VIDEO - HALO assault rifle rip-off? Would make a great start!

[blewis17]

Look at this guy's YouTube video of this Toy-R-Us gun. Tell me what you think!

We did a few of those for some friends last summer. They retail for about 13.00 at TRU and K-mart (yes, they're still open :lol)
They are a undersized but it really passes for the real deal once you fill the screw holes and repaint it.

Any of these available in the UK?

i'm totally going to see if the toys r us or kmart around me have this. can't beat it for $15. i already have 2 full size ARs, but like i said for $15 with electronics already in it, it's decent for worry free trooping

OK, I JUST found one of these in Toys 'R' Us in the UK (only one on the shelf and no ticket!). Retails for £12.99 here.

So..... other than filling screw holes and repainting, what else needs done to it? Anyone got good pics of the Halo gun - not sure what colours it should be either.

Pretty nice gun this. Just finished painting it up. The electronics still work too. thumbsup

Original gun (now available in the UK at Toys 'R' Us):

Barrel sliced off and replaced, screw holes filled, sanded and repainted:

Not to hijack, but some of the Nerf gun mods Ive seen have completely blown me away.

Check this out -

Im pretty sure Nerf has heard of all the mods being created with their guns, and they're probably designing many of them unnofficially for the grownup mod market.

Aside from being a knockoff of the halo AR, it looks like they took the front of the AR and attached the rear of an SMG to it..

I've looked at these a few times and wondered if there was a mod kit or a thread on the RPF about it. :lol Anyone have any good ref pics or tips to mod one? For $15 I should pick one up to paint it,etc. Any help'd be appreciated.

 

[Kylash]

ive seen these at kmart too, about $12.
