They are legal. * New York City requires that all realistic toy or imitation firearm be made of clear or brightly colored plastics; furthermore, New York City makes possession of any air pistol or air rifle or similar instrument in which the propelling force is a spring or air, unlawful without a license. See New York City Administrative Code § 10-131(b) and New York City Administrative Code § 10-131(g)(1)(a)[3]. The rest of New York State is unaffected by these laws, and there are no state regulations limiting or prohibiting airsoft. * Michigan restricts the purchase of these guns so that they may only be purchased from a licensed retailer. Black Market retailers are also a source for purchasing airsoft guns in Michigan. * Texas allows Airsoft guns to be owned but most cities require that the Airsoft guns be discharged only while outside city limits.

Check with local officials before trying to construct, or purchase, an RC Airsoft tank. Airsoft was banned in Australia because the guns look like real firearms. As for the legality of a non-replica projectile launcher that happens to fire plastic BB's, my research hasn't turned anything up. When it comes to being unsure if something is legal, or not, it is best to assume it is illegal.
