The NERF PRO GELFIRE LEGION BLASTER has been unveiled as a smaller option for users to pick up that's perfect for players aged 14 and up to use against one another in outdoor environments.

The blaster comes with 5,000 dehydrated rounds that, after being rehydrated and loaded, can be fired to explode on contact. The blaster has a high-performance design that utilizes a 130-round hopper to quickly disperse rounds when playing against an opponent.

The NERF PRO GELFIRE LEGION BLASTER is priced at $20 and features a trigger lock to ensure the toy isn't accidentally fired when not in use. The toy blaster also comes with certified protective eyewear to further enhance safety. The toy is expected to be available at many retailers this month.
