I don't expect anyone to know the answer, but if you look at the handle, you can actually see the outline of the N-Strike Elite logo, on a Zombie Strike blaster.

Yes, yes, I know the Elite Blazefire exists, but that was released a year later, and according to the Wiki, it isn't even announced. Hasbro needs some explaining to do.

My Theory: The Crossfire Bow was originally supposed to be an Elite blaster, but later, they changed it to Zombie Strike, somehow leaving the mould there.

Even Crazier Theory: This Elite Crossfire Bow is the Blazefire. Except in blue. That's why a year later, they made a Sonic Fire versi- Ah ok, that last part was a joke.

Anyways, this is probably the same reason the Sidestrike has the Elite logo on it, because they made an Elite version.
