Cloud in his Original SS 50 topic clarified some points relating to the numbering of the original Super Soakers. Here's another point, though. Looking at this picture of the SS 200 I recently bought, it seems that it was originally called the Super Soaker 2000.

This makes the third "2000" Super Soaker gun (CPS, Max-D, and now SS).

Comments? Rarity? Already known?

EDIT: spelling

Maybe a fake. Did you get it in its origanal box? That is a little odd. It looks like a origanal ss 200 to.

This is no fake: it was made by Larami as the gun body testifies.

Wow, this is interesting. Did anyone else notice that it says "Ideal" under Super Soaker? I wonder what that meant? Do you have a picture of the box Spinner?

I'm going to put this in the gallery. This is a very rare soaker, one that deserves a showcase and possibly a short little paragraph of info.

No box, sadly. Bought it second hand along with a couple of SS 100s (that is, SS50s while they were called SS100s). By all means put it in the gallery. I noticed the "Ideal" bit, is it strange as well?

I think it's just the Euro edition of the SS 200.
