TeamNC review (1997 era)
The Nerf Laser Fang is the "upgrade" to the Nerf Eagle Eye. The weapon improves on most aspects of the Eagle Eye. First, the gun has a better casing for the light bulb, so the user doesn't stand out as much in a dark room. Second, the range of the weapon is improved greatly over the Eagle Eye. Third, the accuracy of the weapon improved slightly. Fourth, the Laser Fang incorporates a shield on the handle of the weapon.The Laser Fang does, however, have a few problems. First, Hasbro failed to improve the rate of fire. In fact, by having to pull the barrel out of the weapon, the rate of fire becomes poorer. Second, the shield on the hand of the weapons tends to fall off. This becomes very annoying in a Nerf war.
The Nerf Laser Fang is a good weapon. For those who liked the Eagle Eye, it's definitely worth buying.
