What It Is
Those hot summer soak fests are about to get a whole lot wetter!
Ohio Art has unleashed the a.r.m. 4000XL Aquatic Revenge Machine
on the water fighting arena, and its one serious—and
fun—piece of equipment.
The a.r.m. is a water gun that straps on to one arm and is
attached to a Water-Pack backpack that holds up to 2 liters
of water. It looks a lot like a robotic arm and should score
big points for the intimidation factor when going up against
kids with “ordinary” water guns.
But here’s why it’s so cool – the water gun
has a Water Biceptor that you attach to your upper arm, you
fill the Water Biceptor with water from the pack by pumping
your arm then pull the trigger and release a blast of water
that stretches up to thirty feet and lasts for up to thirty
seconds. That’s a powerful pump! It’s like having
a portable hose and water supply wherever the water gun battle
takes you.

Why It’s Fun
When it comes to water guns, it’s all about getting wet,
or getting someone else wet. And nothing soaks your friends,
or enemies, like the a.r.m. The creative one-arm feature means
you have a free hand for climbing or holding a shield while
soaking someone else at the same time.
Moreover, the a.r.m. helps kids overcome one of the big drawbacks
of those powerful water guns. Smaller kids generally have
a hard time working the pump, running and taking on opponents.
The a.r.m. is so well designed that any kid who can bend his
or her elbow can make it work.
Who’s Going To Love It
Well, sure kids in the target age range are going to love
it. But we think that it’s going to be a hit with college
kids as well…and not a few grown-ups.
What To Be Aware Of
The a.r.m. attaches to your arm with various straps and adjusts
to your arm’s length by extending or retracting the trigger
section. Even fully retracted may be too large for kids under
the recommended age.
Water is heavy, so make sure that kids are able to carry the
pouch when it’s full.
Oh, and this is an outdoor toy.
