[nerfturtle]

I was browsing through Ebay just recently, found I something called the "Van Helsing Crossbow Revolver", and Was suprised to see it was a nerf gun. It had a picture of it cocked, and the distance between the handle not cocked and cocked didn't look so diminutive, maybe NF sized.
I know it's bad karma (not really, but you know what I mean) to post someone else's Ebay auction, so I'm not going to. I was just wondering if anybody has ever heard of this gun.
I've checked Orange's page, but as far as I can tell, it's not there.

Please don't post ANY auctions that are on ebay unless they are your own! Anyone that was interested in bidding on this item will surely be pissed with you if they lose as a result of youopening your mouth! It is up to people to look for them on ebay themselves!

Although you say you didn't post the auction, by mentioning it, you actually did.

I was debating bidding on this. Although it may turn out to be just as much of a joke as the Transformer guns.
A marketing gimmick. Although it does have a rotating revolver like turret and we all know I have been having some luck with those lately.

I was thinking of going for it as well for my collection, but thanks to this guy, I may not after all, hence my harsh reaction.

[nerfturtle]

Shit, for some reason I thought I was one og the only people who had seen this, I have no idea why.
I realise now, in my stupidity, that I never needed to say it was from Ebay. Too late now, I'll keep my mouth shut from now on.

Yep some people have to learn the hard way when it come to posting e-bay bids. I leaned that from being out bid on a lot i realy wanted. Any way there goes my chance of winning that gun

I checked out the auction and the gun looks interesting. If FA_24 modified we could rename it the "Hell Singer".

Has he modded it? Have you seen the internals? See if you can get a peek, and compare the plunger to that of some well-known Nerf gun - like the Nite Finder or Crossbow.

EDIT -- Random fact, I bought a 2K from this seller. It had some weird thing written on the side, but it worked perfectly.

I believe he said it is more similar to a NF, but I cant remeber right now, and i wouldnt take my word for it right now . Ill see what I can find out from him tomarrow.

I would have looked into it until Moneybags badger jumped all over it.
I hope you win it Badgey!

[angrscottishkid]

The only place I've ever seen this was TRU, im not sure if they still have them.

This is only the second time I ever saw this gun on ebay and I lost the last time. Not missing it this time. If it can be safely taken apart without ruining the collector's quality of the gun, I will get internal pics for everyone.

Thanks for the wishes Forsaken!

Now that the auction is over, I have to say two things.

Dart, you annoy me sometimes. You are, in my opinion, the current post whore. You posted 12 times yesterday and most of it was pretty useless, hence the post whore comment. Most of your comments that I have bothered to read are just you reiterating what someone else said, like you did here. You are one of the many types of people that irk me. Your grammatical skills also get on my nerves. Did you even bother to read the Code of Conduct? You need a cat like this one (plus it gives me an excuse to use this picture):



My second comment is directed towards nerfturtle and anyone else that posts an auction that they see on ebay that is not their own, whether by accident or on purpose.

I just spent alot more money than I wanted on that gun, partly because someone kept trying to outbid me in the last few minutes. I know that in the end, it is my fault that I am paying $61 for the fuckin' gun, but if you hadn't announced to the world about the auction and left it up to everyone to find it for themselves, I may not have had to go so high for a very hard to find piece for my collection. In fact, this is the third time that this has happened to me because of someone here at NH opening their big mouths and blowing up my spot. To make matters even worse, it is the same person that I have gotten into a bidding war over an item that was revealed on NH by some idiot! This guy isn't a member as far as I know. Probably just a troll, but the point is that this whole situation could have been avoided.

The next person that does this to those of us that use ebay as a source for our guns and rare collector's pieces will get torn up by me so bad, they will wish that they never knew ebay existed!

By the way, to end on a lighter note, this was my state of mind sunday night:



I usually hate it when people use pictures like these in posts, but Maryann found them and they are funny as hell. I love her!

[Ccapogreca]

Well my friend has his, but its taken apart, and he doesnt know how to put it together . I'm positive he would sell it. Just let me know, and I'll tell him your offer(s).
