Has anyone seen a hydroblitz in stores yet?

Yeah, it's been seen. And if I'm not mistaken, I believe somebody also got one. The gun isn't as good as it seems though, as it's underpowered for its weight. Balancing issues also exist.

Although I never saw one in stores myself, it's the fist time I see one in the forums :;):. Welcome Hydroblitz!

As far as I know, Evangel recently bought one. You can read about it in the First '07 soaker sighting thread. For now the hydroblitz seems to be too expensive for it's power, and most of people are now looking for cheaper BBT water blasters such as the Orca and Tigershark instead. I'm still curious about the hydroblitz though(especially for its size, pump and burst shot).

Sorry to sound a little naive, working in a physics lab three times a week does strange things to you. What is a HydroBlitz?

It's that monstrous, box-shaped soaker that SS came out with this year.

It's shaped like a minigun, and you pump with the front handle. There's a switch to go between the large, pulsating burst stream and the normal stream.

Lol, your description is priceless. :laugh: It looks interesting; I might buy it if I hear its good....

Oh whoops, I didn't pass judgement on the water gun...not even any weasel words.

As far as I'm concerned, the HydroBlitz is oversized, overpriced, and underpowered. Range is only around 40 feet and it's at least $40. The water gun is massive, with a center of gravity so far out that you can't turn easily, it'll probably break down soon due to internal complexity, etc.

Yeah I have one. Hey! I just realized my sister lended me her video camera! I can record some videos if you guys want.

Please do. I love the HydroBlitz and I'm planning to get one.

P.S. Are you Evil Angel from NERF? Or am I thinking of someone else?

I already have some videos on my pc (from a digital camera) of the bursts and stream. But I don't know how to post vids here. (youtube?)

Post by **hydroblitz** » Sat May 12, 2007 4:06 pm

Yes, put it on YouTube.

Post by **forestfighter7** » Sun May 13, 2007 1:08 pm

Yeah, I would out it on youtube and just give us the link. I look forward to seeing it in action!

Uh, nope. Never played NERF, sorry.

Oh, ok. Sorry for the misconfusion.

As there is also a Hydro Blitz thread in The Armoury: Stock Talk, I'm opting to close this thread.
