The SuperMAXX 250 is a Nerf blaster that was released in 1998 under the SuperMAXX series.

It comes packaged with four Micro Darts.

Details

The SuperMAXX 250 features the infamous "prong" barrels, on which the darts must be slid onto; this style of barrel was first seen on various Rip Rockets series blasters. It is one of the few blasters in the SuperMAXX series not to be powered using an air pressure system; instead, this blaster is spring-powered. The 250 features a blue, green and orange color scheme. The blaster also features a small iron sight on the top of the priming handle, and a guide on the front of the blaster.

Two known versions exist of this blaster; the shotgun-trigger model, where the trigger is a simple, thin piece, and the regular-trigger model, where the trigger is a typical trigger seen on most blasters of the time. The shotgun-trigger model seems to be more common.

History

It is essentially an upgraded version of the 1994 Hyper Rip Rockets Rocketstorm that gave the blaster a trigger and an automatically rotating turret.

It was succeeded by its nearly identical brother, the SuperMAXX 350. This version was little more than a cosmetic change, as performance was relatively the same.

Sometime after initial release, the "SuperMAXX" portion of its title was dropped on some boxes, giving the blaster the new title of 250 Dart Blaster; likewise, the packaging for this re-release had no mention of the SuperMAXX series and instead had a similar packaging style to the Nerf Action series.

This blaster was succeeded in 2002 by the final model to use the "prong" barrels, the Air Tech 1000.

Reloading and firing

To reload the SuperMAXX 250, place up to four darts in the blaster's turret. Pull back the slide to prime the blaster.

To fire, pull the trigger.
