New "Accesory" things

[blaze]

If you read in the "Could it be?" topic, I mentioned that I got a set of 2 MD2000s (double deus, nothin better) with 2 Soaker Balls and 4 SoakerTags.

Let me start off with the SoakerTags. I praise hasbro for their effort on these, but they're total XPBackfire-esque. First off, they dissolve very quickly. A few shots from my MD2000 proved this. Secondly, they will only dissolve if a high pressure, concentrated stream hits them. That means riot blasts are useless. Thirdly, they are very small. You have to aim perfectly and hit them right where they have their tag, otherwise you're just wasting water. However, these tags do serve a purpose. What I did was clip one onto a leaf on a tree next to my house, and I used it as a target for practice. So, in the real battles, stick to your clothes (hehe thats what happens when u get wet).

On to the Soaker Balls. I have 2 of these. Thus, I have 2 balls (hehe sorry, had to do that...). If you let these soak in water, they won't fill as well as if you push them into the hose or faucet. You will know when they are full because they get heavier than usual. If you hit someone with on of these, it will do a pretty good job soaking the general area that it hit them, but are useless if they hit the ground. This is because they Don't explode like water balloons. So if you have good aim, this is actually pretty good to have around.

So you see, these both have a purpose. Attached are some pics of a ball and a Tag.

see, you allwayz thought that soakertag was so cool untill you tried it yourself. As for the ball stuff, I have 2 from another brand. Let me say this, stick to water balloons. Its like the difference between a rock and a granade.
