rAge Expo 2023 is here and we were on the ground for the first day looking at the coolest things to spend your money on.

While rAge is known for many things like cosplay, playing games on the show floor, the LAN and other such attractions, it is also a place to buy some cool stuff you may not be able to find elsewhere.

Gel blasters are incredibly powerful, accurate and the ammo for them – very similar to the Orbeez that were a fad for a while a few years ago – is dirt cheap. Triskelion Crystals and Oils, the merchant selling these in Hall 2, explained that the statues are made from a solid block of material which is machined away. This leads to a lot of wastage, which accounts for some of the price of these small display items.

Not only was it incredibly fun to use such mundane items as ammo, but the accuracy of these guns is really impressive. You can actually pay R50 to shoot the guns in a contest to win some prizes and, while we didn’t take up this challenge, we did hit every target in the small shooting range with the rubber band gun on display.
