Its Back! Dr. Grordbort re-releases the Pomson 6000 Raygun!

Its Back! Dr. Grordbort re-releases the Pomson 6000 Raygun!: "

After a previous release and then mysterious disappearance (was it those nefarious Moon-Men who purloined the Pomson?), Dr.Grordbort’s is pleased to re-release the Mighty Pomson 6000 Sub Atomic Wave Gun!





Dr.Grodbort’s boffins have this to say:



“Blasting out rapid-succession pulses of cross-spectrum electromagnetic radiation, the Pomson has been shown to dissolve an Egyptian pyramid in four archeologically educational weeks or one of the smaller, slightly crappier Mayan ones in just under a fortnight. Imagine what it could do to that big ugly Mars face! On a more practical level, however, the Pomson has proven to be a highly flexible yet powerful firearm and purchasers are sure to wake up each morning with morning wood at the mere thought of owning one. That could also be a tumourous growth caused by unshielded radiation, but you can’t sue us for that because it’s in the contract. Sod off.”



So head over to Dr. Grordbort’s Aether Space and check it out – Lower price, Too!
