This is a nice drop in price from this recent Front Page Deal when it was $10 more than today's price.

According to my searching this is the lowest price that it has been on Best Buy and 10 dollars cheaper than it was during Black Friday.

40-packs of ammo are also on sale for $3.99

my 5 year old would lose his mind if I got this for him. Hmm, $40 is still a lot for a 5 year old's toy.

Please don't use darts with this, it will add a whole new level to the stormtroopers miss their target jokes when you are loading your blaster with darts instead of rounds 😅

I want this but still can't justify the price. I need this to hit the $20 mark and I may be able to buy it without the wife couching or blueballing me.

I've heard mixed reviews on how accurate this gun is, though I guess that also matches the fact that Stormtroopers typically can't hit the broad side of a barn Smilie.

That said its a pretty cool costume prop, and from what I was reading they did a limited run of these and weren't printing more. I typically collect these branded versions when they go on clearance (such as the Mandalorian blasters that Gamestop had for 10 bucks.. but those also had a mask!) as they are never worth full MSRP.

I am not sure if this was included in their overall clearance, but I talked to a Best Buy manager last night who mentioned that they were clearancing their Rival Ammo and some of the guns as they needed to get rid of the Nerf displays from Black Friday/Christmas. I was able to pick up 400 rounds of ammo in store for 40 bucks through the clearance 40 packs, and there were still 20+ on the shelf. I'd recommend picking up at least one extra set of ammo if purchasing this gun as Rival ammo rolls pretty far!

Excited for my first frontpage deal, hope this info helps!

Essentially its the rival helios blaster. Great fun but bought the helios for 15 on sale last year. Paying extra for cosmetics

True, My 3 year old breaks the toys brought for 6 year old in one or the other way or atleast inserts small toys into big ones by making pin holes as big as needed... And the 6 year old cries...

If you have orders to not injure, then yes.

For $40 I figured this thing would be motorized.
Thank's OP, but I'll agree for a non-motorized gun this isn't quite hot.

Yeah they typically place a huge premium on the branded blasters so unfortunately no motors here. There is another YMMV deal on SD where some Targets have clearanced the Prometheus Rival mini-guns down as low as 60 bucks before the red card bonus.

I found 4x Prometheus at my local Target (marked as Limited stock on Brickseek) and picked up 2 that were still in sealed condition. Unfortunately that is also a huge YMMV as I think I found only one target locally that had them for that price, but if you keep an eye on post-holiday clearances that is the best time to pick up motorized guns (all of my Nemesis guns came from Toys R Us...).
