This is correct. As you know, I've been hinting for some time Will is interested in expanding the BA line-up beyond firing weapons, and this item represents the start of several household-based items Will has planned. Will's never been happy with the oversized nature of most of the Scala accessories and hopes to attract a wider group of builders with these new, gentler accessories.

Good luck with the building!

Nope, there isn't.

I take it that this was the main driving force for this idea? (No offense Mrs. Chapman!)

Anyway, I'm going to enter! Will the Blowdryer be available in an upcoming Mold, or will it be a one-off thing like the Medic?

Edit: Uh, oh... Is this an April Fool's Day joke? :(

Hmmm, an interesting idea for a contest, but a unique challenge I have never faced before. I must now face a deadly new enemy... the hair dryer! I hope this isn't an April fools day joke!

I never thought of that because in England it's now 5 minutes to 9, at night.

I'll build a vig but i think it might be an April Fools day joke because it seems silly.

Sorry but I`m getting a little suspicious about this "hair dryer". Its a little ironic to announce this on April Fools Day. On the flipside my birthdays in 15 days!

Does anyone have bad feeling of a April Fools Day joke? Any ways is this "hairdryer" a limited addiition item or is it in Mold 3?

Unfortunately, the Blowdryer didn't make it into Mold #3, as it was replaced by the MP7 at the last minute. However, I'm happy to announce that approximately half of Mold #4 (this number is subject to change) will be composed of household items, including the Blowdryer.

I'll take a MP7 over a hair dryer anyday.
