There is no real design direction, the painting technique is flawed, the logos are all visible (I sand all mine off) & the gears are too polished. Never mind the fact that they're just randomly hanging off of the gun with no real purpose. And what's the function of that wire thingy up at the top? Plus the gun doesn't fire anymore?! Sorry, but this is garbage, utter fail. Here's a tip, Vinyl paint, dry brushing, as much physical body mods as you can do while retaining the functionality of the gun (there's nothing like a prop that fires), lighting (LED, EL wire, fiber optics) & finally, it's hard to ask the rhetorical question "can you believe this is a nerf gun made of plastic" when the giant NERF logo is on the side of the gun.
