SS 50. Broke while trying to do Indiana Jones off my garage roof to the neighbours. Lets just say I will never be so stupid.

My first soaker was the XP20, however I didn't know it at the time. The first soaker I knew I had was an XP110

My first SuperSoaker was a SC 500. I forgot I had it for awhile, and picked up a MD 6000 as my first "true" soaker when I fist got started.

Yeah, my sisters both had SS 50's way before me. That's how I got introduced to soakers. Then I was looking at a Toys 'R Us catalog back in '96 and I remember looking at that CPS 2000 and wanting it. My mom was like, "No, it's way too big and you can't carry it." (I was only 6 years old.) So she let me get an XP 65 instead. I still had that gun for a long time, but I lost it somewhere.

I think mine was the xp-65...ahh the good old days

My first soaker was the XP150 that my cousin gave me. My next one was the XP110 (I think). Then I got a CPS1000 and later, a CPS2100. That XP150 was so fun, but my mom probably threw it away or something.

Toaster · 07-12-2004, 05:20 PM

I'm not quite sure, but I do believe that my old SC600 which I got from a relative or a family friend or something, was my first gun. doesn't really work anymore. the nozzle's a little *#[at]%-ed up. it's good for making mist-rainbows, though. <_<

EDIT: correction- now that I think about it, the more I think a MD-6000 was my first gun. yeah. I named it Hydron, and my SC 600 I named Hydron II.

My first gun was a CPS 1200 which I got for passing grading four. I also remember seeing a couple monsters and monster XLs there. I wanted one but I didn't have enough. <_<

Lucky! when did you get it?

It was a birthday present when I was seven. Sadly it fired without me pulling the trigger after a couple years and I threw it away.

My first was a Cps 1-3-5, but the first I used was a Cps 2000 MK1. I was so sad that my 1-3-5 wasn't as good as a Cps 2000. And now my 1-3-5 is dead since I really messed it up. It was the first gun I modded. Trigger valve broke, it shoots when I pump. The original pump went to the cause of fixing my friend's Cps 1500. I'm still going to keep it, as a reminder of what mods can do to guns. So sad.

trekkie00 · 07-15-2004, 06:48 PM

My first soaker was an original CPS 2700. By that, I mean it is the original red-yellow-and-purple kind. It is still one of my favorite soakers. It's pretty durable; it withstood two trips over the Atlantic. I'm thinking of reinforcing it so it will last as long as possible.

Don't laugh, but I still think it is one of the greatest of the CPS series.

NiborDude · 07-16-2004, 12:09 AM

I agree. I just got my 2700 today and its awesome! People who think the 2700 is bad are out of their mind.

blaze · 07-16-2004, 01:02 PM

I Don't know anyone who thinks the 2700 is bad. It's said by many to be the most powerful balloon CPS. Its reserve is the biggest of any non backpack soaker (bigger than the MXLs). Its 3 nozzles are very flexible for any job. The only problem that people have with it is that it's design is kind of XPBackfire-esquepy. The pump is under the soaker and the nozzle selector has a funny weird thing over it. And the gun is friggin' huge and has terrible colors. But if these minor setbacks Don't matter to you, then there really is not much wrong with the soaker (though I would have loved to see a fan burst on that gun).

ryaxnb · 07-16-2004, 04:09 PM

I believe XP 270. Me and Nigel and William (friends) were really able to fight back against Micahel and William (bully-ish) and their XP 240 now!.
