Pretty sure we had the E9112 and E9116 back in the day. Now I have a legit B92FS but it doesn't squirt water. For work reasons.
Ah, nostalgia. (Don't play with guns!)

They changed that because a cop shot a kid.
Now they just shoot em for fun.
I remember being upset the first time I saw a toy gun with an orange tip and complaining it took away from the coolness about it. Then my dad told me what happened, why, and how the tip is good to not give cops any reason to shoot kids.
And now the cops that are now the age my dad was then and younger who were alive and aware of the reason for the change all those years ago see the orange tip and shoot the kids anyway. Then kill their dogs too.
