Nerf Super Soaker XP100 Review
March 7, 2020Hasbro is leaning hard on nostalgia this year. Across several properties, whether they’re Star Wars action figures or Tiger Electronics games, what’s old is new again. In the case of Super Soakers, that involves a redesign and recoloring of classic designs from deep in the Hasbro vault, and releasing as a Target exclusive. After finally getting my hands on one, I can say that it doesn’t quite hold up to childhood memories. But then again what does? It performs similarly to the original, after all. It’s just the difference between seeing one at five years old, and thirty years old.
Editor’s Note: On Hiatus
February 29, 2020To make a long story short, a death in the immediate family tends to suck the joy out of everything. I’ll be back at some point to continue posting reviews and news (and other authors with access are also free to continue posting). I just don’t know when that will be.
I do hope to see all of you again soon.

Even so, we can highlight the best things there, and what we’re looking forward to seeing!
