The NERF MA40 is a lightweight, semi-automatic blaster that includes a 10-dart clip and 10 HALO-themed Elite darts. WARNING: Do not aim at eyes or face.

The Nerf LMTD Halo Needler blaster captures the look of the blaster from the Halo video game franchise! Imagine yourself as one of the Banished or Covenant and get ready to battle the UNSC! This Nerf dart blaster recreates the blaster's distinctive design with flexible needles that light up when you grip the handle! Fire the darts and watch the needles go dark to simulate how they launch from the blaster in the game. Other light-up accents add to the exciting visual presentation. This fully motorized blaster unleashes 10 darts in a row from the rotating, 10-dart drum. Includes 10 Nerf Elite foam darts. Switch to display mode to illuminate the blaster and showcase it on the included stand. Includes a game card with in-game content in the Halo Infinite game.* Eyewear recommended (not included). Requires 6x AA 1.5v alkaline batteries (not included). As a prop, the MA-40 pretty much nails it, as much as a Nerf gun can. It's satisfyingly bulky for me (5'10 and not slender), it has the profile I remember from my days playing HALO on my original Xbox, but somewhat modernized and chunkier- probably redesigned for the new game and new console generation. The color scheme is a little flashy, but what do you expect- it's a Nerf. Aside from those issues, admittedly minor, this is a very nice addition to any collection, especially if all you plan to do is hang it on the wall. For fans of HALO, Destiny, or science fiction in general, it will be a must-have. Secondly: as far as licensed NERF blasters go? The toy is excellent in almost every aspect; showcasing a wonderfully recreated 1-to-1 scale replica of Halo Infinite's premier MA40 assault rifle. First things first, this isn't a review of how the MA-40 shoots or functions, because I haven't shot it. I collect these as props, not for shooting (so I'm probably missing out on half the fun).Estimated ship date subject to change, items may ship earlier or later than anticipated without notice

When originally seeing the advertising, I wasn't 100% sure how well something like this could be executed, seeing how the previous attempt with BOOMco's MA5 had to greatly compromise the design to make it functional, resulting more of an oddball approximation rather than a proper recreation. Sorry, what?! This is the NERF gun of our dreams! NERF has pulled out all the stops with this special edition (fully-automatic) HALO Needler blaster. This is truly a must-have for any HALO or NERF fan – the absolute pinnacle of the blasting experience. We can’t tell you how excited we are (but perhaps you can tell?).Flip open the shield to access the drum for easy dart loading. Pull the trigger to unleash 10 darts in a row. Includes 10 Official Nerf Elite foam darts This dart-firing blaster is inspired by the iconic blaster from the Halo video game franchise and includes 10 Nerf Elite foam darts and a display stand The "ammo counter" is a nice touch and lends a bit of HALO verisimilitude, but, as others note, you can't aim through it. The base where it attaches to the rail seems a little flimsy as well, there are two very thin plastic pieces involved that look as if they might break with repeated mounting and dismounting. The same is true of the included scope riser, which is a shame, since one of the attractions was the ability to mount other aftermarket Nerf sights on it, such as the Modulus line of scopes. With one of these in place, the MA-40 becomes a dead ringer for a pulse rifle or scout rifle from the Destiny game series (and, of course, Destiny is another brainchild of Bungie, creators of HALO, so one shouldn't be surprised that the aesthetic is similar). But as flimsy as the mount base is, I've already had it pop off the rifle once when the scope accidentally bumped against a piece of furniture. The base seems to be rigged to come off, maybe as a defense against breaking, I can't guess; but I can't say I like the design. I would deduct a half point for that, but it's not allowed, so I'll just deduct a full point for the stiff magazine as well.
