Its priming handle is above the grip, which features a single tactical rail on top. Despite it being similar to the N-Strike Elite Disruptor and Strongarm, this blaster does not feature slam-fire.

History[]
The CycloneShock was leaked alongside seven other blasters on September 1, 2014 by Urban Taggers. Within a short period of time, a representative of Hasbro had the photo blocked from viewing on several sites.[3] Just days after the initial leak, photographs of a physical copy of the blaster surfaced.[4]
The CycloneShock was officially confirmed by Hasbro on November 12, 2014.[2]
A variant of the CycloneShock was released under the BattleCamo Series in 2019.
Two new color variants were released in 2022 as a Amazon exclusive. These versions come packaged with AccuStrike Mega Darts.
Color schemes[]
The CycloneShock has been released with the following color schemes:
- N-Strike Elite Mega (red, white, black, gray, and orange)
- Running change "economy" variant (red, white, black, gray, and orange, but sporting considerably fewer paint operations)
- BattleCamo Series (white, red, black, gray, and orange)
- "Hotrod" CycloneShock (white, red, yellow, gray and orange)
