Bow & Arrow

Post by Aesthetikz » Fri Jan 15, 2010 12:31 am

Hi there.
Recently acquired an old Larami Super Soaker "Bow & Arrow", It's still boxed/packaged and is in near mint condition.

Not finding much info on this specific Soaker...
Is this anything Special? Did i hit strike gold here, Or is it just an Average soaker?

Nice find. These are rare. They're made in '93, right?

Nothing that jackpottish though. I think this is a pretty nice find, but with range and stuff, this isn't that great.

Post pics! I wanna see this thing!

Diito to JuchTurtles! Nice find, but from a performance standpoint, nothing likely too notable. That said, they are not too common, thus are semi-precious to collectors (though it's hard to know the going value since few are put on auction). Unless you're really curious on how well it works, I believe it is best kept as a collector's piece as opposed to put to use.

While it is probably the case that keeping it mint will increase the collector's value, it's also the case that there doesn't seem to be anyone in the community who's fired it. iSoaker doesn't even have photos, and there's very few branded blasters for which that's the case.
