Details

The Mad Hornet is an air-powered blaster. It slightly resembles a hornet to keep in the theme with the Max Force blasters.

It was Nerf's first air-powered blaster to feature a firing trigger.

It was initially planned for a 1996 release, appearing in 1996 catalogs. However, it was delayed until a 1997 release because of a safety issue with the Sting Meter on the blaster, which could cause injuries if it came in contact with soft or sensitive body parts such as eyes. [1]
