NERF (officially in all-caps, but more commonly just "Nerf") is a subsidiary of Hasbro that produces soft foam balls, darts, and dart guns. Originally produced by the Parker Brothers corporation, Nerf was acquired by Hasbro during the purchase of Tonka.
Several Transformers-branded products have featured Nerf's dart-gun technology, which uses puffs of pressurized air to propel soft foam darts.
Merchandise
Transformers (2007)
- Optimus Prime Battle Rig Blaster (2007)
- Accessories:
- The Optimus Prime Battle Rig Blaster transforms from a super-deformed amalgamation of his Movie truck and G1 Optimus Prime's truck (indeed, pulling G1 Prime's trailer) to a fully G1-style robotic forearm and hand with a built-in Nerf gun. Simply place your hand inside the back of the trailer (I need an adult!) and pull back on the front of the truck, and the gun transforms and folds back into a weapon. It comes with three Nerf N-Strike-size whistle darts, which can be stored inside the trailer. Although not shown in the image, the truck front splits in half in gun-mode, while the grille acts as a sight. This toy was marketed as the "Optimus Prime Big Rig Blaster" in markets overseas from the U.S.
- Optimus Prime Blaster (2007)
- Accessories:
- An extensive redeco of the Energon Optimus Prime role-play Energon Blaster, this toy "transforms" basically by extending. It fires suction-cup-tipped Nerf darts and is a Wal*Mart exclusive.
- Starscream Barrel Roll Blaster (2007)
- Accessories: 4 Nerf N-Strike foam missiles
- This version of Movie Starscream's alt mode turns into a robot fist holding a two-barreled blaster, which fires Nerf ammunition.
SDCC 2011
- A redeco of the [Nerf Barricade RV-10] was released at San Diego Comic Con 2011 with a repainted color scheme based on a Transformer. Not that one sadly enough. The paint scheme is red and blue, based on Optimus Prime, with Optimus Prime decals and designs. The weapon is fully automatic and has a revolving barrel that can hold ten whistler darts.
Notes
- Classics Megatron strongly resembles the NERF N-Strike Maverick dart gun, in one of the awesomest bits of cross-promotion ever.
