Ellusionist has released the ultimate cosplay accessory—the Pyro Fireshooter, which allows you to literally shoot fireballs from your hands thanks to a $174 gadget that is “definitely not a toy.”
The device uses a small battery-operated wristband that uses flash cotton and flash paper to give the illusion of flinging fireballs from your bare hands.
It goes without saying that you should probably not ever bring anything like this anywhere remotely close to a convention, but for backyard shenanigans, photoshoots, and those times where you just want to unleash your inner Sailor Mars, it’s pretty cool.
Check out the Ellusionist website for videos and a full overview.
