Sheldon's Introduction

The Custom Jet Squelcher is a customized Jet Squelcher made with official parts! It boasts great range, and you can lay the splat down on enemies that get too close with the included Burst Bombs! Use the Sting Ray to deal with anyone out of the range of your main weapon. I recommend keeping your distance with this set.

Sheldon's Introduction

The Custom Jet Squelcher is no off-the-rack Jet Squelcher. It's custom! But it's still made with high-quality official parts. And this set now comes with the Toxic Mist sub, which helps make up for the main weapon's lower fire rate and firepower by bogging down your enemies in, well, toxic mist. Meanwhile, toss the Ink Storm special out there when you can, and it'll be like splatting fish in a barrel for your teammates. Master this set, and it'll be a one-sided battle, with you on the winning side!

And here we have the Custom Jet Squelcher, which is a Jet Squelcher with a special, limited-edition nozzle color. Slow down your enemies with the Poison Mist sub, and then let 'em have it from long range with your main. And to REALLY bog 'em down, unleash the Ink Storm special!
