The Heartbreaker bow comes with collectable darts bearing different colors and designs there’s a Rebelle app that allows girls to play collaboratively and encourages teamwork the bow’s size and ergonomics have been tweaked so that girls as young as 6 can activate it easily. ![]() Thanks to all that research, Rebelle differs from other Nerf lines in several key ways. Forget the original Crossbow from 1994, or even the fun-but-aging Big Bad Bow. Trying to encourage girls to buy existing Nerf toys or easing up the gendered overtones of those products was never really on the table: “This is an entirely ground-up effort.” “Just to be clear, we could have taken some of our Nerf blasters and just made them pink and put them in pink packages - but that’s not what we did,” Frascotti explained. What girls wanted, he said, was Nerf toys that boast both high performance and a design made especially for them. “I think if anything, we went into this without any stereotypes and instead talked to young girls, found out what they wanted, and then designed a line of products that addressed that opportunity.” We love it so much that we will be purchasing a few more to have on hand for the other kids, this way they can have there own little bow and dart dual.We even passed out our coupons to some friends and family….And the second reason I’m behind Nerf Rebelle: It doesn’t seem like a slapped-together effort on parent company Hasbro’s part, where they just said “Girls like pink and heart stuff, right? Slap some of that on the bow we already have.” Says Hasbro’s John Frascotti: The darts are very easy to locate once launched, plus we received even more darts just in case we lost any, that was a plus within its self. Its safe, darts are made of soft material, can be played indoors or outdoors to me. The Nerf Heart Breaker Bow set is a toy that can be played with anytime. I think my oldest daughter and cat had the most fun, every time they launched a dart the cat ran right after it. It was quite resistant, making you really work out in pulling the bow string. Another thing Lex mentioned was even though it looks like it might be easy to pull the bow string, it wasn’t. The color design and artwork is very pretty and crafted just right for the girls. Its all safe which is a plus to all kids and parents, no worries of hurting themselves or anyone else. The most important thing to me as a parent is its not harmful in anyway to the person who is playing with it nor the things you may launch at.
