I saw this today at Target (at Prince Georges Plaza in Maryland). I dont have much info on it but heres what I know:

-A bit larger than a Big Salvo

Yeah thats about it.

I have no idea what kind of potential this might have. Could anyone please shed some light to this new comer. Has anyone else seen it? I've searched the site and didnt find any info on this.

At one point it was called the Wayne Tech Tri-Fire Blaster. This is a thread by Twitch about the gun, including ranges and a mod.

I've got a random question...

What exactly is a 'Grapnel?'

And why is all this Batman crap coming out, but wasn't even in the movie at all. Get me a replica of the Grappling hook or that sticky bomb gun.

I get all giddy when I see VACC browsing a stupid topic. I just know someone is going to get banned.

This is the sticky-bomb gun. They're just calling it the grapnel for some safety concerns, probably.

Also, I'm pretty sure grapnel is grappel spelled right.

Alice came to the fork in the road.
"Which road do I take?" she asked.
"Where do you want to go?" responded the Cheshire cat.
"I don't know," Alice answered.
"Then," said the cat, "it doesn't matter."

The little critters of nature, they don't know that they're ugly. That's very funny, a fly marrying a bumble bee. I told you I'd shoot, but you didn't believe me. Why didn't you believe me?

Sorry, I always thought it was referred to as a grapple.

It is. There are quite a few synonyms.

I bought one a while ago. It has... potential.

I took it apart, plugged the OPRV and added various barrels. I'm not really sure what I did wrong, but it shot the darts about as far as the huge missile: 20 feet or less.

I haven't seen Twitch's mod, maybe I forgot something.

Anyway, if you're fairly experienced, go ahead and buy it. The internals are really complicated (ie, you have to pull the trigger to change barrels) but I didn't mess with any of that.

And on a completely different track, I love how rediculous the gun looked. The way it expands and the light and scope pop up flashing different lights is just totally lol.
