Costs approx. 472 Yen
This just happened to have popped up very suddenly, hah. (Thanks to Scourge for the notification.)

The winder for this Launcher is most likely the same one as the one from the Right Launcher 2, but it is slot into the Launcher horizontally.

Wow, thanks for the information. It looks quite interesting when you examine it properly. Also, I like the 'Snipe', sounds pretty cool, ha.
RE: BB-103 Snipe Launcher - KaizerMFB - Jan. 14, 2011
Looking forward to this...
Although I am getting Screw Capricorn....
heh.... Cool Silver finish
RE: BB-103 Snipe Launcher - Jellyboy - Jan. 14, 2011
Any release dates?
Hmmm, I wonder what this will do...
RE: BB-103 Snipe Launcher - Shika blade - Jan. 14, 2011
Cool! I wonder whats the power increase?
RE: BB-103 Snipe Launcher - machipz - Jan. 14, 2011
Retarted Light Launcher 2? Me likey.
Sonokong will probably release it with Killer Beafowl

RE: BB-103 Snipe Launcher - Ultra - Jan. 14, 2011
Isn't this just a slightly better light launcher 2? Anyway it looks better than the right launcher 2 to me.
RE: BB-103 Snipe Launcher - machipz - Jan. 14, 2011
Don't diss the Right Launcher 2. Anybody know if its possible that this will be released with Screw Capricorn as a starter right after the booster?
:V T'was a shame.

RE: BB-103 Snipe Launcher - Dan - Jan. 14, 2011
Why cant they just mod Beylaunchers? :\
Still wondering how it does, though.
RE: BB-103 Snipe Launcher - blah - Jan. 14, 2011
This looks so much better than the Right Launcher 2, I love it already. I don't mind if the power doesn't increase or anything though. [:
RE: BB-103 Snipe Launcher - machipz - Jan. 14, 2011
Well, they needed a longer handle. Chipz gave me an LL2 and it doesn't fit my hands :"(

Launchergrip says hi.
I wonder why it's called "Snipe". I dont see targeting reticles or anything.
RE: BB-103 Snipe Launcher - Furious - Jan. 14, 2011
Snipe Launcher? I like the sound of that.
Can't wait for it to come out!

OFF TOPIC Sorry

Another, bigger picture :

It looks like the part where the winder is inserted is somehow separated from the rest. Perhaps it can be rotated ? Considering the prongs are on the rest of the launcher though, I do not see what that would do.

If that's the case, this is useful for those who want to keep their launch parallel to the Stadium, but find it uncomfortable to pull perfectly horizontally. When you kneel down as you normally should, the issue I'm describing is more obvious.
This would be such a cool Launcher, haha.

Oh yeah, of course. I never thought about this, but yeah, it would be a good and logical function for this to have.
I guess we are really just speculating and working on assumptions at this point, but I would be really fascinated to see the interior mechanisms of this if that part could actually be rotated.
RE: BB-103 Snipe Launcher - Kai-V - Jan. 14, 2011
In my opinion there could be a blocking mechanism to stop the rotating part from being rotated too much. In the description of this item, they considerably mentioned "right users".

RE: BB-103 Snipe Launcher - Serotonin - Jan. 14, 2011
I thought so, but I'm wondering how it could be rotated then. I'm probably just being dumb with visualising it all, haha.
RE: BB-103 Snipe Launcher - Proto Man - Jan. 14, 2011
Wow thats interesting. Thanks Diamond!
