So as per the last post you can tell I have one Nerf gun missing from my collection that I particularly want. As far as non Nerf products the Tek Recon has really got me interested. I first heard of this product from urbantaggers.blogspot.com and followed their way to funding through the kick starter website. Apart from the corny sounding tag line 'real life videogame' these look awesome.
According to the official website of the Tek Recon (http://www.tekrecon.com/) the product feature real triggers and recoil action and can fire the NRG rounds (which appear to be some sort of rubber band ring thing) up to 22m (75 feet).
These blasters look the business with the green and black and the recoil effect has me intrigued. I also like the idea of the firing type selector. I am not such a huge fan of the app that goes with this product but of course would try it out if I had the blaster. Check out the commercial here.
So now comes the tricky part sourcing one in New Zealand. At the time of writing the blaster is only available in USA and Canada. I have contacted the sales team for Tek Recon to discuss the potential of having one shipped to New Zealand so far without any success.
E bay has a few for sale at around the $140NZ ($114.58) with postage which is more combined than I spent on a Centurion, Rapidstrike and Strongarm. It seems like Christmas may not be the best time to realise this dream so maybe it should be my New Years resolution.
