Yeah, I think I will stick with Sub-series for now. As Flat said, N-Strike Elite brought innovations to the line. VTX... Is probably just a way for Hasbro to use those casts they have, you know? And make some money over kids and old modders that feel nostalgic.

That's just like saying that ZED Squad shouldn't be a subseries. They had "new stuff", like the scoped Clear Shot, but in the end, it was just a rerelease, without any new performance tweaks. No, really. I did some research on it. Get a Clear Shot and its Dart Tag counterpart. Got them? Cool.

Now disassemble both, and take half a shell from each one. Try to rebuild the blaster. The halves, they'll fit perfectly. It's EXACTLY the same cast they used, the same mold. The same goes for the scope. It's not new.

The Longshot CS-12 used a 12-dart clip we had for a good while, and it does not have the bipod, neither the front blaster.

The melee weapons are not manufactured by Hasbro, so they don't actually count, do they?

I think the same logic applies to the Vortex VTX subseries. They didn't introduce anything new, so... Just like ZED Squad, or Gear Up, or Red Strike, it is a subseries.

But as I said before, let's see what other people have to say.
