"Refill Station: I'd love to see some device that'd be a step up from the original Fast-Fill/QFD. Basically, it'd be a hose attachment, but designed for making it even easier for filling water blasters. Standard garden hose nozzles are alright, but perhaps a modified nozzle that doesn't spray back ...

I had no idea Buzz Bee was even making Water Warriors commericals, so when I saw one after I got up this morning I thought I was having a hallucenation due to lack of sleep. :p First of all, the kid with the sunglasses... the whole getting pushed around by other kids and then coming back and taking...

My suggestions: - I'd love for the trigger grips to be alittle larger in next year's lineup. Right now my pinky finger has no place to go but underneath the handle, and while that's ok, I really like being able to get tight grip around the whole thing when I'm running around with a blaster. - I rem...

One thing I did notice was that the paint applications seem to be hand painted; I can make out brush strokes in the silver paint.

Water Warriors Argon - Thoughts

Well, seeing as how it was such a nice day, I walked to Walmart to see if they had their summer assortment out yet. Sure enough, they had a the Water Warriors 2005 line out for sale. I picked up the Argon. Right out of the package I could tell this sucker was sturdy; beefier feeling than most Super...

I feel that almost every design up until last year's lineup represented a "Super Soaker" pretty well, to varying degrees. I wasn't a fan of the "Super Weird Angle" of the XP-220 and others that shared the same shape, but it was certainly better than the "Rejected Phaser Rifle Concepts From Star Tre...

"What prevents you from selling water guns in the sporting goods section, with the paintball and airsoft guns?"

" Just because your soaker can shoot farther than anyone elses, does not mean you are the all mighty ruler of the soaker field. Get over yourself.

"As no soakers made by the usual companies appear to ever be able to meet your standards (as I recall you said once even the CPS2000 didn't cut it anymore)," Yeah... if the 2000 doesn't meet his standards anymore, than I'd say he's pretty much a lost cause. It's one thing to want more power, but I ...

Secondly, I'm digging the look of the 4 new blasters... they look more like what an "Elite" Soaker line should look like, rather than like rejected Phaser rifles from Star Trek: Voyager.

^The new "Super Soakers" are so far removed from what the general public thinks of as a Super Soaker that I don't think that name brand has as much of an impact anymore. Water Warriors went the more traditional design route, while still looking unique. That, coupled with obviously better models may...
