The N-Strike Modulus Battlescout ICS-10 is the latest and greatest N-Strike Modulus Battlescout ICS-10 offered by [Hasbro](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jammie-dodgers-and-nerf), and is unique in that it features a camera that is completely and easily removable.

This particular toy gun is not dependent on batteries, instead using a classic spring mechanism. This also gives you the added advantage of recording video footage that isn't ruined by the sound of a noisy fly wheel wreaking cacophonic havoc inside the toy gun. The camera is also an improvement over the N-Strike Elite Cam ECS-12 Blaster in that it offers a 720p HD resolution.

The N-Strike Modulus Battlescout ICS-10 stands to be an intelligent purchase for parents who are unwilling to dish out hundreds of dollars on a [GoPro](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hero-12-black) for their child are looking for a funner and more appropriate alternative.
