SuperMAXX Ball Shooter

❌

The SuperMAXX Ball Shooter is a cancelled Nerf blaster that would have been released in 1998 under the SuperMAXX series. The blaster would have required three "C" batteries to be operated.

It would have come packaged with eight Ballistic Balls.

Details
The SuperMAXX Ball Shooter is a medium-sized blaster, judging from the only known photograph on the internet. It would have featured a similar handle to the SuperMAXX 250 and SuperMAXX 750. Because of this, it could have been possibly closer to their size.

It is a motorized ball blaster that featured a trigger that went through the back of the handle of the blaster. Balls would have been loaded through the back of the blaster.

It advertised a firing range of up to twenty-five feet (seven meters).

History
Its eventual fate was unknown. From what is known, it never surfaced outside of pictures. The blaster was cancelled for unknown reasons, although its concept would later be re-used by Larami the following year for the 1999 Ball Blaster, although without the electronic capabilities.

All the information known about the blaster comes from a photo of the blaster from the 1998 Larami toy catalog. Thankfully, the catalog also lists useful information such as would-be date of release, capacity, and size that would have been otherwise difficult to find.

Reloading and firing
To reload the SuperMAXX Ball Shooter, one would have had to insert the Ballistic Balls into the back of the blaster. An opening at the top of the blaster would have been the area where the balls would have fit. The mechanics would have needed to be turned on.

Pulling the trigger would have fired the ball.

Trivia

 * This would have been the first motorized ball blaster, the title of which would later go to the Power Nerf series Ballzooka MP150.
 * The packaging seen at the bottom of the original picture of the blaster differs somewhat than the description. The blaster is listed as the SuperMAXX Ball Blaster on the packaging, and it is stated that it comes with only six Ballistic Balls, rather than the eight balls seen in the description.
