Featured Review: XP-150
The XP-150 is a first generation XP blaster. It was first released in 1994 with gray, red, blue, purple, and yellow colors. It was again released several years later with green, orange, and purple colors. The later model is often referred to as the XP-150 “Classic” by collectors. Read More
News and Updates
December 9, 2007: A new feature has been added to the home page. Aqua-Zone is taking it's best reviews and showcasing them in the Featured Review section. Expect the Featured Review to change every few months. At a Glance section completed and posted for the Super Charger and Monster series of Super Soakers. Another new Random Image has been added, AquaZone: Vice Soaker.
December 8, 2007: Aqua-Zone is prepared to enter 2008. Goals for this year include continued house cleaning of old/outdated content. I am happy with the "At a Glance" viewing for the Max-D, and CPS blasters, however I am not satisfied. I am looking into more ways to make the cumbersome Review database easier to navigate. All XP Reviews have finally been updated to reflect the current layout. The XP Backfire review has finally been reposted using the original review from my former Tripod website. New Random Picture uploaded of yours truly caught asleep.
July 3, 2007: Last month I renewed hosting for yet another year. This month is Aqua-Zone's sixth year of service for the Super Soaker enthusiast. Though the weather this summer has been a little mild for Long Island, I hope to have to have a battle or two this year.
February 26, 2007: Aqua-Zone is proud to announce a new development in this website. The drop down style review navigation is now supplemented by the "at a glance" feature. At a glance is great if you are not sure which blaster you have. At a glance is a table that displays images of all the blasters in that particular class as well as their year of issue, and if a detailed review is available. At a glance is currently only available for CPS Reviews. A Max-D version should be completed soon.
February 19, 2007: Water Warriors section has been deleted from the navigation menu. It served no point since it had no content. The archives section (including the News Archive) has been updated and scaled down.
September 22, 2006:Super Soaker Max Infusion Defender review has been posted. Check It Out
September 16, 2006:Super Soaker Max Infusion Defender has been purchased. The first new review in three years will be posted next week. Max Infusion/Soaker Tag Review Section has been created. I have decided to not list all blasters of the serie(s) simply because I am not interested in most of them.
September 11, 2006:Glitch fixed in Strategy & Tips Center that stopped DHTML menu from properly navigating through the website. Also, God Bless America
December 15, 2005:Getting the site ready for the year of 2006, I rewrote the "About" section, and plan on finally merging the Strategy Center and Advice Center by the close of the year. By the close of the year the Strategy Center and Advice Center will be consolidated and edited/updated. Expect other minor cosmetic changes throughout the website. UPDATE 5PM:The Strategy Center and Advice Center have been consolidated into the STRATEGY AND TIPS CENTER. All pages have updated to the new format. The overhaul was long overdue, some content has been revised to reflect modern times, and most errors on the pages have been corrected.
September 14, 2005:This website is over five years old. That is quite amazing, it is funny to think of the internet as that old. It is even more funny to think that I was going into 8th grade when I started this site. To be honest the website was horrible when I started, and to be honest while most things have been corrected since I started the site is probably still riddled with typos and other such errors. But in any case, SuperSoakers seem to have no future. SuperSoakers are the reason this site started, the SS-50 was found in nearly every home of an early or mid 90's kid. Child of the 90's funny to say. Growing up is an odd feeling. Well at any rate, I love this website. However my love of SuperSoakers is something that has not survived so well. I really have no time any more, let alone anyone to battle with. This website is a source for mainly late 90's and early 2000's Super Soakers. It has been obvious for sometime that it was. It was never my intention for that to happen. Year after year of horrible releases from Hasbro did that though. It is really quite depressing that Hasbro releases pure crap. I suppose this is just a rant to let you know I still care. I did change the contact page, I got rid of that form thing. I think it stopped working. Oh well. I am however planning on merging the Strategy Center and the Advice Center, I don't know why it took me three years to realize how redundant and confusing they are.
May 30, 2005: Hosting has been renewed! Aqua-Zone's will be around for another year, this July marks FIVE YEARS for Aqua-Zone.
May 14, 2005: Really random updates are being done, the Buying Guide has finally been reposted after about a two year hiatus. It is the original from around 2000, but it still carries a wealth of information. Also several SuperCharger/Monster pages have been updated to the new format (mainly the Monster's)
January 09, 2005:Homepage changed, first major change in almost two years. More changes are on the way design wise. Honestly though expect little content change. Main design changes will be to integrate this more with Frankism.net, the small but parent site of Aqua-Zone. Interactive Section has been formally closed.
