The Nerf version Halo's Needler gun has been unsuccessful in the past. However, the latest version may live up to most of the promises. According to The Verge, Hasbro has created a Nerf LMTD Halo Needler which looks and functions more like the Covenant weapon. Although it won't fire homing rounds, the motorized blaster can shoot 10 darts per row from a rapid firing drum. When you grasp the handle, the needles will light up and dim as you fire foam rounds at your foes.
As you might expect, there's a Halo Infinite tie in. Hasbro promises to include a card inside the box that contains a code for Infinite content. Although the toymaker did not specify what you would get, it is likely that it will be linked to the Needler.
Six 1.5V AA batteries will be consumed by the blaster at once. The blaster has a matching stand and a light-up display mode to showcase your purchase.
If you wish to display real-world Halo gear, you will need to be patient. Amazon has the Nerf LMTD Halo Needler available for pre-order now for $100. However, it is not expected to ship until December 1, 2022. This could be the most powerful Halo blaster that you will ever find.
