OK, point taken Mojo, a toy IS a toy. But just sayin', color matters. I'm not showing up at a Nerf war with a pink blaster. I've heard the Rapid Red is an AWESOME blaster, but no way, no how, just ain't gonna do it.

You took me out of context, but my point is, color is an important factor. I don't like the white, orange, and gray motif. I'm sorry, it looks more "toy like". I'd rather show up with a pink blaster that works great, than a white and orange blaster that, um, kinda doesn't. But hey, that's just me :-)

I ordered my first BoomCo blaster last week. It should be here in a couple of days. I'll let you know what I think of it. As I've said before, I'm a newbie to Nerf after a 30 year hiatus.

But you're absolutely right, mods are most likely the real future. I don't think there's a blaster I've bought in 6 months that I haven't tinkered with, some slightly, others significantly. Then again, I'm an engineer, it's in my nature. Everything can be designed better, right ;-)
