PYRO：「メラゾーマ！」

“丟火球”這種單純的超能力,在近年來內容設定愈發誇張的動漫作品中,
似乎已經不再那麼令人感到驚豔,但若真的出現在現實生活中,應該仍是十分酷炫!
根據自はちま起稿看到的消息,有一間名為ELLUSIONIST的企業,
不但已經確實開發出了這種”丟火球”裝置,甚至…..還只賣174美元!
炎系超級英雄的門檻終於降低了!(衝)

(以下內容引述自PYRO官方介紹)
…..Comprehensive Instructional
It is a condition of purchase that you watch the PYRO instructional in its entirety,
prior to operating your unit. Adam Wilber goes over the safety precautions,
correct operation and performance ideas for this device.
We’ve given you multiple ideas to get you started –
but the possibilities are truly endless.
PYRO is a true utility device that opens up a new and exciting side to your magic…..
….Multiple Shot Capability
Each PYRO unit comes with 4 individually triggered barrels,
meaning you can shoot off 4 fireballs before a reload is required.
We highly recommend you use only the Flash Packs we supply and recommend,
with each pack containing enough flash cotton and paper for over 60 uses…..
…..Handsfree Operation
The PYRO Unit itself has been designed to contour to the underside of the wrist,
leaving the hand shooting the fireball completely empty.
The supplied fastener allows the sleeve to hide the unit,
while keeping out of the way of the flaming shots.
The remote switch has been designed to fit comfortably and discretely in the other hand,
activated with a squeeze of the fist.
Small and light enough to sit in a pocket when not in use without you –
or your spectators – noticing it’s there…..
…..Rugged & Reliable
As soon as you open the box and feel the unit yourself,
you can feel the quality and level of R&D that has gone into the production of this device.
Over two years of refinements and seven prototypes,
both PYRO Unit and the Remote have gone through hell and back,
pressure and temperature stressed every individual component –
from heater coil though to remote receiver and cycle tested through to failure,
to guarantee performance and longevity of the final unit. What you have after all of this,
is a device that both Ellusionist and Adam Wilber are proud to stand behind…..
…..Fully Guaranteed
PYRO comes with an end to end, 60 day full replacement warranty.
While we’re confident that if the directions are followed you will not have any issues with the unit,
those that may arise can easily be troubleshooted. PYRO’s creator,
Adam Wilber, stands behind each and every unit sold.
If for any reason your unit stops functioning,
Adam has made himself available to answer questions and walk you through any common issues personally.
If after speaking to Adam your unit still does not function,
simply return it within 60 days of purchase for a replacement unit at no cost to you…..

根據該公司的介紹,開發此裝置耗時約2年,經歷了7個試作品,
目前販售版本以電池運作,裝填一次可以發射4枚火球,射程約30英尺,
控制開關則是與發射器本體分離、以握拳按壓的方式啟動;
雖然不知道有沒有投保產品意外險,但提供60天的換新服務….
感覺還是有點危險,可是實在太酷了,令人心癢難耐啊! ww

火再怎麼說危險性還是比較大,倘若這次的產品銷量足夠,
不曉得該公司日後會否在”PYRO”的基礎上開發其他類型產品呢?
例如相對低傷害程度的”蛛絲發射器(web shooter)”或小叮噹的”空氣砲”等,
畢竟可能是基於安全性考量,”PYRO”目前要18歲以上方可購買,
這樣真正的中二病患者根本不在目標客群內呀 XD
