Not to be confused with the newer Mega Dart.

A Mega Dart, also known as a Sucker Dart, is a type of Nerf dart that was released in 1993.

Details[]

Mega Darts are longer and slightly bigger in diameter than a typical Micro Dart.

There were two different types of Mega Darts; these had a similar appearance, making them hard to identify between.

The original "Type 1" version of the dart had a longer potential firing range, but was less durable. When blasters started to use compression rings, Nerf switched to a different model that looked similar. "Type 2" is similar in appearance and features more durable foam, though its potential firing range was much less in comparison.[citation needed]

History[]

First introduced in 1993, the Mega Dart was one of the first types of Nerf darts. It was modeled after the Sharpshooter Dart released a year prior. The majority of blasters in the 1990s and early 2000s featured use of Mega Darts.

The 1997 Electric Eel featured a Glow-In-The-Dark variant of the Mega Dart. Unlike modern Glow-In-The-Dark Darts, the Mega Dart featured phosphorescent paper wrapped around its body; the dart itself was not glow-in-the-dark and essentially a normal Mega Dart.

Type 1 Mega Darts were discontinued in July of 1997.[1] Type 2 was last used in 1998.

It was succeeded by 1999 Screamin' Mega Dart, which was used until 2007.

A modern Mega Dart was released in 2013 with the N-Strike Mega Centurion.
