Just thought I would throw this out there for discussion..... I am willing to donate another CPS 2100 for this years giveaway, and was thinking maybe we should do it before the hot weather arrives? These babies are selling pretty quick this year, and the value seems to be about double or triple what they were going for last year. I started the season about a month ago with over 200 of them, and have already unloaded about 50, so there may not be any left by fall!
As last year, I am willing to donate the Soaker, but expect someone to reimburse the shipping. Maybe a contest of some sort?

That's me! I picked up a Super Soaker Pool Pumper on ebay last Saturday for $7.99 mint in the box! I had been trying to find one for some time, and lost the last one to some guy who outbid me at over $130. Now I need a few more Monster Xs for my armory.

I am actually bidding on a few different Soakers. I am building an armory in the basement that will look like a military installation. All the Soakers will be rack mounted. I want to have at least a dozen each of all the larger cannons.

It is an ongoing project, and I still have quite a few Soakers to buy. The racks will be painted military olive drab.... It should look pretty cool. I never lose interest in cool toys, and Super Soakers are near the top of my list.

hehe... I don't think I will enter this, lest I end up taking two CPS2100s off you, King! It depends what sort of contest it is, I suppose.

Errr... half a dozen CPS2000s, MXLs, CPS2500s? Your wallet is considerably deeper than mine... :P

I wonder when the giveaway will start this year. Even though I wasn't a member at the time of last years soaker giveaway I am pretty sure it started around fall 2004. Will it be at the same date or earlier. I hope earlier hehe. I wonder what soakers will given away this year. Perhaps ones like a XP 55, XP 95, XP 150 or some CPS's will suit me although I think I am asking for a bit much here. :P It would be nice though. ^_^

Will there be a giveaway the size of last year's? That was a really good one despite myself not winning anything! :Hey, that's funny.: Anyone willing to step up and volunteer a 1st or 3rd prize? I think the 2100 would make a good second, a rare CPS could be first, and an XP or other air pressure gun for 3rd, like last year.

I agree with Duxburian here. 1st prize is a rare CPS, then perhaps that CPS 2100 for 2nd and 3rd a rare XP like the XP 150 or something. :P
