After what seems like an eternity of abstention, I finally located a used Mastodon via Kijiji for $35 CAD! Quite the heavy and bulky beast. Pretty decent rate of fire on six D batteries, but the range leaves something to be desired. It might seem plain at first, but I've got plans for this baby. No way I'll let this monster be eclipsed by my spring-powered Mega brethren! I also caved in and bought two AccuStrike blasters from Canadian Tire: the AlphaHawk and RaptorStrike. Each was on sale for just under $30 CAD, NIB. I was particularly inspired by one mod project which turns the RaptorStrike into a half-decent reproduction of the Steyr AUG bullpup assault rifle. I also located a used blue Khaos and red Jyn Erso Deluxe blaster for $25 and $15 CAD, respectively. Unfortunately, the former had a crippled magazine, and the seller refused to acknowledge this as an issue until I went home to grab my own Khaos magazine and Rival Battery Pack to demonstrate. At least the blaster did work as designed when all parts were present. I got the seller to throw in a Disruptor. (Yawn 😴)
