Details

Like the N-Strike Spectre REV-5, the Spectre is a slide-action revolver-style blaster with a five-dart cylinder that advances on the prime. Pulling the slide back when it is already primed will not rotate the cylinder again. This prevents jams that result in the incomplete turn of the cylinder.

The Spectre is compatible with detachable shoulder stocks and barrel extensions. There is a priming indicator built into the shoulder stock attachment point. A tactical rail sits atop the blaster.

Left-handed use

This blaster was not designed for ambidextrous use. As such, some left-handed users may find its operation to be awkward. The Folding Stock that comes packaged with this blaster has a large hinge on the right hand side, which can get in the way while priming the blaster. However, this is remedied by simply unfolding or removing the stock. The revolving cylinder on this blaster flips out to the left, which may be awkward to reload if the user uses their right hand for reloading.

When the action can change by the minute, kids need a quick, powerful blaster that can change with it! Customize the 3-piece Spectre Rev-5 blaster for whatever the mission or battle requires. Attach the folding stock for steadier shots, and add the barrel extension to help the darts hit their target. Remove them both to create a compact blaster for stealth operations! Take aim and unleash 5 darts in a row from the rotating, 5-dart barrel, and send them flying up to 75 feet. The Nerf N-Strike Elite Spectre Rev-5 blaster has a tactical rail and comes with 5 authentic Nerf Elite darts designed for distance.

History

The N-Strike Elite Spectre REV-5 is an upgraded re-release of the 2010 N-Strike Spectre REV-5.

It was re-released twice: in 2020 under the N-Strike ICON Series, and in 2022 as an Elite 2.0 blaster.

Modification

Unlike the original Spectre, the N-Strike Elite Spectre uses a direct plunger system. It also has a different air restrictor system than its N-Strike counterpart, using a one-door system similar to that seen in the Swarmfire and Strongarm.
