Revision as of 23:09, 27 October 2019

Not to be confused with Suction Darts or Buzz Bee Micro Darts.

A Micro Dart is a type of Nerf dart that was released in 2003 under the N-Strike series.

Details

The Micro Dart is a rather small dart and is used in many non-clip system blasters. The Micro Dart was one of the most common Nerf dart types during the years of its popularity. A basic Micro Dart features a suction cup head that will stick to most smooth surfaces, even when fired at long range.

The Micro Dart served as the basis for many other dart types, such as the Whistler Dart and Tagger Micro Dart.

Official description

History

With N-Strike blasters, it was commonly packaged with single-fire and revolver-type blasters. However, it was slowly phased out by the Whistler Dart, which had started to become the common dart type.

In 2012, it was replaced by the N-Strike Elite Elite Dart as the common dart type; in 2014, the Suction Dart was introduced and serves as a true successor to the Micro Dart.

In 2014, a variant of the Micro Dart was released under the Rebelle series in the Star Shot Set, known as the Collectible Suction Dart.

Despite the gradual decline of Micro Dart production, certain promotional blasters still feature Micro Darts. Micro Darts are also sold in N-Strike Elite packaging in some areas of the world.

Color schemes

The Micro Dart has been released with the following color schemes:

Refill sizes

Trivia

  • They are extremely hard to find in the United Kingdom, as most of the blasters that would have Micro Darts in the United States or other countries are replaced by Whistler Darts or Sonic Micro Darts in the United Kingdom.
  • Strangely, in the Nerf N-Strike video game, clip system blasters are depicted to fire Micro Darts, even though they don't have streamlined heads.
  • The back of the updated packaging of the thirty-six dart refill pack labels and advertises the Jolt EX-1 incorrectly as the "Jolt IX-3".[citation needed]
