Details
The Mediator Barrel is an air-powered blaster that can double as a barrel extension; unlike modern air-based blasters such as the ThunderBlast, it is powered like older air system blasters such as the Hornet AS-6. The top of the blaster houses the barrel and folds up against the top of the blaster for use. When the blaster is not being used as a barrel extension, the barrel can be lifted up and used as a grip.
Official description
Kids can upgrade their firepower when they attach the Modulus Mediator Barrel to the Modulus Mediator core (sold separately). The barrel converts to blaster that features pressurized 3-dart blasting. Flip the handle to go from barrel to blaster, pump to prime the blaster, then press the button to blast a triple-dart burst. Comes with 3 Modulus Elite darts. Customize for battle with the Mediator core, stock, and barrel (each sold separately) to create the Mediator XL. With the entire Modulus system, more than 1000 combinations are possible! (Blasters, upgrade kits, and accessories each sold separately).
Reloading and firing
To reload the Mediator Barrel, load up to three darts into the blaster’s muzzle. Pump the blaster six times for maximum range.
Press the button to fire three darts.
Trivia
- Technically, when it is being used as a standalone blaster with the grip deployed, it is slide-action rather than pump-action.
- The Mediator Barrel is the first proper air-powered blaster since the Magstrike AS-10; the 2016 Missile Launcher Stockis also air-powered, but does not use an air tank like the Mediator Barrel does.
- Despite being designed for the Mediator, it is sold separately, as is the Mediator Stock.
