Hyperdouraku did a hands-on review of the GunPoint FA-MAS F1 gas blowback (GBB) airsoft rifle. The FA-MAS is a French bullpup assault rifle adopted by the French Army in the late 1970s, known for its distinctive carrying handle and compact design that maintains a full barrel length by placing the action behind the trigger group. The GBB version is licensed by Denmark's GunPoint and manufactured by Taiwan's NORTH EAST, with the reviewed unit being a second-production-run model featuring various improvements.
Mister Moro scrutinizes the MS Factory EVOLT Custom XM177E2 for Hyperdouraku. He states that this model is based on the new Tokyo Marui EVOLT system but styled after the classic XM177E2, a short version of the M16 used by special forces during the Vietnam War. This unique combination gives players an old-school aesthetic paired with modern performance.
Tokyo Marui has launched the EVOLT RS FPR MK4, the latest addition to its EVOLT RS electric airsoft rifle series and Hyperdouraku does an early review.

Mister Moro reviews for Hyperdouraku the Tokyo Marui SG553+ Electric Gun Plus is a modernized, compact version of the classic Swiss-designed SG550. While the original series was known for being a bit "creaky" and plastic-heavy, this updated version features reinforced resin and a much sturdier build. It comes equipped with a four-sided rail system for accessories, making it look much more at home in a modern tactical setting than its vintage predecessors.

The model maintains the Gen 5 characteristics, such as the front slide serrations and the Modular Optic System (MOS) for mounting red dot sights.
