Pumponator BLASTCAMO Water Balloon Blaster

Has anyone ever seen one of these water balloon launchers in real life?

I was poking around various retail sites and came across this 'zook-styled water balloon launcher. Not quite clear on how easy it is to operate nor what sort of ranges to expect from the launching mechanism.

"Blast water balloons up to 40 ft!"
- As pictured on box.

Yeah, moving on lol.

Oh, sure... actually try READING the box as opposed to guessing.

Advertised 40' range; well, it seemed interesting at first glance.

Perhaps even Walmart's employees in charge of web content get paid so little that they'd neglect the most important information about a product listing. Or perhaps the manufacturer simply neglected to send the fill description for the website listing.

I was skeptical in the first place, since water balloons are heavy and it takes a lot of power to launch one.

I don't know what's funnier; the advertised range, or the name.

If I couldn't get a CPS 1200 for the same price on E-bay, I'd probably buy this. Wouldn't be very useful in community wars, but it would be pretty fun to use in casual local ones. At the same time though I could build a homemade launcher with at least twice the power for only slightly more money.
