Whoa. Can you give us more info on the behaviour? Being a tie in, it's probably PR, but you never know.

S. Nozzle: 20 ft., 7.5 sec.
B. Nozzle: 12 ft., 5 sec.
F. Nozzle: 5 ft., 5 sec.
D. Nozzle: 15 ft., 5 sec.

S=Small
B=Big
F=Fan
D=Defense

It's basically a Secret Strike in a different case.

Ah, thank you. That would explain the defense mode spray. Are those measurements accurate? 20 feet range seems a bit underpowered for a modern stock soaker selling for 29.99.

Would the shield be of any use in a water fight?

its seams like the price is that high due to the other attrabutes of the soaker (sheild) rahter then the power behind it. but it still looks cool so any more info would be sweet.

Are those measurements level or angled?

The shield would be useful in a war because it's small on its own, and when you pop out the defense shield, it is like holding a big, and of course, heavy frisbee. The trigger is a long blue stick that acts like the MAX-D line triggers. The pump shaft is quite sturdy. You have to close the cap kinda tightly or else air will escape. There is a strap to keep your arm in place. There is also a right and left switch for different handed users that is located under your arm. The pump is oddly shaped. More oddly shaped than the Orca or the Arctic Blast. It's in the shape of a robotic yellow arm. The nozzles are quite small. Probably like a 1x 2x fan and 1x. You can't connect a max infusion backpack to it. To pop out the defense shield, you have to pull out a blue shaft, similar to the pump shaft. The only good nozzle for when the defense shield is out would of course be the defense mode spray. But it is akward to be shooting from a nozzle that sprays right or left. Therefore, you have to put the soaker close to your body to shoot and to defend. The pump shaft is quite short, but is longer than the defense shield shaft. In the demo, it shows that it shoots from the top. It doesn't. It shoots from the left side when you are looking at it head on. You can check out more features and different soakers at:

thanks for the input! im wondering, cause the soaker looks pretty cool, if there are any ways to make it preform any better?

One mod that would work is a PRPRVR (Pressurized Reservoir Pressure Release Valve Removal). Another I could picture working is a reservoir expansion, but you can't really do much to make a weak blaster better.

The only place that I've seen it being sold is at the super soaker website. It looks like it's Hasbro's answer to the shield blaster line. I wasn't too impressed with those guns anyway.

Er... Not to be an ass here, but this topic is over two weeks old.
