Nerf Sonic Series info

There is now a new Nerf series (similar to the Clear Series) called the Nerf Sonic Series. So far, all I really know is that they are just clear blasters with a green tint. A few photos;

There were articles on this on Nerf Intelligence Corporation, Urban Taggers, Basicnerf, and Nerf or Nothing.

Klenix Kil said this on Nerf SG after getting his hands on a "Sonic" Maverick;

"I managed to get my hands on the one and only green maverick my supplier had. I was made to pay like 20% more than a retail yellow maverick but my curiosity overcame all prudence. Here is a little description:
So basically what you have is a clear/transparent neon green Mav with orange parts like the regular clear ones. Piggy appropriately described the green as "the cheap $1 water gun plastic green" because that is exactly what it looks like.
It came with 6 sucker darts and had 'Sonic Series' written on the box. My supplier has confirmed that the factories are about to churn out a whole series of green stuff like the recon and raider (again) so i guess we can all 'look forward' to another new/old line of blasters to spend our retirement fund on."

I think that Urban Taggers proved a good point by saying that most of the leaked photos of new blasters are from Hasbro employees that sneak out a gun then take a picture of it. One other thing, the series is a TRU exclusive (notice the "Only at Toys R Us" symbol on the Maverick REV-6) (below).

Notice the "Only at Toys R Us" symbol

That obviously means that the Sonic Series line is a Toys R Us exclusive. Most other N-Strike blasters will probably be in the line too, and I'm not sure about the release date, but the Sonic blasters will probably cost a good 10-20% more than regular guns. Other than that, there isn't much else I know about them. Now, I'm off to Toys R Us...
