The new site looks cool. I knew that it would look a little like the old SoakerTag Elite page. Doesn't the word Super Soaker look a little different at the top of the page? I think Hasbro changed it a little bit.

I hope they have a new commercial. I don't knoe why, but watching the commercials gives me a feeling of nostagic I never had.

And I think they did re-logo the logo.

They have a pretty siginificant typo on the Defender info page. It says XP-70 in the lower text instead of Defender. Interesting. :p

Huge 50-ounce water supply pack connects to your MAX INFUSION blaster (sold separately).

Strap on the gear that will win you the water fight! The MAX INFUSION AQUAPACK more than doubles your water capacity! The pack is easy to fill with the special quick-fill cap. With a virtually endless supply of water you can strategically battle your way through even the toughest water fights and outlast your competitors! While they’re off refilling their blasters, you’ll still be going strong!

Pack for use only with MAX INFUSION blasters (sold separately).


Yeah, while the Aquapak user is off filling their backpack, I'll still be drenching them with my CPS 1700. :goofy: Whatever.

I have no idea what is with the Helix/Defender/XP-70 mix-up. ???

Part of me really doesn't understand why Hasbro opted to use red as the primary background colour of Supersoaker.com. Maybe it's just me, but I find that much red a little aggressive.

The other thing I find a little strange is that most of the pictures feel somewhat cartoonified (is that a word?) Even some soaker pics seem a little off in terms of colours/details.

As for the Defender/XP-70 mix-up, I have a feeling that the Defender really is supposed to be the 2006 version of the XP-70 and that someone mixed up behind-the-scene talk with public, site posting info. :goofy:

I love important errors like that. On the standardized tests I'm taking next week, there is a big typo on the grading rubric for the essay, in the Spelling and Grammar category of all places! :p

Why is it that I can still see the Triple Shot for 9.99? Does this mean that they are still selling them or is it just a big mistake? I also noticed that Hasbro did not take new pictures of the Max Infusion Flash Flood and Artic Shock in some parts of their new page.

Yes, I personally prefer blue or green, much more passive.

Maybe they wanted to Super Soakers a bit less realistic.

I didn't read any of the topic... so
The backpack, will it work with an '05 flash flood, and an '05 arctic shock?
Isoaker, you should know you have some of these soakers, don't you?
I'm going to buy 5 waterbackpacks (word?) then attach them to my aquapack :oo: :cooll: :wb1: :wb2: Love these smilies :D

You can't attach the backpack to any 04-05 and even some 06 soakers. The cap is larger and twists open clock wise unlike ALL other water guns: soakers and non-soakers.
so there is no way it can be attached and that totaly sucks because I was planning in January to do the same with an aquapack dev. Sorry

I think that they are going to do that or something else very soon to their site because it says in the category "Fun Stuff" that they are going to add something soon. But, it will probably be a new commercial.
