The Magnus is a slide-action blaster with an internal clip that holds up to three darts at a time. This clip loads from a loading port atop the blaster. A jam release button on the left side of the blaster will clear jams; a pen or paper clip is required to reliably engage the release function.
A small tactical rail is located under the muzzle. The blaster also has a strap point built into the handle.
It advertises a firing range of up to eighty-five feet (twenty-six meters).

History[]
The Magnus was first discovered in September of 2013. In some countries, the Magnus was given soft releases between November to December of 2013.
In Singapore, it was a Toys "R" Us exclusive until summer of 2014.
It was re-released within its release year under the Zombie Strike Z.E.D. Squad sub-series, available in the Magnus 2 Pack.
Color schemes[]
The Magnus has been released with the following color schemes:
- N-Strike Mega (red, white, black, gray, and orange)
- Sonic ICE (clear blue, white, black, gray, and orange)
Value packs[]
The Walmart-exclusive Magnus Bonus Pack comes with the blaster itself and twelve Mega Darts.
Trivia[]
- A chambered dart may fall out of the Magnus if the blaster is swung about by its grip with sufficient force.
- Rather than using the intended loading port and the internal clip, the Magnus can be used as a single-shot muzzle-loaded blaster, by priming it and front-loading a dart through the blaster's muzzle.
- It is comparable to the Kronos XVIII-500, due to its similar internal clip.
