“This toy blaster makes and launches softball-sized snowballs up to 50′, allowing rapid, long-range assaults during neighborhood snowball confrontations. Simply place snow in the forming chamber and close the lid, and it packs three perfectly spherical snowballs.

Because the blaster is powered by elastomers instead of batteries, it provides uninterrupted, fast-action play.” w/ photo
