Samurai Chopsticks

Finally I was able to find time to do some blogging.

Today is about my Sengoku Basara chopsticks. Each chopstick is design with certain characters from Sengoku Basara.

Now to the review.

The packaging.


Each box is label with the characters its themed with and their symbols.
The blue box: Masamune Date
The yellow box: Keiji Maeda
The red box: Yukimura Sanada


The chopstick holders even have their symbols.


The chopstick with on the holder.

Its easy to handle and fits perfectly with my hand.


The end of the chopsticks are design with the hilt of the characters' katana.

This is Yukimura Sanada.


This one's belong to Keiji Maeda.


And this is Masamune Date's.


I definitely not gonna use these chopsticks for anything ^^

Well thats all for today. Hope you guys enjoyed it.

Firefly...Nerf, Not The Bug

I apologize again for the poor quality of the picture.

Today's post is all about Nerf, again.

Another recently bought blaster and I bought this one from Little M toyshop for quite a cheap price. Today's blaster is the Firefly REV-8.

Picture of the box.
It glows in the dark?! Awesome ^^

Now to see what is inside the box.
Another blaster that dosnet require any assembly ^^
And as usual, an instruction manual.

A bit bigger than the previous blaster, the Hornet AS-6.
It looks like more a futuristic weapon.

The firefly uses the micro dart. But these ones looks like albino micro darts.

Its a good habit to read the manual first before doing anything even though it looks very simple.
You might never know what stuff you can learn from it.

Another simple manual sheet.
And a glow in the dark sticker is provided. Now I know why it says it glow in the dark.
It has glow in the dark stickers on the darts.

Time to unleash the beast.

It seems that they prefer to use industrial bundles on one piece blasters.
Again for those below 12, please ask from your older siblings or parent to cut the bundle.


Finally, time to play around with this gun.
As you can see, the trigger is way in front of the blaster, allowing the end to rested on your shoulder for support.


The Firefly uses a revolving mechanism like the Maverick. But it can hold up to 8 darts. 2 more darts than the Maverick.


The Firefly provides 8 dart holder, 4 on each sides. Isn't that just convenient.


Top view of the dart holder.


Another unique feature of the Firefly that there is a switch. Wonder what is it for.


The hatch for the batteries. It requires 2x AA batteries.


The cocking mechanism. The location of the mechanism is almost similar to the Maverick.
Could it be the Maverick is a smaller version of the Firefly?


Just like any Nerf blasters, the Firefly too can use other Nerf blasters accessories.

Now to the darts.
8 micro darts given and a 8 pieces of glow in the dark stickers provided.

Reading the manual, the stickers are to be rolled onto the darts.
The end product. 8 glow in the dark micro darts.

Now lets see how does the darts fit into the holder.
Fits nicely.

From above view.

Now for the darts loaded in the Firefly.
Looks so deadly.

So wonder what was the switch for? Its really hard for me to take the picture of it but I found a video that can sums up my review on the Firefly.



Overall, I think the firefly can be use as a primary weapon for Nerf wars since it has larger ammo capacity than the Maverick and it also provides darts holder.
And also something that just might distract the opponent.

Well thats all for today.
Hope you guys enjoyed it as much as I did in making this review.
Till next time.

Another Nerf Review

Before I start my review, I want to apologize on the poor quality of the image.

Today's review will be on one of my recent purchase Nerf Blasters, the Hornet AS-6. I bought from Miri since its not sold here separately.

Here is the picture of the box.

Now lets see whats inside.
The unveiling of the Hornet AS-6.
Awesome, no assembly required. It can go directly to the battlefield ^^


Lets see what else is in it.

The ammo used by the Hornet. Micro darts or some would refer to suction darts since it uses suction cups on the head.
Just 6 darts given. Better shoot wisely then.


As usual the manual is also given.
A piece of paper with very simple instruction since no assembly required.

In front.

At the back. The picture shows how to use the Hornet.

Now lets get the Hornet out of the box.
They use the industrial bundle instead of the metal strip that was used for the other Nerf.
So to those kids out there please ask for help from your older siblings or parents since you need to use sharp object to cut the bundle.

Now let the inspection begins.

1st, Handling.
It fits nicely in my hands. And its quite heavy.

2nd, Action Mechanism.
Instead of using the cocking mechanism, the Hornet uses pump-action mechanism.
The standard amount of pump-action recommended by the manual are 20 times.


3rd, Loading and Reloading
As you can see, the Hornet dosent require any clips or ammo belt. Instead the darts goes in directly to the barrel. All 6 of it. So reloading can be faster for some or slower.

4th, Trigger Mechanism.
Here the Hornet provides two type of firing option.
Single shot
Multi shot or Salvo.

Since it uses pump-action, it can be said that the Hornet is kinda like an automatic weapon for it dosent require any more pump-action until all darts have been fired.

The video below will demonstrate the single shot and multi shot. The video below is not mine and I will not take any credit from it.



Overall I would say this is an awesome gun but I dont recommend it as your primary weapon in a Nerf war because of its pump-action mechanism. More suitable as a secondary Nerf.

Well thats all form me.

Hope you guys enjoyed it as I did in making the review.

Till next time.

So Sad

I broke my camera few days back and I forgot to back up the data, so all my data was lost. How I broke it? I took it for a swim -_- bad idea. I should have leave it at dry land. Hopefully my mobile camera is up for the task until I got it fixed or replaced. I apologize in advance for the poor picture quality. Gomenasai

I do hope you will still enjoy my future post.

BruNerf Wars Ops: Battle of the Palms

I'm back ^^ Did you guys missed me?

Anyway I apologize for my long absent for I was busy and also lacking in material to post. But after clearing some dust it seems I do have a number of items left to be reviewed.

Well before those reviews, now I want to post something that happened today. BruNerf Wars Ops: Battle of the Palms.

For those who dont know what Nerf is, you guys can check it out from my label Nerf of just click here.

The event was organized by BruNerf. A group of enthusiastic Brunei who love Nerf. To know more and/or join BruNerf click here. It was held at the abandoned jogging area at Jerudong Park. These are some of the pictures I took during the event.

These are the first groups I saw at the event.

These guys are the veterans of the event. Well geared up for the battle and came in a large numbers.
These guys are from the Hordez Resistance and Gears N.P.M.C



Photo session before the battle.


I was standing from a bad angle so I had to retake another shot to cover the entire group.

That kid is holding a Styrofoam board, using it as a riot shield. Good idea.


In that hut below is the gathering point for the Nerf Tactical Force or N.T.F.


And these guys are the Black Death Unit or B.D.U

Since I have no group of my own, I was assigned to the the B.D.U. A bunch of great guys.

These are the pictures taken during the battle. I was only able to take from a distance because I was nerf down so I had to sit still.

The picture above was taken during the "Capture the Flag" battle. A very formidable defense line. They totally outnumbered us.


Kids also enjoyed playing Nerf without the fear of getting hurt from being shot.


A quick briefing before the next battle "Capture the HQ"

Taken during "Team Deathmatch" between the Hordez Resistance and B.D.U. We were defeated due to the overwhelming number of opponent.

Well thats all the pictures I took during the event before leaving early due to the bad weather.

Well thats all for today.
Hope you guys enjoyed it.
