Clear 18 round magazine?

My Last Dart has reported (via Lamlamomo at the HVZ forums) pictures of a new clear 18 round elite magazine. The pictures have since been taken down from the original source (Baidu) but have made their way onto the 'net.

What does this mean? Will the elite series be getting more color choices? Will these be for sale individually? Are we getting new colors of darts? Hopefully, all of the above.

New Barrel Break

Looks like there's a new version of the Barrel Break IX-2 up for pre-order on the Toys "R" Us website.
The blaster sports a new blue paint job, but neither the box nor the blaster mention the elite series (other than darts). There's also a sticker on the box art that indicates it's a Toys "R" Us exclusive. With the elite Alpha Trooper being confirmed as a Target exclusive, could this blaster along with the dart tag line be what Toys "R" Us is getting? Will Walmart have any exclusive blasters? Hopefully we'll find out soon. This blaster is set to release February 22, according to the site.  Maybe once people start getting their hands on them we can see if there's any improvement to range.
