A talented artist known as @tofu_rabbit on X recently revealed that the design of Nerf’s Ace of Spades handgun from Bungie’s Destiny games was inspired by a commissioned artwork they created nearly ten years ago.
Nerf and Bungie introduced their latest collaboration, a limited edition foam dart gun based on Cayde-6’s iconic “Ace of Spades” blaster from Destiny 2, which is now available for purchase on Bungie’s online store. The next day, @tofu_rabbit shared images comparing Nerf’s new foam dart launcher to a piece of art they crafted in 2015 and shared on their DeviantArt page featuring the same gun from the game.
The artist identified 11 specific elements or designs on the Nerf gun that closely resemble their original creation. These include details such as an upside-down spade on the handle, matching cracks in a paint strip on the bullet chamber, and a paisley pattern engraved just in front of the trigger. They argue that the design of the Nerf gun was clearly influenced by their own work.
