 * Delete. Non-notable. Keep the cleaned up article. utcursch | talk 04:29, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I've heard about the game, although not by the same name. The players use fake weapons to kill their fellow players. The game moderator gives them their target and a time limit. I'd be happy to see this merged into an article about the game, if someone can track it down. - Mgm|(talk) 22:18, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep but improve. I have heard of both the game and the toy (it is indeed a popular "weapon" for the game of killer, or was in my youth).  It is a common enough kind of toy that it should have its own article. You can find a picture of the toy here (beware pop-up ad) and here.  They are basically toy guns that shoot small plastic disks that fly frisbee-style. Crypticfirefly 03:36, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Furthermore, this page has been in existance for ONE DAY. It isn't utter nonsense, give it a chance to develop. Crypticfirefly 03:38, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
 * keep please this article is only one day old and it is a real toy not something fake so we could keep it because it is verifiable and neutral too Yuckfoo 04:22, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, the rewrite needs some extra wikification and a fixed template, but other than that it looks fine. Can you add some references/sources to it? - Mgm|(talk) 05:09, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Doing what I can, but short of consulting a reference book on collectible toys it isn't easy. (Not available at the moment.) I'll admit that I started from memory, but the various pictures of these things for sale on eBay in their original packaging gave me some clues. Trying to get a picture.

 * Keep and expand. Hipocrite - &laquo; Talk &raquo; 14:20, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
