Customizable Water Blaster
Invented by 14-year old Kevin Lim
 

At age 14, Kevin wanted a paintball gun but his mother wouldn’t let him have one. One of the main features of the paintball gun he liked was how you could change the parts almost anyway you wanted. He searched in the open market for a powerful water gun that had customizable features and components similar to the paintball kind. 

Kevin set out on his own to design a water blaster with a wide variety of changeable parts so that each time you play it seems like you have a brand new water shooter. He combined construction play with outdoor fun! His design starts with a base water unit that includes several interchangeable functional and cosmetic parts including nozzles, blasters, hoses, side panels and other features and parts. Kids can then embellish their blasters further when they buy additional parts in add-on packs.

Kevin’s Customizable Water Blaster allow kids to role play many different heroic characters with a coordinated look for every storyline or competition. Additionally, it feels like you have a new blaster toy every time you play. Dreams do come true.
