I thought this was the perfect nerf gun.

I was wrong.

That's when I reach for my revolver....

Ah, that is HOT. I'd want to get it or repaint one myself, but I keep remembering the horror story of some kid with a black nerf that got shot and killed by some police officer that was an idiot.

It was a lot neater looking before I found out it was just a repaint, psht!

A good reason to A) only use it at conventions and B) keep the safety cap on or paint the tip with blaze orange.

Repaints need love, too!

[windsinger.livejournal.com]

Oh man, it's too hot to only use at comventions. Maybe 'only use inside the safety of one's house'. And I don't think the blaze orange tip would help much, as the police officer that shot the kid was at a far enough distance that he wouldn't have seen something like that.

THAT SAID.

I don't know the internal workings of a nerfgun, or the screwtypes to take it apart. How easy do you think it would be to buy the gun and dismantle it for spraying?

Last time I took apart a nerf gun (and fixed it, dammit!) was back with my old Arrowstorm - it used phillips heads. Beyond that, I've no idea how complex the mechanism is on this.

That Spider-Man is such a shill...

At least this is a bit more tasteful than that Visa Check-card commercial.

That Visa commercial is a better use of Marvel material than *nearly* anything else I've seen these last few years.

And it has UNDERDOG.

[bzarcher.livejournal.com]

Underdog, yes. But the whiny, nasal, balls-haven't-dropped yet voice they used for Spidey? FAIL.

[bzarcher.livejournal.com]

Oh - get over here at some point so I can shoot you with nerf.

[dklegman.livejournal.com]

I don't exactly see you proving me wrong. :-D

[dklegman.livejournal.com]

See, I thought that kind of quality was particular to Spider Man. At least, that's what I gather from watching the movies, where I was sort-of-rooting for the villians to slap him from here to there.

[bzarcher.livejournal.com]

Spider-Man should have a vibrant, occasionally snarky baritone.

[bzarcher.livejournal.com]

That's because you haven't seen my new gun.

Come and see. It's meaty.
