I'm told all these should be in stores soon.
The IRT-2X has removed the need for a manual reload, fires in up to 3-shot bursts, does not have medic mode or MEGA TAGS. The MEGA TAGS are adequately replaced by the 3-shot bursts which fire fast enough to give it an advantage over the Deluxe, since the 3 quick shots don't cause an overheat,guidohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09692192972952011786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9594082.post-1102958336500787462004-06-12T12:18:00.000-04:002004-12-13T14:45:40.493-04:00Team Ops update 2By Brian aka TagFerret, 6/12/2004

Lazer Tag is ressurrected this summer as Lazer Tag Team Ops from Tiger/Hasbro. I am one of the co-inventors of the new system, and I wrote all the code for it. When the product hits the shelves (in early July 2004), the LazerTag.com Web site will go active with more info.
