Weapon Review:
 
The Nerf® Expand-A-Blast is a terribly weak weapon. The Expand-A Blast is designed to have different parts of the gun expand outward so the gun increases in size. This was also one of the first weapons to feature the new farther flying ammo. The only thing new about the ammo is that Hasbro® reduced the size of the suction cup at the end of the dart. This decreases the air resistance, so the darts will fly farther.

The main problem with this weapon is the whole design. When you have the gun expand, the ammo falls out of the barrel. Also the weapon is incredibly weak for its rather large size.

This weapon just sucks and shouldn’t be bought.
