Post subject:  Water Squirters

I need an idea of what to use to replace the gun on my Eco-Warrior Swamp Masher and I want it to fit the water squirting gimmick. But I’d like to avoid using the Eco-Striker squirted so it can be unique. Therefore I’m asking if people could suggest some possibilities from outside what already exists in GI Joe. Any other lines that had something I could integrate?

Here’s a preview so far. I’m going to have to redo the yellow bits with something better because it’s too light for my taste.

The only thing I can think of are the Marvel Water Wars cannons, Spider Man and X-Men. Something with the plunger style like Night Crawler or Sentinel. But then you’d still have to figure out how to mount it.

I already love that Swampmasher, great idea!

Other toyline squirt stuff:

Briefly seen in action in this commercial:


Toy fire trucks with a water squirting feature are pretty common finds in yard sales or cheap stores. Shouldn't be too hard removing that feature and placing it on your vehicle.

Or if you find one with a useless nozzle you could place the hose into a drilled G.I.Joe cannon and the pump/squeeze part on the back of the Swampmasher.

I thought about the fire truck but that is definitely an in-person purchase. Too difficult to gauge size online. It may also require figuring out how to handle the water tank. Maybe a towable like the Roadtoad or even the Weapon Transport?

Getting closer, especially with that Casper figure. If there are any squirters that operate with a plunger mechanism that’d be nice to find too since that’s how the Eco Striker and Septic Tank are set up.

In other news I found a better yellow, so I’m mostly just a squirt away from finishing... right jm70?

Just found another thing: Transformers seemed to have a series of so called "Color Changers".

and

Looking at the pics in this auction it's some kind of push + squirt mechanism:

Sorry about that, I've been a little distracted...

So... until I figure out my squirting situation this is where she stands. Any suggestions? I might get a matte clear coat to cut down a bit of the gloss yellow.
