At first, I didn't get the appeal of this toy, the Zero Blaster, which shoots smoke rings basically.
But then I gave it to my "focus group," the neighborhood kids -- after all, they're the target group -- and they loved it. They practice making bigger rings and especially have fun with it at night, when it glows . The vapor rings can go up to 12 feet, but my testers say you really have to practice. It comes with its special, water-based non-toxic fuel, which you can reorder on the site. With its ray-gun type sound effects, it's by far the most peaceful gun in the universe. Let's replace all Smith and Wessons with Zero Blasters.

New Zero Blaster is $19.95 at Zero Toys.
