I always thought that Nerf guns were made solely for cornering your brother and shooting him repeatedly without worry of permanent damage, expressing both your eternal vengeance and your eternal love for your brother at the same time. I recently learned that those are the thoughts of a child. David Carroll introduced me to the thoughts of an adult when I first saw his Facebook photo album of customized Nerf Mavericks, a series of handguns that David painted and/or modified, a beautiful expression of what adults with time and love and a little bit of money can do with their childhood memories.
Here are a couple of my favorite Nerf Mavericks. (Is my comic book geek showing?)
The Flash
The Green Lantern
The Iron Man
Guess what? You're in luck. After bugging David a couple of times, he uploaded all of the photos of his Nerf Mavericks to
imgur. There was a time when only the aristocratic few (David's Facebook friends) could access these beauties, but that time is over. Click
