shieeettt. I just spent the last 30 minutes of my life browsing on The Armoury :: :: iSoaker.com reading up on all the epic water guns back in the day.
As much as I loved the Super Soaker when I was younger, it didn't last very long for me. I had decided to put down my guns and move on to something MOAR!
Sonick is a genius. I won't go into detail what's so great about his post. But it's damn good!

The Oozinator has garnered scrutiny because of its television marketing campaign.
Its main television ad shows a boy with the toy shooting other, unarmed, children with the ooze function. In response to the ad, Steve Hall from AdRANTS said "The people who created this ad are either living in a land far removed from current day culture, are completely clueless or, conversely, have a seriously twisted sense of humor. This ad for the Hasbro Super Soaker Oozinator features a gun that when pumped a few times shoots a white globular substance all over the faces and bodies of those in the ad. Sound familiar? We thought so. While we're sure it's fun to pump something until it shoots a bunch of gooey stuff, we can't help but imagine how this thing got created, reviewed and approved without a lot of snickering."[2]
The Internet advertisements also garnered criticism. The Hasbro website promotes and describes the toy claiming: Sneak up on your opponents with a surprise bio-ooze attack! Just when they think you’re coming at ‘em with water, blast ‘em with a shot of icky bio-ooze! Shoot out globs of gooey bio-ooze and then drench ‘em with water! It’s a double blast attack that’ll keep your opponents on their toes and running during every water fight. With the OOZINATOR blaster you don’t just get soaked, you get drenched![3]
The AV Club (a Los Angeles based production company) made a spoof video of a board meeting discussing the Oozinator, where one person sees how the toy could be suggestive, but is ostracized by the others for it.[4]
The commercial for the Oozinator was featured on the December 18, 2006 episode of The Daily Show. In the segment "This Week in God," the Oozinator was named as "the Number One "Devil's Plaything" for Christmas," and correspondent Samantha Bee noted it offered "Junior's first moneyshot."[5]
This still sits in my closet.
I remember this one time I thought some kid broke it after pumping it for a while. The trigger was stuck, and I started freaking out (Dad just bought it the day before). Until I pressed really hard and shot that kid in the face. It had so much pressure built up, that I almost blinded him.
I lol'd
I also had this. I was the shortest kid on the block, but I always had the better gun. hah.

Wow the second picture, that's the one I had long ago! Holy batman memories.
Used it to spray my neighbours car when he left his window down. Didn't turn up to well with the parents and got a beating after that

what the heck????....you mean they had better ones that came with a backpack so you wouldn't have to run to the hose?.
i remember having one,would use the hell out of it.....so much a clear plastic hose line inside broke but my dad ripped it apart and super glued it back together,getting it to work again
would push the trigger and water would come out the handle then it got fixed

Doesn't the water park at Stanley Park have a big water fight every year?
