EXCELLENT WEAPON FOR PURE PWNAGE! March 6, 2007 Rusty Shackelford (Arlen, Texas) 29 out of 31 found this review helpful
This gun is great! It combines a wide mouth opening for ice cubes (thus antiquating the dated Arctic Shock) while also equipped with a powerful shot gun blast (like that of the Flash Flood). Thus, this combines two great concepts into one powerful package that looks very sleek. The range is also very good; with 10-15 pumps you have a 30ft stream or about a 20ft shotgun blast, which is huge and unloads massive amounts of water. If you get this, you MUST buy the 100 oz water back pack since that shotgun blast is so addicting. The 40 oz capacity is good, but the true potential of this gun is only accessible with an expanded water supply. This gun puts the Cover Control to shame, though the Covert Control also has some more functionality, it is vastly underpowered compared to the Arctic Blast.
An awesome super soaker June 17, 2007 J. Levinson 17 out of 17 found this review helpful
I am writing this review for my 8-yr old son who is dictating.....The arctic blast super soaker is really good and shoots really far. The downside is that you have to pump it a really long time to 'shock' people with a big blast. If you put lots of ice and pump it 50 times it will be really cold.

A few years back super soaker went down hill when they hit walmart shelves. Cheap, leaky, unreliable, china made worthless material. Well, super soaker is back, and this gun screams quality. Apart from the odd shape, it is made of heavy duty plastics. The pump is solid and the mechanics of it is strong and beefy. Fat rubber seals effectively make it watertight. This all adds up to one quality gun that you can toss carelessly into your back seat of the car without worrying about leaks. It builds pressure quick with only a few pumps, and the water stream is tight and powerful. The quick fill valve concept works great. The gun looks deceivingly small in the pictures but it's actually quite a large gun. Definitely would buy again.
It's Ok July 6, 2007 Rhapsody (Waldorf, Maryland United States) 4 out of 9 found this review helpful
It's a pretty good Super Soaker. The water blast feature was disappointing. It doesn't compare to the Flash Flood's water blast which is stronger and shoots out more water. In a water battle, your only advantage is the ice cold water you can shoot at your friends. But on a 95 degree day, your enemies just might enjoy you shooting them with ice cold water. Today's Super Soaker's don't compare to the awesomeness of the 2001 line featuring the Monster X and Monster XL. If looking for the best water guns, find an older, second-hand, Super Soaker for sale.
Good buy! August 10, 2007 K. Fletcher (Macungie, PA United States) 4 out of 7 found this review helpful
I literally got squeals from my children when they saw this toy! The fact you can add ice cubes only further delighted them. A definite relief from a hot summer day!
