Aliens: Nerf releasing limited edition Pulse Blaster in October

Nerf has announced that they will be releasing a limited edition Nerf-ized version of the Pulse Blaster rifles seen in James Cameron’s sci-fi action horror classic Aliens (watch it HERE) to celebrate the film’s 35th anniversary. The company is now accepting pre-orders for the Nerf LMTD Aliens M41A Pulse Blaster, which is expected to start shipping out in October.

The Pulse Blaster can currently be ordered from HasbroPulse.com and GameStop.com, and is going for the price of $94.99 at both sites.

Here’s the product description:

“I WANNA INTRODUCE YOU TO A PERSONAL FRIEND OF MINE…”

Celebrate the 35th anniversary of the iconic Aliens film with the Nerf LMTD Aliens M41-A Pulse blaster, capturing authentic details inspired by the equipment of the film’s Colonial Marine Corps. Imagine yourself travelling to LV-426 to battle waves of Xenomorphs from this legendary film.

The Nerf LMTD Aliens M41-A Pulse blaster launches 2 different kinds of darts so you can adapt your battle strategy against the terrifying Xenomorphs. Fast-blast 10 Elite darts in a row from this fully motorized blaster or launch a Nerf Mega dart with pump-action blasting. Keep an eye on the dart counter to track how many darts are left in the clip, so you’ll know when to reload. Pull the trigger to hear movie-inspired blaster sounds.

Includes removable 10-dart Elite clip, 10 Nerf Elite darts, and 3 Nerf Mega darts. Eyewear recommended (not included). Requires 4x 1.5v C alkaline batteries (not included).

Captures the look of the iconic M41-A Pulse Blaster, with Power Loader inspired design and dual-blasting action. Features an electronic dart counter and movie-accurate blasting sounds. Measures over two feet long (28 inches) and comes fully assembled in premium packaging, perfect for display. Select from fully-motorized fly-wheel Elite or pump-action Mega dart blasting.

Nerf doesn’t recommend that anyone under the age of 8 use this rifle, but I have a feeling that most people who’ll want to have it will be well beyond that age.
