History[]
The Ricochet was first revealed at the 2013 New York Toy Fair, along with the entire 2014 Zombie Strike line.
Modification[]
Unlike other Vortex-style disc blasters, the Ricochet has a simple spring in it, rather than a torsion spring, which launches the disc linearly. Due to this, the discs do not have any spin put on them.
Trivia[]
- The Ricochet is comparable as a Vortex version of the Jolt EX-1, due to its size and purpose.
- The Ricochet is the only XLR Disc blaster to not put any spin on the disc while firing. Instead, hence its name, discs are meant to be ricochet off of surfaces.[citation needed]
