where can i get one of the super soaker with the large backpacks. I know where to get the small 100 backpacks but there used to be large backpacks which took all the space on your back. I would prefer it if it was a place in London

Do you mean like a max infusion aquapack?
If so they have 50 oz aquapacks for £7.99 plus postage on
www.amazon.co.uk.

Hope this helps.

The current water guns being produced with backpacks are the MI: Overload and (I think) the HydraPak; also, the Aquapack Devastator was a fairly recent soaker. Any of Super Soaker's recent Max Infusion (MI) line can be used with an additional Aquapack or the one bought with the Overload. Also, you can build a homemade backpack that is both larger and cheaper.

Backpacks that took space of the entire back? Those are no longer sold since 2002 in retail.

If you mean large backpacks, then you're probably going to have to spend a lot of money on ebay for a CPS 3000 or 3200, otherwise you can use the backpack that comes with the overload and/or the Flash Flood twin pack. The best thing you can do is to create your own backpack mod, in which there is an article of on this site. Go here:

Your best bet would be to check whether Toys R Us has any old stock. Otherwise, there unfortunately isn't really any one store that stocks old blasters, from what I know (I also live in the UK).

o well thanks for the information every1.. waz useful - what was the name of the super soakers which took the whole space of the back though?

Uh, the old, CPS-class Super Soakers that used a backpack of any type were the CPS 3000/3200, the SC Power Pak, and the SC Big Trouble. The last two I mentioned had the rubber bladders inside the backpacks and were filled with the hose and a QFD, but the Big Trouble was smaller--so if anything, the Big Trouble did not cover your back as much as something else might. Those two can't have backpacks replaced by a trashbag backpack.

Could you please watch your grammar a bit more? That last post was a bit of a mess, but at least it was readable. Also remember to capitalize the word "I"!

How much is the SS3000/3200 worth? I guess the only place to get it would be e-bay.

Spinner · 08-07-2006, 08:04 AM

Both the CPS 3000 and CPS 3200 would fetch over £50 on eBay, in all likelihood.

Spinner's right, but it also depends on the time of year. This being the end of summer for those living in the northern hemisphere, the prices have already come down, and they'll start going back up in late winter or early spring. I don't know much about the actual prices, but if you're getting one, then you'd best do it soon.
