Assuming you're from the UK or Zimbabwe, £150 is a decent budget. That's about $200 USD. So you could potentially get ALL the blasters we've been talking about. (Although maybe take a pass on that Tek 3 😉)

MMan is right, the Alpha Strikes are cheap and can't compete in a nerf war. With a couple of exceptions, the whole series has subpar FPS. Many lack tac rails, and there's no real way to upgrade them because of their construction. I don't know anyone in the NIC who is recommending Alpha Strikes over Elite, Modulus, and Zombie Strike blasters.

We can't get the Stryfe CQ-10 on this side of the pond, but that's the blaster I'd buy if I were in your shoes. Plus, there are literally hundreds of upgrade kits for the Stryfe, from cosmetic all the way to super-stock. It's one of my all-time favories, I only wish I could get a CQ-10 for myself.
