Sheldon's Introduction
Ah, the Custom Blaster! To call it a customized Blaster would be accurate, but that doesn't tell the whole story. And we need the whole story, don't we? Made with official Blaster parts, the Custom Blaster is best suited for ranged combat. Use the Point Sensor sub to mark your enemies for immediate demolition! If the other team DOES get too close for comfort, you've got the Triple Splashdown to hit them with three times the Splashdown! It's also a great way to ink turf. I recommend this powerful set to players who can't stand the sight of a single enemy on their home turf! |
