That soaker reminds me of a gardening tool/sprayer I've used to spray things like herbicides and insecticides back in the 1980's.

Interesting find. Makes me wonder if there are more like that one as I've often wondered why I never saw a soaker like it before. Fills in part of the soaker evolutionary gap. :goofy:

:cool:

I remember that there was some discussion at WWN about this. I had seen an online vintage toy store that was selling a few of these as well. I've also seen the patent for this water gun and I'll pull it up if I come across it again. I don't believe they sued Larami for making an air pressure water gun because their company went out of business. :;):

If you look at his full review, the pump is on top of the reservoir part. The reservoir is not attached to the blaster directly; instead, there's a tube between the two.
