Toothpick Crossbows or Mini-Crossbows?

Double posted one of the links, but in other words what happened was parents in China complained then made a crackdown happen. So that most of the sellers/manufacturers of this thing has been taken out, as well as ebay listening to them and closing most of it. They've ruined it for the rest of us in other words that don't live over there who want to buy one.

Accidentally killed my cat with one. Getting rid of the body was a total nightmare.

You don't accidentally kill something by aiming at it.

>>6493142
Oh be quiet. Had no idea it could sling a nail with that much force.

>>6493026
ah, these look neat, but too big for any action figure i own.

Way too big for any 1/12 figure if you don't have a precise idea. Same problem with standard fidget spinners. And I don't want to pay 13$ for something that yesterday was 1$.

Probably I will buy 10 fidget spinner per 10$ sooner or later, because you never know.

Which one of the two ebay links are the better one?

>>6493616
NEvermind I didn't realize one was just arrows and one was the crossbow. I'd get it if both combined were $10

>China is banning something because it's unsafe

Holy shit, you know it's gotta be bad. Now I really want one.

I ordered these gachapon crossbows a few days ago. They're plastic and subject to some safety standards unlike the chink ones but still fire projectiles a decent distance and look/scale better with figures

might be a little too big for most small figures https://twitter.com/stasto_info/status/849513489177694209

>>6493916
It's a tad modern but could go well as a Scorpion for 3.75 scale

>>6493865
well.. someone in here already killed their pet cat with one

>next autism toy is mini weapon capable of killing a cat

Terrifying.

>>6493131
This is why autists are dangerous.

Now I wanna buy one. Fuck cats

Neat but obviously dangerous.
Why is op such a fag?

Greentext please?

What happens when China makes a miniature toy version of its most lethal weapon of two millenia. Surely they will downgrade the force, since the original could shoot an arrow clean through an armored man from 100 yards.
>Despite its tiny size, a toothpick launched by the crossbow is powerful enough to pierce an aluminum can from 20 to 66 feet, according to toy packaging shown in a video by China's state broadcaster CCTV.
Oh.

Thanks for the heads up OP, desk toys are always fun.

It's all fun until someone loses an eye

>>6501396
How'd you dispose of the body? Did you cut its limbs off and throw them away individually in different trash cans? Or did you just bury it?

>>6501236
It (probably) never happened.

>>6501381
>Powerful enough to pierce an aluminum can from 20 to 66 feet

You just make me buy 3 of them

where's the nightmare?

The two ebay listings got taken down, not even 'adults' can have them.

>>6507402
Shit...

Fucking chinks, what the fuck they were even thinking?

>>6507402
DO NOT KILL CAT

oh great, neckbeards are going to start shooting toothpicks in to my neck

>>6507402
Just look up mini crossbow, do lowest price and shipping for the filter, scroll a few pages and you'll find a listing. It's not rocket science. I just ordered a black one, silver is out of stock. $13.

Just bought one for 13 from Cali, will post results when I get it.

Seems like ebay sellers are starting to use the good old "brass knuckles loophole" and are allowed to sell them if they call them paperweights or decoration.

>>6494062
I'd buy one. I have at least 2 gophers in my backyard about the size of guinea pigs

>>6493026
Looks like they can still be had. They're just being sold as something else. Sort of. It reminds me of brass knuckles being sold as paper weights..

WILL KILL CAT

Try hitting a rat, toad or large cockroach with it?

>>6509849
If it killed a CAT it will kill a RAT

>Inb4 someone shoots an eye or windpipe

Fidget spinners claimed a life and they're fucking harmless.

But can it kill the BAT?

Got mine, came with two sets of spring steel, two cords and a shitload of singletipped toothpicks.

It can pierce a cardboard box pretty with just one of the springsteels on it, I wouldn't wanna get hit with it with both on.

Even came with a little folding stand to rest it on.

>>6516229
Have you tried it on a cat?

>>6516242
Not yet

>>6502142
>>6501381
I was like "okay, so it can piece an aluminum can, so what? soda cans are so thin." Well, turns out this fucking thing can piece a FULL UNOPENED soda can. God damn. These Japanese soda bottles are thicker and more sturdy than your average American soda can as well.

I now firmly believe these things are absurdly dangerous.

I wonder if you can commit sudoku with them?

>>6516699
Are you cat?

>>6516842
Why is everyone so obsessed with the idea of shooting cats with these things? Frankly, I'm more intrigued about the potential they have to lodge a toothpick in someone's jugular.

>>6516890
People will just keep repeating to make it a new /toy/ meme because of the second post
