Humm I see. Alright. I guess I would have to wait for some one who knows. But if I ask hasbro, won't they give some sort of responce? They discontinued Monster Xl no to long ago.

I doubt they would take it back since you have opened it. Once you use a hack saw on it, it can't be returned (unless they never find out).

Hum darn that sucks for me. I shouldn't have over charged The monster xl. Someone would you please tell me how to open the trigger valve? -Psi.

I have confirmed that the glue used to bond the trigger valve is plumbers adhesive.

Finally fixed

Finally I fixed this gun. I had to use a bow saw to open it. Once I opened it I noticed that one part was dislocated. So I used some glue & glued it back together. After a few days I sealed the valve with some plumber’s adhesive, and screwed the screws back on. I let is sit for a few hours, and started to piece it back together. When I attached the long rod, I noticed that the purple plastic piece was loose. After knowing that I used a rubber band enforce it. Once it was put together, I tested it, and it worked like a charm. I couldn't believe it, it was finally fixed.

Thanks for all the help everyone.

Now that I have encountered this trigger valve opening process, I think I can help others with their problems.

Well thanks again, and have a day.
