I didn’t know they had been going so long and made a sports line until I researched. I knew about the blasters and foam ammo.

Hi TVTA, NERF blasters are quite favoured by Star Wars cosplayers as they are a good base model to modify and paint to look like Sci-Fi styled blasters. They’re also relatively light-weight so don’t weigh you down when carrying them around a Comic Convention all day.
And the ’97 logo reminds me of a few T-shirts and sweatshirts I owned….anyone remember “Global Hypercolour” colour changing tops that reacted to body temperature?

Ho FT. Didn’t know about the NERF blasters being popular with SW cosplayers, but now you mention that it makes sense.
‘Global Hypercolour’ ? No. I remember the shell suits of all bright colours, matching top and bottoms. They were early 90s I think.

Cheers Airlandia. Yep. Out of the three I’d go for the ’97 one as it at least looks like it’s aiming at the bright colours it’s famous for.
