SuperSoaker(tm)
Concepts
Though
the water blasters currently manufactured by Larami Ltd. are, without
doubt, the most effective on the market, there is always room for improvement.
Larami Ltd. has done a great job at pushing the envelope of water combat.
The following ideas are just concepts for possible future water blasters
which build upon what is already out there:
CPS-Shotgun:
Combine the power of the CPS series with a nozzle like those found on
the XP 75 when its nozzle is removed. In other words, this blaster would
not fire a stream, rather a spreading blast of water. Range of this blaster
would be hampered by this design but area covered by water would be greatly
increased. (Suggested in 1999)
CPS-MDS: Combine CPS power with a movable nozzle like that found
on the SS:MDS and one now can fire safely and powerfully even around corners
without fear of return-fire. (Suggested in 1999)
Flexi-Pak: A 6-8L backpack for holding water akin to the CPS 3000's
but with an adapter to attach to most CPS, SC and newer XP models which
have the screw-on reservoir cap. Imagine giving an XP 110 an 8L reservoir.
(Suggested in 1999)
Modular Soaker: Imagine having a building set made up of interchangeable
pieces so you can put together one's own design. Though I'm not sure how
this can technically work, the idea of being able to take prefabricated
modular parts to build a SuperSoaker like building with Lego(tm) would
be a novel design.(Suggested in 2000)
Monster Plus: Take the existing Monster weaponry and attach a large
(8L) backpack to it in place of the small reservoir. Have the backpack
also QFD-fillable (like the backpack on the CPS3200). (Suggested in 2000)
Trigger Variable Soaker: A soaker with a variable nozzle that expands
in diameter the harder you pull on the trigger. The blaster would need
to have a decent-sized CPS firing chamber. The nozzle size range could
vary from 2x-20x just by squeezing more. This would make it easier to
dish out more soaking when needed instead of having to switch nozzles
on multi-nozzle blasters mid-water war. (Suggested in 2001)
SuperSoaker Accessories: The following ideas are not weaponry but
rather gear which would seriously enhance water fights if available:
- SC: Power
Pump: This device
would be a hybrid between a QFD, a hand or foot pump and a hose. Simply
put, this decive would let SC: Class weaponry to be refilled if a hose
is not present but a reservoir of water is. The hose should be similar
to that found on the XP: Pool Pumper Cannon or Blaster to allow one
to draw water from a wide variety of sources. (Suggested
in 2000)
- SuperSoaker
Battle Gear: Official
gear for the true SuperSoaker fanatic. This gear set would include a
plastic face-shield/visor, vinyl fingerless gloves, a waterproof fanny
pack to hold extra gear, etc. (Suggested
in 2000)
- SuperSoaker
Slingshot II: A
redesign of the original SuperSoaker water balloon slingshot to satisfy
those who like mixing water blasters with water balloons.

THESE PREVIOUSLY POSTED IDEAS HAVE
BECOME REALITY:
CPS^2: Double-barrelled CPS-based water blaster. 'nuff said. (Known
as the Monster XL) (Suggested in 1999; Reality in 2000)
CPS-SC Hybrid: Unlike the SC 500 and SC 600, the CPS-SC Hybrid
series would be of the same size and calibre of the current CPS series
but have the added feature of being able to quickly refill using the QFD.
Imagine a CPS 1000 which could be refilled completely almost as quickly
as one can empty it. (Known as the Monster Series) (Suggested in 1999;
Reality in 2000)
