Waitaminit, I do have a thought. This might seem really lame, but think of it this way:  I’ve been Nerfing for a decent amount of time now; I think Elite was brand new when I started, and I bought a lot of blasters from yard sales and thrift stores. My favorite blasters are really just the ones I’ve had the longest, so the Maverick, Crossfire, Alpha Trooper, Spectre, and then a few more, but you get the point. So I’m a bit partial to yellow blasters.



What I want is a new Maverick. Not a Strongarm, not a Disruptor, or a Hammershot. But not a repaint or just slightly better internals. It should have some of the same distinctive features from the Mav, like the handle, the silver slide, cylinder, boxy fore-end, and yellow color scheme. It should also look faded and battle worn. One thing I’ve thought of is a faded elite blue with yellow under it where it’s worn out. So a tribute to some of the really classic blasters, but with revamped internals too. Which of course would mean changing some proportions, but that’s fine.
