When answering the poll please take the following into consideration:
If you were in a shop and you saw the Arctic Blast and the Flash Flood at the same price which one would you get.
Based on the amount of power and range each blaster has.

Super Soaker Flash Flood vs Arctic Blast Comparison
From the stats measured, the Flash Flood has a slightly larger firing chamber but slightly smaller reservoir. The Arctic Blast had slightly more output on the 'Flood' nozzle, but since the PC is less, its overall full drenching capability per full shot is less. I personally like the styling of the original Flash Flood better, but the orange Max-Infusion Flash Flood has the ability to accept the additional Aqua Pack reservoir extension. I'd lean slightly more towards the Flash Flood from an aesthetics point-of-view, but it's really a coin toss overall, IMO. Then again, why get just one when you can get both!

From what I know, the FF performance is better overall, with more range and less spread on the flood. (its main nozzle isn't even as small as the AB's, though they're both pretty small) And of course, the FF, when colored properly, looks much better.

I think the Flash Flood is better, they are both very similar water guns however. In terms of range, power, etc. the differences are very slight and not big enough to make a real difference. I think the Flash Flood looks better, and the Arctic Blasts' gimmick "ice cubes in the reservoir" is useless...

I would choose the FF, I have both, and I hardly use my AB
