Something neat

[the oncoming storm]

This youtube video has clips from several old water gun commercials including a 300!

Found the 300 clip It's an add for a moto squirter the shout and shoot (It's the only blaster to fire in the whole add the 300 would have wiped it out)

Nice editing and combination of the commercials. I haven't even seen most of them and never saw how cool SS commercials used to be (running in the woods).

I do dislike the juxtapositioning of water/Nerf blasters on a backdrop of violence, trying to imply/show some sort of intrinsic link between these activities and actual warfare. Although I guess all those bizarre Nerf/water blaster videos with muzzle flashes and gunshot sounds edited on are bad in their on right too. People just can't shoot the things for what they are. No, I'm not offended, but considering the fact that water warfare is, (ironically with its name), far less violent than say, football, it's a bit odd to throw something together that puts it on the same level as actual warfare. Of course, sheep people don't call the cops on you for playing football in public either, so go figure.

Anyway, nice find. I wonder if all those SS commercials are up around somewhere, I never quite trekked YouTube for them.

What about this one? The Super Soaker 2000 I think it is a forien add, since it the price isn't in $$$, but I'm to lazy to look up what that symbol is. Here it was also called the Super Soaker 200, not 2000.
I really wanted to find the one with the Monster XL though, it looked really funny. I have to say though, I think we should try and throw something like this together at the community war. I don't think it would be too hard to stage a quick ambush and some nozzle switching action. Then all we'd need is an overly enthusiastic announcer talking about waterwar.net! (I vote my friend Bela, he is really good at that kind of thing) I know we mostly want to have real battles, but often late in the afternoon everyone is too tired to fight, we could do it then.

Edit: Hay I just found another one: XP 310 Still looking for that Monster one with them fighting in the city.
And the XP 85 Triple shot This one is with the camp director again. Who would have thought looking these up would be so much fun?

Nice find, if only they weren't so small.

Another add, some one needs to make a YouTube playlist compiling all of these! The Super Soaker 500 (100 in USA)
Although not actually for Super soaker, it is still a pretty cool add using CPS guns: DC Child Support Services Division
In no way related, but just seemed cool: Counter Strike CPS 1000 mod
