We love the Vulcan/Havok and have several versions. We're also thinking about putting an afterburner on one and when we're really brave we have a clear Vulcan that we hope to dye the shell with a blue tint to make it the only Sonic Ice Vulcan! 😎 Looking forward to seeing yours once its modded! 😉👍

Nice! I had this! I bought it for my son (me) for Christmas. It was great fun setting up and playing with but it felt like it was just almost there. It made me hate battery powered blasters. After blazing through a half dozen battery changes and it sat in a nerf bin. I cleaned out his room a couple of years later and it was in the bin with batteries that leaked out. It was fun that winter but the night finders were our primary blasters - we still have one! I just recently got rid of the tripod and belt. Now I want to see what you do to one of these.

Agree with everything you’re saying about battery powered Nerf (funny though that my favourite is flywheelers). It’s just a little below the fun threshold. Usually they don’t live up to the power of springers. So your inexpensive sidearm is better than a big battery powered thing. Which is obvious to a kid and sucks. I’ve been switch all of my stock Nerf to 9v (6 batteries) and more recently because that gets expensive, 9v rechargeable packs. 9v takes performance to 100 FPS and doesn’t require a rewire. A good middle ground for mass conversion haha. For this one I’m going to do two. The first will be a simple one, up the power a little, and improve the spring and air seals a little, try and increase fire rate a bit and get to 100 FPS. :)

@@maritimefoam I have to say I was not a fan of battery power UNTIL the Nemesis with pack and the Perses. I do not yet own the Prometheus but if I ever get some throw away money… The rechargeable power of your modding is awesome. The expense of single use batteries adds up. I don’t mod so I wish Nerf would give us more off-the-shelf rechargeable systems like the Perses. The general appeal of Nerf, for me, especially that of Rival, is unlike gel or airsoft or paintball, nothing more than safety glasses are required. Indoor play is safe and outdoor yard play is fun, too. Ammo infinitely reusable - pick up enemy rounds! It fills an incredibly fun space where the seriousness, organization required, and effort in gearing up simply can’t exist. I appreciate your channel, bro.

Hello there, I am extremely fortunate and own TWO Havok Fires which I thrifted within a month of each other. Both were near immaculate just some scuffs on the bottom. It turned out I also got one long barrel and one short barrel variant too (the muzzles are slightly different). Well done getting yours!
