Arctic Shock box art


Just saw this today- box art for the upcoming Super Soaker Arctic Shock. I love the aesthetics of this water gun but the issue of the lack of trigger still grates me. Ice cubes were also a novel idea but I dunno if they EVER really took off- even back in the old days of the original Arctic Shock- but at least you've got a large capacity water tank!

Cheers Neil for the heads up:)

  1. Freeze your friends? Somehow I don't think they'll like me if I freeze them in the dead of winter.

    Oh wait. Australia. Yeah, it should be plenty warm there this time of year, huh?

    1. I don't think the ice is going to make much of a difference. Here in Australia, I think the heat will melt the ice very quickly. Anyway, it'd be more fun to modify a clip with a hydration pack (like your endless Thunderstorm) and then put ice in THAT.

  2. The only problem:no trigger sounds great

  3. Freeze your friends? More like piss off your friends ever more. :D

    Still, I'm waiting for Nerf to bring back air pressured super soakers. A clip fed Shotblast-like thing would be beast!

  4. That Super Soaker X-Treme logo at the top-right. Pretty much Elite Super Soaker, I guess...?

  5. I would really just like to get the clip since thats what makes it have the whole "actic shock" slogan. slap that clip in a better super soaker and THEN you will have something awesome.
