Product Description
The Aquashock Arctic blaster gives you more than one way to shock and surprise your opponents: soak them in a stream or add ice to blast them with an all-out burst of freezing cold water. The air-powered water blaster lets you add ice to unleash an ice-cold flood. It can hit targets up to 35' away with a 40 ounce water-supply capacity.

4 out of 5 stars cool gunz   October 1, 2008
Jeffrey E. Chao
I've only tested it a bit. A bit bulkier than expected but very cool mechanics. Has regular shot and a 2ndary valve to shoot out a blast of water using the rest of your pressurized air. I can forsee the pump handle breaking in the future after having too much stress applied, I can already notice a piece of the plastic in the rod becoming stressed a lot.


4 out of 5 stars A Mediocre watergun   July 31, 2008
John Williams
The supersoaker Arctic Blast has good output and power given its size but thats not saying much. Its main nozzle is practically useless, and cannot even reach the range of 35 feet even if I pump 50 times. The Flood nozzle, however, more than makes up for that. This riot blast makes this gun unmatched in close quarter combat. However,this watergun cannot compete with anything more potent than a CPS 1000, although it supersedes all present day blasters, save the Water Warriors Orca, and Tiger Shark. It is best used in close quarter combat, although pumping can get difficult. To give you a good idea of how this supersoaker performs, here is something simply put: A person with a Sneak Attack can keep out of range and drench you while you're still pumping. However, all in all, its not a bad watergun, although by no means is it a phenomenal one. If you see it on sale, you should buy it.


2 out of 5 stars Great Fun, if you can make it last more than 2 days....   July 19, 2008

I love this gun's features. I work at Jurassic Park in Universal Studios and I was using this gun to shoot at the people in the boat. The stream shoots very far, so far in fact I was able to reach across the track and hit the Loaders whom I work with. You can use the stream or REALLY surprise people with the cannon blast. Ice and really cold water play an extra feature in it's fun capability.

The ONLY problem I have with this gun, and it's a major one, is that the trigger does not last long at all. The 1st gun was purchased at Toys R Us. I took the gun to work the very next day. All day I had been using it to wet people and towards the end of the day, the trigger did not spring back. Instead it sunk it and never came out. I could only shoot people if I continued to pump the handle, but it only came out as a small stream as if the valve was stuck on "open". I took the gun home, dismantled it, and found that a spring had broken off and not only that but a plastic hook that was used to keep the spring in place, had broken off as well. There was no way to fix it unless you had a power drill, screws and some knowledge of how the gun works. The 2nd gun was purchased at a Target and once again I took it to work. The difference is that this time the gun lasted 2 days until once again, the trigger broke. You can hear the small pieces rattling around inside. I took both guns back and got my refund. I'm sorry to say that I personally don't endorse this gun unless you want to throw away $19.99 each time. True this gun is made out of plastic parts, so what can you expect? I'll wait until they come out with the next generation of soakers and put those to the test. Have a fun summer everyone.

Can't get better than this for 20 dollars. It has a pretty decent reservoir and there is NO leakage. You can keep it the car to soak the unexpecting and not worry about anything getting wet.

It has two firing options. The first is what you would expect, the single stream, which shoots a really good distance. Then though, the BIG shot. The top has a shotgunesque release that will let out a ton of water in a short wide spray. This is what makes the gun so great.

It also features a wide opening for the water so that you can add ice cubes. Also, be sure to note that the usual righty-tighty lefty-loosey mentality will not work when opening the reservoir, it's opposite for some reason.
