UserID: 1 | Great website! I love the reviews and the fictional timeline (if only Larami/Hasbro continued down that path...). I ran you out of bandwidth, so everyone would have to wait an hour to see your site. Keep up the good work. You might want to make a home page linking all of your sites together (Ice Blue Combat, Speed Loader information, Super Soaker Classics information).

Interesting that you mentioned that, since I started 2 weeks ago on a "Overall Water Gun Library" that will link every site. As for the brandwidth problem, the pictures went over the limit again probably, so I will have to do some resizing again. Quote:
[EDIT]: I downsized the Timeline pictures abit to avoid geocties problems. Its nice to see that people like the timeline section. Since they where alot of fun to make, I am planning now to make a Fictional Watergun Review site some time in the future. Everything fictional, yet detailed and eleborate.

UserID: 454 | Update: Added 3 new fictional soakers to the timeline- Super Soaker 5000, Super Soaker 6000 and Super Soaker 7000. The next time the timeline will be updated would be when Hasbro releases the 2006 line up. |

UserID: 454 | The small-brand name section has been finaly added. Its very likely that some of the info in that section is very new to most people here in Canada and the USA, including even people over 22 years. |

UserID: 1 | That was actually a real (likely the first) Super Soaker advertisement. There used to be a really neat website on that advertisement, but it appears that the link was lost in WaterWar.net's disappearance. I also had a link to watch the first Super Soaker commercial in Chinese, but I don't know where that went either (it was unintelligible anyway).

UserID: 454 | I saved that comercial actualy. I will try to put it on the website. Its still the best Watergun comercial up to date. They tried to make it look as cool as possible, by pressurizing the SS50 via cocking style like a shotgun. It even shows the SS100 proto typ at the end which had a different PC. |
