The Nemesis MXVII-10K is a Nerf blaster that was released in August of 2017 under the RIVAL series. It requires six "D" batteries or a Rechargeable Battery Pack to be operated.
It comes packaged with a hopper, one hundred High-Impact Rounds, and instructions.
Details
The Nemesis MXVII-10K is a fully automatic blaster. It features two tactical rails: a long rail on top of the hopper and a smaller one below the muzzle. On either end of the top rail are integrated, flip-up sights. The end of the blaster can act as a shoulder stock.
Unlike previous blasters, the Nemesis uses a large removable hopper with an agitator that advances the rounds into its flywheels. The feeding mechanism will not operate when the hopper is removed.

Trivia
- The Nemesis MXVII-10K is named after Nemesis, the Greek goddess who enacts vengeance on those who succumb to hubris (arrogance before the gods).
- With its one hundred-round hopper, the Nemesis MXVII-10K has the third-highest ammunition capacity of any Nerf blaster in history, the second highest being the new Prometheus MXVIII-20K, with a capacity of two hundred rounds, and the highest being the N-Strike Elite Hail-Fire, which was advertised as having a 144-dart capacity and can hold up to 288 darts if used with sixteen eighteen dart clips held together by Flip Clips.
- However, since the Hail-Fire is fed through the use of multiple clips, the Nemesis holds the distinction of the second-highest ammo capacity among single-fed blasters, the first most again being the Prometheus MXVIII-20K.
- Along with that, it is also the second-highest-capacity RIVAL series blaster released by far.
- The Nemesis is compatible with the Hera MXVII-1200's battery tray, meaning that it can potentially take "C" batteries instead of "D" ones.
- It could be considered a successor to the Khaos MXVI-4000, since both feature full auto firing.
- The Nemesis is the first stock Nerf blaster to use a hopper system.
