I know you saw that yesterday I said no more of these threads and this is why. Nerf has agreed that this site will be where they first unveil new guns on the internet. That means no site online will see the official release of a nerf gun before us. And to show that they weren't fooling here it is:

Hi @%$#@!,
Hope your day is going well! I wanted to share with you an image and some official information about the N-Strike Alpha Trooper CS-18 blaster, which is in fact coming out this year.
· Available in August
· Exclusively at Target
· Features an 18 dart drum
· Rapid fire capability
I’ve attached an image of the N-Strike Alpha Trooper CS-18 blaster in package. Please feel free to share this information with the Nerf Haven community. We won’t be announcing this info on our Facebook or Twitter pages until tomorrow. Nerf will also release a second official image of the blaster tomorrow, at which point you (and all fans) are free to grab it from our pages if you’d like.
Please let me know if you need anything @%$#@!,, and thanks!

So there you have it. That's all I know. Feel free to speculate until your face turns blue and you pass out. But that's all the information I have and no I'm not going to send this poor person 250 rediculously technical questions. So don't ask me to.
Talio.
