Chewbacca's Bowcaster

There have been several promotional blasters over the years. Few of them have any use beyond being a replica. They generally suffer from having bad ranges and poor usability. However, one of the few promotional blasters which has some use in the NIC is the Chewbacca's Bowcaster:


The Chewbacca Bowcaster is a single-shot, pullback blaster. It features a faux scope and a 4 dart holder on its's side. As a stock blaster, it's really bad, achieving ranges of 5-10'. Even with the air restrictor removed, it's lucky to hit 15'.

However, like the Vortex Tornado, the Bowcaster's worth its it's ability to accept replacement internals. It works well as a Nitefinder-esque rifle. For the moment, I plan to use the blaster for the awfuls round at my next war, after which I will look into a conversion.

      While it isn't officially Nerf, the Bowcaster was produced by Hasbro.
