When Modulus first came out, I thought it might eventually replace the Elite series. But as time went by, it was obvious Modulus was essentially competing against Elite. In other words, every Nerfer who bought a Modulus blaster, probably would have bought an Elite blaster if Modulus wasn't around. Competing against yourself like that is probably not good for business.

And the later models like the Recon MKII, Modulus Stryfe, and the LongStrike were just re-releases. So maybe you're right Tac, they just ran out of good ideas. To attract new Nerfers, they needed to diversify with RIVAL, AlphaStrike, and ULTRA.

Just a theory.
