The Mad Hornet is a Nerf blaster that was released in 1997 under the Max Force series.
It comes packaged with six Micro Darts.
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 uses air pressure and is pumped with the pump at the front of the blaster. There is a space at the front of the blaster for a hand to rest. It has a six-dart rotating turret.
History
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]
Later in 1997, it was re-released under the Max Force 2112 line.
