Nerf N-Strike Modulus ECS-10
Nerf has been hitting the airwaves with yet another blaster. In what could be one of the longest toy names ever, Nerf presents the N-Strick Modulus ECS-10, a configurable (battery-powered) motorized blaster. Includes targeting scope, drop grip, and other options. Allows users to customize guns to their own needs. It’s not cheap, but it may be the most customizable Nerf gun ever. Early reviews at Amazon are strong, with a 4+ star rating. If you can’t find this one, it’s pretty similar to the CS-18 N-Strike.
Cost: $45-$50

Sheet Tamer
This As Seen on TV product is said to keep your sheets in place with a tight grip that won’t damage sheets. The product has only had a couple of airings ranging from April 2015 to June 2015. There are virtually no consumer reviews, the website was only registered in February of this year, and the trademark was only updated in June 2015. It’s likely being test marketed, which means that initial reviews may complain of slow shipping.
It looks like a simple and clever design that we hope makes it to full production.
Cost: $10 + $4.95 shipping
