Star Wars Rebel Alliance Bowcaster - Review!

More crossbows!

The Star Wars Rebel Alliance Bowcaster is another spring powered direct plunger blaster. It is also loaded manually one foam dart at a time, and primed by pulling back the "bolt" handle, then just pull the trigger to fire a shot.

The blaster is packaged with 4 x foam darts. Although they are similar to Nerf foam darts, its not fully compatible with those ammo due to differences in internal dart construction.

Average range is around 20-25ft.

Once again, the bow arms are just for decoration, they are non-functional too. :)

    1. wanna-be,

      The plunger tube is positioned further back and lower in the casing, there is a tube which links it to the barrel.
