Several years ago in an average kid’s home the standard issue was the XP-70. It represented power at a price mom and dad wouldn’t mind. The XP-70 makes a decent backup or sidearm or even main weapon in some situations. This guy is the smallest blaster to feature a separate firing chamber. Its firing chamber and reservoir are blue with a yellow body. It holds a decent amount of water, but it can quickly be wasted. I much more recommend the XP-270 its bigger and better cousin released in 2000. By 2002 it was replaced by the Max-D 5000 which is arguably not as powerful. Basically the XP-70 has found its way to the category of antiquated soakers, but it's still nice to have. Production of the XP-70 stopped in 1999 and the last time I saw one on shelf was May 2000. The XP-70 is an average blaster with no radical features or designs overshadowed by a sea of other cooler more eye catching options.
Fighting with the XP-70
A perfect scout weapon or for medium back up.
Fighting against the XP-70While it may be small it can still damage you keep away from it until it runs out of pressure frag the user while he’s pumping. Or pick off the user from afar.
