The Nerf® Whiptail Scorpion
has a very creative design. The weapon is designed to look like a scorpion. The barrel of
the weapon is the tail of the scorpion. This means that as the trigger is pulled back to
fire the weapon, the tail curves upward to look like a scorpion ready to strike. The main
benefit of this is that it increases the maximum distance of the weapon. The faster the
trigger is pulled back, the farther the micro dart will fly forward. However, there is
one main disadvantage of this firing mechanism. The accuracy of this weapon is severely
reduced. The weapon tends to fire the ammo too high, and it usually overshoots its
intended target. In addition to this, the tail is flimsy. This makes it hard to load ammo
with one hand.
While it looks cool, the Whiptail Scorpion
isn't worth buying.
