That's the other thing... the Iron Man helmet fires plastic missles... they should have had that puppy fire darts at the 75 foot ranges. Then you'd have people getting the helm for the duel purpose of eye protection and extra dart fire. It's not just sloppy, they are missing out on great opportunities to cross promote thier own merchandise. You have to design the product either way... production costs would be similer. It's basically flushing away free advertising.

It is curious with the alternate foam discs. Perhaps those were prototypes when they were designing the XLR system?

Maybe both products could be modded to use the standard Nerf fare?
