...that Hasbro's SuperSoaker page is entitled 'The Original High Performance Blaster'. I guess it hasn't been updated for a while... <_<

Okay, that's going overboard. This is NOT spam, this is a fine smaller topic to discuss. Topic unlocked - don't be so strict.

Thanks Doom... it wasn't intended as spam; just a minor comment on the difference between Hasbro's SuperSoaker 'tagline' and the reality of their recent blasters. :( Maybe there's still a hope that they'll build something to live up to it... :unsure: or maybe the age of the SuperSoaker is truly over, and homemades are the only way forwards. Just my 2 pence/cents/pick-your-own-currency.

P.S. I'll take that warning at its face value and keep a tighter check on posting. :)

I think you're right, the age of the Super Soaker may well be over. However, homemades may not be the only way forwards. We'll have to see the new Water Warriors line first, they may be taking over the soaker scene soon.

What if Hasbro simply stopped the Super Soaker line?

...Would that be so bad? :P
Whatever music you listen to probably sucks.

People would be annoyed about the loss of re-makes (like the CPS 4100) but they wouldn't really mourn the death of super soaker.

Super Soakers haven't been wrecked. Anyway, what would you do if super soakers weren't made anymore? Judging from your posts, all you have is a triple aggressor. Without that, you wouldn't have any water guns (oh the horror :P ).

Watch it. There's no need to go after someone like that for their own opinion.
Me: Thinks that the Super Soaker line hasn't been wrecked, merely crippled, and even if it had been wrecked, it would have started with E.E.S. not Soaker Tag.
