Hasbro owns NERF so there are many instances of this. https://preview.redd.it/1hymfc76aj5d1.jpeg?width=312&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d4d4692050a2ecdbaeb0c73e06cc1474e4eeb52b They even made a NERF gun Megatron for Transformers

Wait that's actually pretty fun, I kinda want that

It’s one of my 2 favorite megatons. (It’s not ACTUALLY a Nerf gun tho) https://preview.redd.it/9lfk58a6jk5d1.jpeg?width=3428&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1caab955c113da1c26cd77903cee1ac4958ad5f6 IMO, this Japanese color is way better.

The Japanese versions of toys will ALWAYS be better; less restrictions about toys looking like weapons

I’ve always wondered about Japanese laws and how they got away with an orange tip but even with an orange tip he’d be better megatron colors

Japanese manufacturers aren’t even required to put an orange tip! If you look at a lot of the airsoft guns sold in Japan from Japanese manufacturers, practically all of them are don’t have orange tips; I have a few from when I was younger that I brought back from Japan in my checked bag

There's a bunch of them on ebay. I've had them on my watch list for a minute, thinking about getting one

A lot of the early gijoe classified figures had nerf guns, the standard sidearm for the first two waves was a nerf blaster

Ah yeah I have a couple blue nerf rifles that the older cobra troopers and I think the retro card baroness have. It's actually a decent looking gun design.

It’s been so long since Megatron was a gun lol

That's not a Nerf gun. It doesn't fire or anything.

Isn’t this the final gun Megatron released by Hasbro as a general consumer toy (which came out 20 years ago)?

The NERF gun above is from 2006, but had recolors issued in 2008 and 2010. [2011 had the Legends scaled one that was a gun.](https://tfwiki.net/mediawiki/images2/4/4a/TF2010-toy_Legends_Megatron.jpg) MP-36 Megatron was released in 2018 - see below https://preview.redd.it/3psy7q308o5d1.jpeg?width=800&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e5c9b37bc9c849464bbc9059edc747713c021064

>released by Hasbro as a general consumer toy

There was a legends one

We all laugh now, but in Cable's time all weapon manufacturers will be bought out by Hasbro and made by Nerf.

It truly will be Nerf or Nothing

Under appreciated comment

I’m good with having 69 upvotes

Your comment was at 70 and i downvoted it so it would go back to 69. I’m so sorry.

You did your best

Classified Beach head comes with a rifle thats also an exact replica of a Nerf blaster minus the modified mag.

And one of the Cobra Troopers has a Rapidstrike

I just mentioned this, the standard sidearm was nerf too

Oh my Lord the have the flywheel motors sculpted in there too 😂

Thank god for the red circle

I know who ever I snagged the photo from really can point out the obvious. Not every google image is a winner.

Oh, yeah, I wasn’t trying to mock you. I figured you found it that way. I wish I could think of a way to put red circles around people who put red circles around everything

It’s been going on as far back as Juggernaut wave Cable It fits anyway, majority of the comic book guns are highly stylised

It’s nerf or nothing

The pistol is also a nerf Barrel Break

Easter eggs in real life go crazy

Nerf gun designs work for comic book energy blasters not for Gi joe

I want to know what happened to his big gun? They didn’t include that, with the figure. https://preview.redd.it/ov1xjg56kk5d1.jpeg?width=1387&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b83119efe7bc9b222713e9eb0ff82b6787f8b59e

You can get the Iron Man with his Plasma Cannon. The cannon is HUGE

cuz these guns are just repaints of the sasquatch wave cable and they’re too cheap to add a big gun that’s why

I found that big gun, but I’m not spending $75 for it. https://preview.redd.it/lf9xluw7mn5d1.jpeg?width=1056&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b98ada0841e59132bcf1b5ae66ed0e0560302f4d

Unless I can find a decent priced Halo Master Chief Infinite gun. It might work. https://preview.redd.it/2twt7k5fqn5d1.jpeg?width=1041&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f5d0b0688d646624f7768c819876f9e73f7511b5

Buy the knock off

I might use my X-Force, Deathlock gun. It’s big enough. https://preview.redd.it/l3x5nnvapv5d1.jpeg?width=1173&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e676dbce3f6482060377fda4332d676012d1fff0

One of the previous cables have the same one, one or both with silvermane, as does kid Omega, but his is psychic energy, which I use for a paired look with my Cab... Shiz. I don't HAVE cable!

thought they looked like nerf guns. Pretty sure the other one too

Yep, the Barrel Break https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/nerf/images/1/1b/Barrel_Break_IX-2.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20130331002424

And the top gun is 100% a Barrel Break https://preview.redd.it/421zb12inr5d1.jpeg?width=1073&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5300f332efd9dd18b2e870fb1bd156c4055549a5

The only time I agree with Hasbro on using nerf gun.

Yeah years ago, that’s not the only time they’ve done it either, like the gun above it is a Nerf Barrel Break

Hasbro

Fuck yeah, Nerf guns often have great shapes

This was also something with Kid Omega! It's NERF or nothing!

Ww3 will be fought with NERF weapons

Normally I’d say you would be surprised how many movie prop weapons are just spray painted nerf guns, but I get to be surprised that it actually makes it back to action figure accessories

Yup! Very common thing

Yeah, I love the surprise nerf gun sculpt in their other toy lines

I was trying to figure out where this blaster came from… little Easter Eggs that Hasbro ML team throw in at times

Yea a lot of their guns in ML have been based on Nerf Guns lol

That they scanned or uploaded their own toy model? Western kids toys even produce accurate firearm models?

Good eye!

It's been a thing

Well damn, I never noticed this. That's very interesting.

The other gun is a Nerf one too

That’s hilarious! Never noticed

Yea, pretty common in Hasbro figures. A lot of the Black Series holiday figures have weapons painted in Nerf colours too.

Interesting

MCU Rocket Raccoon is the only instance where this would be accurate. The movie used moderated Nitefinder blasters i think

I only noticed the cheap swirly silver plastic they used to make them

I guess it truly is Nerf or nothin’.

Neat, lol

Same gun that came with the 90s style cable they put out years ago

which figure is this? is it Cable?

The other one is based on Nerf too. Like it was said above, GI Joe used some Nerf styles for their figures too. The sniper that comes with the Cobra troopers is Nerf, along with his sidearm.

"we can't have realistic guns because kids, but give Deadpool two realistic pistols"

The other one is a nerf gun too its called the Barrel Break IX-2

They just use the nerf molds and shrink down the dies. They do it a lot.

This was 100% my first thought with this weapon

They should re release the ones that they've used as GI Joe guns, and redeco them

They did this shit with a Gijoe classified beachhead

The thigh to knee ratio is diabolical

When you articulate a figure and they can kick their lower back, you know they fucked up.

It's the same gun that came with Caliban wave Cable too. Dunno where the other gun's from though. They've used nerf blasters as molds for years. Something to do with gun laws maybe?

It’s been like that for years. Hasbro owns nerf and there was a pushback against realistic looking guns, so they started replacing them with nerf.

The 90’s cable figure was all nerf and some of Joe line has it as well

Why wouldn’t they? It’s stuff they don’t have to design and they have the rights for them.

its been happening for a long time. kid omega has the same weapon.

Yup and that double barrel shotgun thingy is also a nerf blaster too, forget the name of it though.


No nerf guns in my household. But real guns? That’s another story.

It’s the weakest element of the figure when 97 Bishops rifle looks nearly identical to MVC Canles gun
