Super Soaker XP 220 – A Closer Look

super_soaker_xp220_gridThe Super Soaker XP 220 was the second-smallest air pressure water gun released by Larami Ltd. in 2000 under the Super Soaker XP brand and is like the Super Soaker XP 215s slightly older brother. While definitely a pistol-class water blaster, the XP 220 will fit only larger pockets. Having twice the water capacity of the XP 215, the XP 220 offers a little longer field life, though its limited output and capacity means this water blaster is not meant to challenge significantly larger pressurized water blasters.

Super Soaker Monster (2001) – A Closer Look

super_soaker_monster_gridLike the Super Soaker CPS 1500, the Super Soaker Monster (2001) remains also one of my all-time favourite water blasters. The smallest of the “Monster” series of Super Soaker water blasters, the Super Soaker Monster (2001) is actually my preferred one of the three. Evolving (or, more accurately, devolving) into the Super Soaker CPS 4100 for 2002, the Super Soaker Monster (2001) has a great design and provides solid performance. Interestingly, it is because Hasbro/Larami decided to create a smaller “Monster-class” water blaster that the original Super Soaker Monster ended up being renamed as the Super Soaker Monster X. However, it also has some traits that could have been improved upon. Unfortunately, also like Super Soaker CPS 1500, the Super Soaker Monster (2001) evolution line ended all too soon.

Super Soaker CPS 1500 – A Closer Look

super_soaker_cps1500_gridThe Super Soaker CPS 1500 was released by Larami Ltd. back in 1998. While not the largest water blaster released that year by Larami, the CPS 1500 was, undoubtedly, my personal favourite blaster and one of the key reasons for me to get inspired enough to launch my first website dedicated to water blaster technology. Few blasters offer the power, flexibility, ease-of-use, unique styling, and additional features that make the CPS 1500 one of the best all-purpose water blasters ever created. The level of perfection achieved by this blaster was echoed by the fact that while the rest of the CPS line got new versions for their year 2000 release, the CPS 1500 merely got a new paint job and was renamed the CPS 1700.

Armoury:

The guns and types used in the water war are described below and should help clarify the battle report. It’s particuarly boring so if you want, go ahead and skip to the war. The report itself is fairly small, due to my inability to remember details. It took about 2-3 hours. Continue reading Hydro Brawl: Party Smasher – Battle Report – 04/21/07 @ 14:00
