Wet-Suit (2002 Special Collection)
Doesn’t look quite so special, does he? Not considering the figure came with a grand total of none of its original accessories. But hey, at least we got a flare gun, which I suppose he can use to call for help when he realizes he’s at sea without his breathing apparatus, flippers or water sled.
Instead, the only other equipment he’s stuck with are an infantryman’s pack and a Sound Attack rifle. Sound Attack was a big part of the theme of the exclusive set in which this figure was included. Ah yes, Sound Attack. I simply must spend some time covering that
I would point out that this figure could make for an effective Night Force Wet Suit, but there was already another one (with more appropriate accessories) from the Toys R Us Navy Assault pack of 1998. Oh well, not every Wet-Suit repaint can be Mission Brazil.
I actually would like to get my hands on this set, if only to customize the Firefly, Roadblock, Fast Blast Viper (into an easy Crimson HEAT-Viper custom) and Storm Shadow in it. The rest I can just re-equip.
This is a good figure if you get a set of accessories from the 98 figure. In all it wasn’t a terrible set except for the accessories.
I love the original Wet-Suit figure and you really can’t go wrong reissuing it, but this is probably the weakest of his repaints. The guy needed to have his proper gear.
With the bottom-of-the-ocean pale skin tone, I imagine this as Deep Six in SEAL garb. Still needs some gear, though.
Awful
AHHH the BJ’s pack, funny stuff, but this one was the winner and actually is my fav wetsuit of the bunch.
Great looking figure but pointless
Nice colors!
Although it doesn’t have any accessories that fit it, it’s still a great looking figure.
