“It took quite literally hundreds of prototypes, but in the end it was worth it. Wearing this, using it and just seeing people’s reactions, you really feel like a hero,” said Jacob Uy, Founder of HEROTECH. “This new model builds on everything we learned from the previous version and our experience inventing other gadgets,” he added.

To show how the thread shooter watch works, they released an instructional video on their YouTube channel with over 300,000 subscribers.

The MAGNUS MKII is available on their website. Retailing at $427, preorders ship in October of this year. HEROTECH offers a lifetime warranty and free worldwide shipping on all orders.
