NERF RETRO: THE TRIPLE TORCH

Firing video to follow, but in the meantime take a look at the pics of this older blaster from the “Mega Blitz” line from the 90s:

Like all stock blasters, this thing only went 25-30′, but the kicker to it was that the barrel was made in such a way it could fire THREE different types of ammo: micros, whistlers, AND arrows! The arrows could only be used with the Triple Torch, and no other arrows would work on the Triple Torch either. But the sheer versatility of the blaster makes it a win in my book.
