress and help to integrate employees into the business’ culture. It’s a short article, only one page, but it’s still an honor to be mentioned in print for our somewhat unusual hobby.

If you happen to read Portuguese, and I know there are a few of our fans out there that do, check it out. They don’t have the article online, but in the print and digital editions of the issue.

Are you an Adult Fan of Lego as well as an Adult Fan of Nerf? Then you might want to check out one of BrickForge’s latest offerings: a Dart Tag accessory pack! They’re offering two different packs, to allow you to construct two different dart tag teams (figures not included). They are both $6 a piece, which is a bit high when one is talking about a few accessories, but these are high quality and made in the US in smaller batches. The packs are:

Dart Tag (Delta Team)
- Maverick Hair
- Dart Tag Vest – Black w/ Medium Orange Crosshairs
- Medium Orange Darts (x2)
- Megagun
- Bow Striker – White
- Multi Arrow Pack
- Canister Gun – Bright Light Orange
- ‘Foam’ Sword – Lime Green & Medium Orange
- Automag – Lime Green

Dart Tag (Alpha Team)

It also looks like they’ll be offering a pair of Super Soaker accessory packs in the future as well, though as of the writing of this article, they’re not available on their store. Check them out, as well as their other awesome offerings at BrickForge.com.

In this episode, we talk about two Buzzbee blasters: the Range Master and Air Tek 8!

In this episode, we talk about the revised version of the Stryfe as well as the US release date of the Alpha Trooper. We also review the Snapfire 8!

In this episode we present a bit of recent news, and reviews on the Koosh Angry Birds Star Wars Han Solo Blaster, and the Iron Man “Iron
Flyer”.

Our show has become pretty popular, but our forum is pretty much dead. I believe this is due to the ‘closed gate’ structure that we had implemented on the forum to keep out bots. So I’ve decided to switch to a SubReddit instead, in the hope that there won’t be any bots and it will be more popular. So go and check it out at /r/afon on Reddit!

We’ll keep similar rules, but a bit more lax. We’ll also be monitoring the SubReddit more often so feel free to comment on our videos when we post them, ask us questions, and comments on current blasters! We do keep frequent contact with Nerf, so your opinions will be heard, they do care about what you think!

In this new and improved episode, we discuss our new format, then go on to some recent news, followed by a short review of the Dart Tag Stingers.
