The Metal Sphere Shooter, also called the "multi-functional metal sphere shooter" or "multi-functional heavy metal weapon", was Dunkan Bulk's original weapon.
Later, he no longer uses it, having received new weapons, including a Missile Launcher, after the breakout, when Bulk went to do his part of Mission: Catch 'Em and Cuff 'Em.
Functionality
This weapon shoots very dense cobalt-nickel spheres at extremely high speeds. The weapon has a rapid-load mechanism, generating the ammunition from a compact memory wire. The Metal Sphere Shooter can fire up to 20 rounds per minute. The weapon also includes laser sights and guidance sensors for greater accuracy. A few spheres are shot in a light blue laser in one shot. The weapon itself is heavy, so only stronger heroes are comfortable using it as their primary weapon.
Example Usage
In Episode 1: Trials of Furno, Bulk used this weapon to fight back against XPlode and Rotor.
Set Information
The Metal Sphere Shooter is included as one piece in set 7168 Dunkan Bulk, released in late 2010. It is also included in set 7179 Bulk and Vapour, released in late 2010. The piece includes both the tool itself and Bulk's left hand. The piece is also Bulk's arm.
Trivia
- In the sets, the Metal Sphere Shooter is hollow and a part of Bulk's 1.0 left arm, and its tip is slated to the right. However, in the television episodes, it is not hollow, slated, or a part of Bulk's arm. It is made that way in the episodes to be realistic in the canon.
- In the television episodes, the Metal Sphere Shooter has four spheres in it rather than three for an unknown reason.
- In a prototype and concept art of set 7168, the Metal Sphere Shooter is Bulk's right arm.
