Someone Made a Fully Functioning NERF Gun Out of LEGO Pieces

If you grew up in the '80s and '90s, there's a good chance you spent countless hours playing with LEGO and Nerf guns. Now, the YouTubers over at AstonishingStudios (via NerdApproved) have combined those two interests into one impressive result: a fully functioning replica of a Nerf Maverick REV-6 made completely out of LEGO bricks. Watch the video below, and ring in 2017 with a Harambe joke — because that's apparently still a thing.

As someone who has seen dozens of LEGO® brick guns online, I've been disappointed to find that most are nonfunctional models. That's why I decided to recreate my favorite blaster, the Nerf Maverick Rev-6, out of plastic bricks. Shameless plug: If a Hasbro employee sees this, I live fifteen minutes away from the HQ (astonishingstudios@gmail.com).
