Well to be fair, Z got the blasters as hand-me-downs from his cousins. Having posted back and forth for half a year now, I'm sure he takes better care of his own personal blasters. Don't ya think 😉

From personal experience I can tell you there's a great sense of pride restoring an old beat-up blaster. When you put a little time, a few parts, some elbow grease, and maybe some paint on an old clunker, and get it working and looking great again, it's a really good feeling.

Just sayin', I'd definitely restore the RapidStrike. Even if it meant stripping it down and masking the heck out of the shell. Custom paint jobs look awesome on the RS. And it would be a great opportinuty to upgrade motors, flywheels, or pushers. Totally worth the time and energy.
