Details[]
The Infinus is a fully-automatic flywheel-powered clip system blaster, similar to the RapidStrike CS-18. Unique to the Infinus, however, is a small chute atop the blaster, above the grip, that darts can be manually loaded through. This "Speed-load Technology" allows a dart to be fed through the back of the blaster and into a loaded clip or drum. This gives the blaster its name, as its theoretical capacity is "infinite" and not limited to what capacity clip it is equipped with. It is nearly impossible to jam the loading hole when using standard darts.[2]
The blaster features a light-up status indicator, that indicates whether the blaster is ready to fire, ready to be reloaded, is fully loaded, or if it has jammed.[1] Batteries are loaded into the blaster's integrated stock. A clip release button is located just in front of its acceleration trigger. It is also compatible with barrel extensions.
Two tactical rails sit atop the blaster in tandem. At the end of the forward rail is a small iron sight. There are also four strap points: two built into the shoulder stock and two built into the front of the blaster.
The Infinus features an integrated stock in the back that houses the batteries, two tactical rails, and four strap points. Its clip release button is located just in front of its acceleration trigger.

Blast into action with on-the-go dart loading for non-stop battling! The Nerf N-Strike Elite Infinus blaster features motorized Speed-Load Technology that automatically loads darts in the drum. The drum stays attached to the blaster, so battlers do not have to remove the drum to reload. They can load and fire darts without removing the drum, so they can keep battling as they’re reloading. The motorized Infinus blaster has a detachable 30-dart drum and comes with 30 Elite darts, giving kids plenty of firepower. The blaster is compatible with most other Nerf N-Strike Elite drums and clips (each sold separately). Crush opponents with a relentless barrage of darts from the Nerf N-Strike Elite Infinus blaster, which features Speed-Load Technology that automatically loads darts into the drum! |
History[]
The Infinus was originally leaked in the summer of 2017; prototypes of the blaster featured a fifty dart drum. Its name was originally unknown, until a distributor website unintentionally revealed it.[3] Official information was announced in January 23, 2018[1], confirming a new drum, a price point, and key features of the blaster. It was later shown off at the 2018 New York Toy Fair.
In Australia, it was initially exclusive to Big W.
Trivia[]
- The Infinus can potentially be used as a means of quickly loading spare clips, due to its partially-automated feeding process.
- The Infinus can feed BOOMco. Smart Stick Darts into its loaded clip. However, these loaded darts cannot be fired.
