Darts, drums and flywheels: the easiest way to start a blaster game with mixed ages.
Choose this if

- Pick this if you are planning a birthday party.
Skip it if
- Skip this if you want a big hopper and rapid fire.

What to check

Questions
Are foam blasters good for younger kids?
Foam is the default for young kids and mixed-age groups, because our guides call darts the lowest-impact option of the families we cover. The Commander RD-6, Shockwave RD-15 and Ultra Select list age 8+ from the maker. Supervise younger players and use eye protection in every game.
Do foam blasters need batteries?
Most of the Elite 2.0 models here do not: the Commander RD-6 is spring-powered, the Shockwave RD-15 is pump-action, and the Flipshots and Prospect QS-4 need no batteries. The Nerf Ultra Select is flywheel-driven and takes 6 C batteries, not included, with runtime not published.
How many darts does each blaster hold?
The Commander RD-6 has a 6-dart drum with 12 darts included, and the Shockwave RD-15 a 15-dart drum with 30 included. The Flip-8 has 8 barrels, the Flip-32 has 32, the Prospect QS-4 holds 4, and the Ultra Select takes two 10-dart clips. Included counts are not published for every model.
How far do foam darts go?
Published ranges are maker claims, not independent tests: up to 90 ft for the Commander RD-6 and Shockwave RD-15, and 120 ft for the Ultra Select, per Hasbro. Range is not published for the Flip-8, Flip-32 or Prospect QS-4. Your yard, darts and wind will change what you see.
