Christmas Gadget Gift Guide: Crossbow Snow Launcher & Triple Snowball Blaster

The Gadget Helpline is here to help you with the annual nightmare that comes when trying to find that ideal present for someone special this Christmas! We’ve taken a sneak peak into Santa’s workshop to deliver you with our top tips for great gadget gifts and terrific tech toys in time to bring a smile to someone’s face on the big day!

We’d be dreaming of a White Christmas if we knew for sure that this week’s Christmas Gadget Gift Guide goodies were waiting under the tree on Christmas morning. Introducing first – the Crossbow Snow Launcher!

Despite not requiring a power source, the patented Crossbow Snow Launcher is undeniably a fantastic and powerful gadget none-the-less. Simply load a suitable amount of snow into the provided snowball press and you can mould your perfect ammo – three at a time. Once you have perfectly formed and tightly packed frozen bombs, they get placed it into the Launcher. Pull back and fire at the provided vinyl target – or throw away that toy and reign down a blizzard of pain on the nearest foe!

Designed with all the ergonomics calculated to guarantee ease-of-use and maximum tension as well as featuring a power-wrist support handle the lethal Launcher can power a snowball over up to 60 feet (16 meters) picking off n00bs while they’re left balling up yellow snow in their mittens!

If you want something a bit more fast-paced, you could of course try the Triple Snowball Blaster! This one delivers three shots up to 80 feet, with a slingshot mechanism unloading your balls in rapid-fire succession. Blast your victim with a face full of the white stuff with no comeback!

Both the Crossbow Snow Launcher and Triple Snowball Blaster are available from the States from The Sharper Image for $39.99 and $29.99 respectively and the Triple Snowball Blaster is also available in the UK through FireBox costing £23.99 with free delivery!

In last week’s Christmas Gadget Gift Guide we featured the appBlaster – an ingenious combination of Apple iPhone, Augmented Reality software and physically active toy!
