The “Classic Series” was ofcourse never officially called the classics by Larami. It is a name given by collectors since Larami just used the Super Soaker brand name and the model number for blasters before the advent of the XP series. The Super Soaker brand traces its roots back to 1989 when the “Power Drencher” was released. The following year the Power Drench was renamed to Super Soaker 50. The Super Soaker 100 is the first blaster I ever owned, my parents bought it for me when I was in kindergarten. Compared to Larami’s later products like the XP line and CPS line the classics are very antiquated. They are fragile blasters and they lack the power of later blasters. Despite their frailty and low power some classics are still worth using. I find myself using a SS-100 at times because you can go a while without having to refill the blaster. The MDS is also useful because it is the only blaster with a swivel nozzle. The majority of classics are best kept as museum pieces and most are now very hard to find.*equals detailed review
Before Super Soaker
What did Larami do before Super Soakers? Well one thing was that they manufactured rubber play turtles. When I was a little one I received these turtles. I enjoyed playing sea adventure games with them and not until I began collecting Super Soakers did I make a startling discovery. One day I saw one of them just hanging around and I picked it up to enjoy a bit of nostalgia. On the back I discovered they had the Larami logo! So check it out and enjoy.
