Amazon.com Review
The Nerf N-Strike Vulcan EBF-25 gives you the auto-blasting advantage when you're at foam-filled war with your friends and enemies. Children and adults ages 6 and up will love the EBF-25, the largest full auto blaster that Nerf makes. It lets you shoot 25 sonic micro darts at up to 3 darts per second for an offensive assault.  | What We Think
Fun Factor: 
Durability: 
(what this means)
The Good: Machine gun-style Nerf gun fires multiple shots per second
The Bad: The included 25 darts run out fast; gun is a bit too heavy for running around with
In a Nutshell: A great addition to any Nerf artillery, the Vulcan EVF-25 provides an advantage thanks to the sheer force of shooting 25 darts in ten seconds | At a Glance Ages: 6 and up
Requires: 6 D batteries

Full Auto Design Gives You a Quick-Firing Advantage
The first thing we noticed when we took the EBF-25 out of the box was how substantial it was. The gun itself was large, brightly colored in yellow and orange, and heavy enough for it to be a burden for quick missions; accessories included a tripod, ammobox, and ammobelt. The instruction booklet did a good job of describing the assembly process, which took about ten minutes. There is a handle that allows you to easily carry the gun around, but we would have appreciated a strap even more. The darts are held inside an ammobox in a 25-shot belt, which is fed through the gun. You'll feel like Rambo when you carry the gun, or sit it on its tripod for taking out enemies by the bucketload. After we'd installed the required six D batteries (not included), we pulled the trigger to see the gun work methodically through our belt of darts. It took only 10 seconds to blast through the included 25 darts, flinging them thirty feet across the room. We wished there were more darts included in the box since it seemed a bit silly that we needed to spend a few minutes to pick up the ammo, and then reload them onto the belt, after shooting for only about ten seconds. A refill pack can be purchased separately, which, we think, would be a wise investment if you want to effectively beat your enemies. The gun also has a single-shot mode that lets you shoot with extra precision. Rather than battery powered, you have to pull back on a spring-loaded lever, and then use the trigger release lever to shoot the dart. In our experience, you can achieve a little bit more distance this way than with the auto-fire mode. Tactical Rail System Allows for Fun Additions
The Vulcan EBF-25 features the Nerf Tactical Rail System, allowing it to use most N-Strike accessories, such as the night vision Tactical light accessory for night-time missions. For those interested in Nerf-fights, the Vulcan EBF-25 should be in everyone's artillery; the rapid-fire design gives players the advantage when engaging the enemy, and is ideal when it can be used on the back of a moving vehicle, or a stationary setting.

 Fun Idea, but Junk November 19, 2008
The Vulcan EBF-25 looks like it would be a blast for kids to play with, but unfortunately the toy is "JUNK" Quality.
I bought it for my son for his 8th birthday. He literally played with it for 2 hours. He went through about 6 reloads (it was a bit time consuming finding all the dispensed rounds and reloading the belt).
One of the first problems that he had with it was that the belt would not always advance after firing. I tried it and found that if I "gently" pulled on the belt, it would help it to advance to the next round. He tried it, pulled just a little too hard (nothing dramatic - just a bit harder than "gentle"), and that was it, it's broke!!!
Something internal broke or stripped. Now the gun just makes a horrible noise when trying to fire and it won't advance the belt at all. It won't even manually fire single shot rounds now.
I gave it to him at about 5:30, and between 7:00 - 7:30, it was done!
Conceptionally, it's a fun toy. But man, if it's made for young boys to play with, it needs to be tough enough for a scrawny kid to play with! For $35+, it needs to last a bit longer than a couple of hours.
 Time to Rock & Roll !! November 11, 2008
What an awesome toy !!
I bought one for my 6 yr-old grandson and then had to buy another so we could lay down interlocking fields of fire off the front porch - the neighborhood is far more peaceful today !
The Vulcan is a little heavy for him, so we taught him how to aim and fire using the tripod. It tends to chew up batteries too quickly, but all in all, what a great weapon for a grandson -
Fun and awsome,but breakable. November 11, 2008
Ok so I got one and it was pretty cool,I did not shoot it alot at the time.A few days later I turn it on and start shooting it and the belt kept jamming,I look at it and it looked like it was catching on something.So I lift the belt and push the trigger and the piston jams,great.A warning, never lift belt while its feeding.A few weeks later I got another one and a freind of mine shot it and the same problem happend,but he did not lift the belt.It really is a good gun I wouldnt rate it 5 stars if it was not But I question how durable it is.I plan to get another one sometime.Sorry, I dont mean to complain.This gun is nice {despite the belt sometimes not working}it really is powerful.I think it works better on its tripod sitting in place like a battle station.It feeds the whole belt fast,so its best to get lots of refills {walmart is best for refills 7.99+tax}.I also think suction dart refills are good for it Oh,thats another thing the vulcan can use any micro dart.I havent used it for dart tag,but I think it would be good for that to.anyhow it really is a good nerf gun,just remember to take good care of it.

Our 10 year-old used his money, after saving for a period of time, for the Nerf Vulcan. The commercial did a perfect job hooking him, and from an adult viewpoint it certainly looked awesome.
We got the bulky box home, unpacked everything,and his expectations were shattered in less than two minutes. The ammo belt kept jamming. A call to the company got us a response of "this can and will happen." We carefully packed all components back in the box, returned to the store, and exchanged it as was suggested.
Take two yielded the same results. Back to the box store, this time for a refund. He's quite disappointed as he has a number of Nerf gun type products and was really looking forward to the fun factor others seem to get out of it.
We certainly envy those who state they've had no difficulties.
