That IS interesting. It's definitely not me fellas. But considering Mr. Knowles calls his darts by two names that I claim to have coined, I'm guessing he's read our little wiki once or twice. And lookit me, I'm an internet sensation already 😉

But if he'd been paying close attention, he would have seen my latest post comparing RadEagles, Double-Xs, and K'nex K-Force darts. Don't get me wrong, I love these Double-Xs. Especially the AliExpress ones Mojo found. But the RadEagles outperform them. Hands down. I've plinked HUNDREDS of rounds. IDK, maybe the difference isn't as noticeable in stock blasters. Or maybe he's from Denver where the air is thinner. (Hey, you asked for conspiracies, no)

But anyway, good luck Mr. Knowles. Soon you will discover Double-Xs in multiple colors, and your journey will be complete, grasshopper. Yep, I did read it, and so far my experiences are about the same yours. The RadEagles are slightly more accurate and get a bit more range, though the Double-X's are definitely the way to go with small kids around. I haven't shot nearly as many rounds as you, but for me the difference is slightly noticeable in a Strongarm, very prominent in a Jolt, and absolutely neglibile in a Sidestrike.

The color options are great. But I can't bring myself to order from AliExpress when there are Amazon Prime options available. I did manage to find the white "glow" version of the Double-X darts on Amazon (listed as EKIND HOLLOW OUT, in the "Drats" box that this group seems to be quite familiar with), and 6Miles is now selling the black and green variants on Amazon. If they sell well, I'm sure the Amazon vendors will bring in the other colors.

What I would really like to do is go a bit higher up the "food chain" with these vendors. Forget the foam colors - I'd absolutely love to see glow-in-the-dark heads for the Double-X darts.
