Hey, thanks for the response. I'm not really interested in selling any, but I could trade for certain ones I don't have. I'm really interested in getting unique Soakers I'm missing more than anything else. If each gun averaged about $15, then the collection would be worth more than $4000. There's a...

Hi everybody, I've been talking about taking a new picture of my Super Soaker collection for quite some time. It's been a couple years since my last photos went up, and I've gotten a few more soakers since then. Hope you like the pictures. My Super Soakers http://www.wcnews.com/chrisreid/supersoake...

we are obviously going through a soakological famine, so to speak, and i think we should all stock up on CPS guns while the getting's still relatively good, and wait for 2005. After recently inventorying my collection, I have to say this is far from true. There were actually quite a lot of little g...

You could start by adding the QFD nozzle that they removed when transforming the 2001 Monster into the CPS 4100.

I'd prefer an official Super Soaker mobile water balloon filler (made in limited supply about ten years ago).

As you can see from Isoakers comparison, the capacity difference is not worth mentioning. I already replied to that. Those ratings are just one person's subjective assessments. As I said last time those ratings were quoted a few posts up in this thread, according to Isoaker's actual stats, the 600 ...

Yeah.. there's a lot of #### shield squirters or whatever they're called on store shelves. I'm not sure whether to be depressed or not. It depends on whether the prevalence of the shield blasters is because everyone is leaving them in favor of the super soakers.

Why is it wierd? It's just stupid to think that the largest is the best automatically. The 500 is much more manuevarable. For all we know, Soakologist could simply be buying the gun for a scout or spy, in which case the 600 woudl be to unwieldly. At any rate, he shoudl be allowed to keep secrets on...

I like the 500's size over the SC 600's. Why must I say why I need one? Why talk on a forum at all? I think the 600 is better than the 500 in almost every way, so it's kind of weird to want to be hunting for a 500. Look at ISoaker's actual stats, not the ratings. The pressure tank is twice as big o...

Hey Chris, how does it come down? It didn't go as high as I thought it might. How many times did you pump it up? Wow, how high did you think it went? It goes up pretty #### high. http://www.wcnews.com/chrisreid/2004soaking10.jpg is about 60 pumps. About 130 pumps is where the pressure starts to get...

There's a level thing inside. If it's more than a few degrees off, I don't think it'll launch at all. That might've been our launch problem.. we circumvented it by taking it apart and launching it manually. I really don't think it'd injur someone to get hit, unless they fell because of the shock. I...

Yeah, the smallest Monster is what he means. The 4100 is the same gun minus the QFD port.

It's actually red, white & blue instead of orange and blue. I actually couldn't get the launch mechanism to work. Had to take the bottom off and trigger it manually.
