Hero Charger Replica

The Hero Charger Replica is a Charger Main Weapon in Splatoon.

Visually, it is based off of the Hero Charger found in Octo Valley, but stats-wise it is identical to the Splat Charger.

Hero Charger from Octo Valley
The Hero Charger is not available during regular Octo Valley but can be used at the amiibo stand in Inkopolis Plaza with an Inkling Girl amiibo. When using this Amiibo, the player is given the chance to go through some of the previous Octo Valley levels that they have beaten and replay them using a Charger rather than a Shooter.

Description
When the blueprints are obtained and given to Sheldon in Ammo Knights, he will give the player the Replica as he cannot copy the technology shown on the blueprints. Even though it looks like the Hero Charger, it has the same stats and weapon set of the Splat Charger.

The Hero Charger looks slightly similar to the real life M16 Rifle, an iconic weapon and the standar service rifle for many armies in the world; however, the M16 is an assault rifle rather than a sniper rifle.

"A sweet replica created by Sheldon from his grandfather's blueprints. It looks funky fresh, to be sure, but apparently it’s just a regular Splat Charger with a fancy paint job."

"Created by Sheldon from his grandfather's blueprints. It looks pretty cool, but apparently it’s just a regular Splat Charger under that paint job..."
