I’ve had two of these over the course of my life! Got them both from a theme park (I think it was Universal Studios, but it may have been Disney World). They were chunky black handheld machines with super long rainbow ropes to “shoot”. There was even an LED light at the top edge of the rope hole, so when you shoot it in the dark, the whole rope looks like it’s glowing. My favorite part, by far, was shooting it up and bouncing it on my hand whenever gravity brought it down slowly. I still have one of them somewhere, and it’s wonderful fun, even now that I’m an adult! 10/10 do recommend.

I got one from Disneyland when I was a kid! I was looking to see if someone had commented with the same experience. Those things were so cool; I have no idea what happened to mine!

My experience with them was going to Disneyland and wanting one. "No."

That was the end of that.
