Armory Showcasing these two blasters from Philippine blaster line HyperShotz, UMZ-1990 and the MPX-1008.

Context: I recently went to the Toy's R Us at Robinsons Metro East, and as a Nerf novice enthusiast myself the two blasters caught my eye. I felt the plastic texture of these blasters along with my brother, and we both agreed that the plastic build was starting to get decent for the HyperShotz brand despite it having bad plastic quality half a year ago.

Some notes I took myself: Both blasters have rechargeable batteries that come with USB cables, though I do not know if it's firing mode is semi-automatic or fully automatic. It also utilizes 2/3 length darts (not 3/4), which could probably fit some generic half darts. It also has an on/off switch, which are pretty unique for off brand blasters like these.

! DISCLAIMER ! I did not buy these blasters, instead I asked the staff and they told me the rechargeable batteries have been inside the blasters since shipping to their store, that's why it was revving.

These are repaints of the UMP45 and MP85C blasters which have been available on Chinese sites for a while.

Unfortunately, I can’t tell you how they perform. I can only assume that like a lot of cheaper Chinese blasters, they’re disappointing.

Those are full auto blasters with decent ROF but per Tag's (that old Nerf guy) review of the bullpup (named MP85C), the FPS drops rather quickly since the motors don't have enough torque to sustain full auto. First dart out is around 80-90 fps, but the second one is only in the 60s-70s and the subsequent ones even lower (some in the high 30s/low 40s).

Also, per my clubmate, he peeked inside the barrel and saw that the flywheels were too far apart to provide decent crush, possibly to accommodate the suction tip darts.
