As I write this, I'm also making a list of all the people I could use my new Crossbow Launcher on. Lets see..there's my ex landlord, my eighth grade gym teacher, the cheerleader I asked to prom, all seventeen of my ex bosses, and my parole officer...

If the mere mention of the words “crossbow snowball launcher” don’t excite you, well, then you should probably stop reading this section. After loading a snowball into the launcher, you can sling the frozen sphere of destruction at enemies up to 60 feet away. Your little brother, cousin, nephew, or (soon-to-be-ex?) wife will never see it coming.

You can only load and shoot one snowball at a time, so the rate of fire isn’t anything special. There’s also the small matter of walking around your neighborhood with a crossbow, which might raise a few eyebrows. And good luck convincing your significant other that it isn’t a waste of money.

A waste? More like an investment! At $40, there’s no better way to pass the time this winter than by launching snowball after snowball with a mere squeeze of your trigger finger. A built-in press even simplifies the art of creating ammo.
