NERF Strongarm Elite Blaster
We did take a look at a NERF shooter yesterday, but that did not really come with the kind of sustaining firepower as it holds only 3 darts in its ammo reserves. The thing is, the NERF Triad Elite has an advantage of an extremely long range – we’re talking about being able to shoot up to 75 feet here, people! Well, for those who want something meatier, then you can settle for the $16.99 NERF Strongarm Elite Blaster, which also comes with a shooting range of up to 75 feet, and it will be able to splatter your target (if you are a good shot) with all 6 darts in rapid succession if the situation calls for it.
Of course, the asking price is also higher than the Triad Elite, but that is to be expected when you get a higher level of performance in turn. You can more or less say that the NERF Strongarm Elite Blaster is in the Elite line, where all of the darts and the internal firing mechanisms have been specially configured to achieve the 75 feet range, which is more or less double what most regular NERF products out there are capable of. The tactical rail itself has also been moved to the gun body, making it the sidearm of choice when you want to dominate the office.
NERF Triad Elite 3-Dart Mini Blaster
When was the last time you had plenty of fun around the office with your colleagues, or at home in your own backyard with the kids? Surely getting a set of NERF guns to play with would help lighten up the seriousness of a particular situation, and it is great at building bridges in a safe and healthy manner. Well, assuming you are the type who feel it is best to take the enemy “out” before he or she is able to reach you, then the $9.99 NERF Triad Elite 3-Dart Mini Blaster would seem to be the ideal weapon of choice.
After all, the NERF Triad Elite 3-Dart Mini Blaster is capable of firing three shots at a range of 75 feet away. 75 feet! That’s really far, and it shoots three darts, not simultaneously, but one at a time, from that great a distance. The smart technology involved here will let the NERF Triad Elite 3-Dart Mini Blaster know just which barrels are loaded, hence directing air to those barrels only without you going through the motions of a misfire. Surely it is never too early to prepare for a summer that is filled with fun, right?
Horse Racing Game
Are you a gambling person, or one who likes to take your chances? If you have answered in the affirmative, have you ever made your way to the races before? Surely you would revel in the kind of excitement that a horse race entails, and even more so when you have placed your bets, looking through the binoculars to see your favorite steed ramp it up in the final furlong to finish in pole position. Well, instead of spending your weekend afternoons at the races, you might want to do so at home – while getting your horse racing kicks in. You can do so with the $75 Horse Racing Game, of course, while sharing the thrill of victory, the agony of defeat, and spirited moments among friends and family.
The handmade Horse Racing Game has been described as “easy to play but difficult to stop”, and I do not doubt this claim, especially when you consider how the aspiring jockey in you cannot think of anything better other than to throw some money down on whom you think is going to rally past the finish line first throughout the week. This time around, you can more or less say that things are in your own hands, where all you need to do is pick your steed, roll the dice, and ensure that your stallion gets the best results with each dice roll.
Marshmallow Bow
If you happen to believe that falling in love would require the oft unseen Cupid sending his arrow right into the heart of your beau, with you as the intended target. Of course, one would think that such an arrow would feel painful when it “pierces” your skin, so why not settle for something that not only does not hurt one bit, but it is delicious to boot? This is where the $24.99 Marshmallow Bow comes in, where you will be able to begin a love affair with marshmallows all over again.
The Marshmallow Bow will be able to carry 25 mini marshmallows that paves the path for rapid action shooting, where it is capable of launching the mini marshmallows up to 30 feet! For most folks, projectile marshmallows are not something that you will be able to see every day. I can imagine a new competition at the office where all of your colleagues are lined up in a row, with mouths wide open, while you attempt to fire marshmallow bits into their mouths from a distance. Of course, you will need to provide your own marshmallows, and make sure the Marshmallow Bow remains nice and clean from roaches whenever it is stored away after use.
Roulette Wheel IQ Cube
Have you managed to figure out just what kind of gamer are you? Some of us like to solve adventure-based puzzles such as Mario, the Legend of Zelda series, or perhaps a little bit of swashbuckling adventure on the side with Lara Croft in her Tomb Raider outings. For the more tame folks out there, there is always the classic Rubik’s Cube, but assuming you have mastered this puzzle for many years already and are out looking for a new adventure, here is the $79.90 Roulette Wheel IQ Cube that certainly looks as though it will cause you to crack your head permanently in solving it.
For starters, the Roulette Wheel IQ Cube sure as heck looks a whole lot more complicated than your regular Rubik’s Cube, where the former is positively child’s play. Each surface on the Roulette Wheel IQ Cube comes with a roulette, so the ultimate objective in solving it is not only to accomplish each surface’s color, but also the roulette color alongside its sequence number. Looking at it already makes my head spin, and I think I would like to pass, but if you want one, gadget mavens Brando will ship out its pre-orders at the end of this month.
Construct Your Own Vehicle
Did you have a basket of LEGO™ as a kid? A kid could play with LEGO or other construction toys for hours on end. Build houses, vehicles or whatever. But did you ever wish that someday you could have life sized houses or vehicles just like you designed? I did. Now days you have Minecraft and other video-based construction games which introduce different skills. But really, does building a virtual world stimulate the brain as much as building with your hands? I tend to believe not.

Swann Sky Duel helicopters bring the fight indoors
I know that most parents would want their little ones to head out to the great outdoors and play whenever the weather is just fantastic, especially during those summer months, instead of being cooped up at home in front of the computer or the TV. Well, sometimes the weather does not seem to be too co-operative, so some sort of indoor entertainment is required that does not involve seeing a display for prolonged periods of time. Confiscate the kids’ smartphones, tablets, and consoles, and bring out Swann’s latest Sky Duel helicopters for some indoor dueling fun – the safe way, of course.

Submarine Camcorder explores the depths on your behalf
So your neighbor thinks that he is the bomb with the latest waterproof camcorder from JVC? Well, you can invite him over to the riverside (make sure it is not one that is polluted to the extreme), and ask him to record whatever’s going on underwater. He will most probably look at you incredulously, wondering what kind of one upmanship game you’re playing with him, before you put him in his place with the $6,300 Submarine Camcorder.
Yes sir, the Submarine Camcorder certainly lives up to its name, being a remote operated submarine which is capable of sending live video to an iPad from 100′ underwater. It is perfect for those who want to view marine life or inspecting a boat below the waterline, without having to get wet themselves. The sub itself will be tethered to its receiver on deck with a 100′ video cable, and communications are done via the receiver over a Wi-Fi connection, and you will control it with an app that has been installed onto your iPad or notebook remotely. The virtual dashboard will comprise of a joystick, camera controls, and will show off current depth, heading, battery level, and temperature data, all garnered from the sub’s integrated sensors. It boasts of a marine-grade, hydrodynamic ABS housing that delivers a watertight seal in order to protect the included HD video camera that does 1280 x 720 resolution footage.
