The replacement for the
Super Soaker XP 75, the Super Soaker XP 70 has some definite improvements over its predacessor. The XP 70
has a separate pressure chamber making it easier to pump and shoot as well as
being able to be filled while pressurized. Its small size also makes this a
great weapon for covert operations though its original bright-yellow colour
does not help. The water reservoir nicely slopes to the back allowing all water
to be used. Pumping is quick and easy. Even with an XP-class nozzle, this weapon
still packs a good punch. The reservoir comes with a tethered cap to prevent
its loss.
Due to its small size, the Super Soaker XP 70 makes a great side-arm. The main problem is that this
blaster can quickly drain its resources (not quite as fast as the CPS-models
can, but pretty close). This weapon is great for any small to medium skirmishes
and would provide a good back-up in larger water wars. Do note that it is still classified as a
small calibre weapon.
Pros
Small,
light, easy to carry. Despite its size, it packs decent power. It also does
not take too much effort to pump up the pressure chamber. The tank provides
a respectable amount of water considering its rate of fire. Easy to fill with
a nice, tethered cap and transparent water reservoir.
Cons
This is a rather small weapon with limited water capacity. The XP-class nozzle
is outclassed by all of the CPS-line of weapons.
