Really appreciate all your thorough and straightforward video breakdowns. I wanted to upgrade the gear on my Torpedo but was torn between getting the 60th Recon Diver to use on him or get Gridiron's ultimate frogman. Because what you pointed out with the funkiness of the buoyancy vest, the open holes on the backpack, the hoses don't detach from the mask and they limit head movement when they're on, had me pass on this and go Gridiron. Thank you.

I think the black guy head has a slightly broader and rounder nose than the white guy head. And they are both different from Torpedo. But the differences are slight and measured in millimeters. I think digitally they were the same head/face blank that they dropped a different nose on.

Aw shucks man… sorry you felt disappointed in the figure especially for how long ya waited… he’s definitely a cumbersome figure. And honestly I don’t think there was much the Joe team could do. I looked at a lot of diver equipment and it looks very big and bulky. In my opinion I think he’s a really fun figure to have with all the accessories and detail on him.

I am excited about this figure and wave. I like the assortment of accesories. Don't be surprised if we see hasbro repaint this buck a few more times. As a Marine, I would love for them to do any kind of Marine figure, rifle man, sniper, recon. Thank you Bobby.

I just wish they would give us 1 figure in vintage 12” style gear. An old iron pot helmet (they have the tooling, and I don’t think it’s something that can be considered unique to Marvel) And old Garrand. A Mae West.

Great review. I did get one from Amazon since they were shipping early. I think they should have included torpedo’s mask since the backpack has holes for it. I think this needed one or 2 more items to justify the deluxe price.

I mean if we really wanna play semantics ol diver here has fewer, bigger accessories with more paint aps vs Scarlet and her many accessories that are much smaller, it's kind of a moot point comparing them cause you can just see where the effort went.

@johnlogan94278 ай бұрын
I haven't added him yet. Initially, I wasn't going to get him. I just didn't think he warranted the deluxe price with all of the reused parts and accessories. I also hate how they gave him a LBV, but no sculpted mag pouches for his rifle. I like the figure a bit more now that I've seen it in reviews, so I'm going to pick it up eventually. It's just not the highest on my list. I'm still on the fence about the Action Soldier.

Liked him alot more than I thought I would. Annoying that things that should be rubber are hard plastic and vice versa. I think the buoyancy vest would definitely benefit from being rubber as would the molle vest and the diving mask. But it seems to be a "damned if you do; damned if you don't" situation. If you want clear lenses, it's gotta be hard plastic (like the Eel helmet). You want flexible? Well, then forget having clear lenses. And do we really even need the harpoon gun?

Despite not really feeling the aesthetic (there are better realistic soldier figures out there as everyone knows), I ordered these to support the line and keep my collection semi-complete. Looks like this one and most likely the Action Soldier will be staying in their packages.

For Classified being such a fun hands on line it's definitely jarring to have a figure that's more of a pose it and look at it. However by nature unfortunately this was going to happen with a diver like this having the removable gear. Still like him a lot more than Torpedo, honestly don't even need him anymore. Just put the Torpedo head on this one As for the accessory count Scarlett has a lot of reused parts and smaller pieces. Comparing each crossbow bolt to some of the accessories here is a bit unfair in my opinion.
@beesbattlegrounds8 ай бұрын
I think an extra mask or longer air tubes would have made this a lot better, and for reuse of retro Scarlett, she's "new" where here we have a whole figure reused with a new head(s) and some web gear
@Lazrael328 ай бұрын
I'm surprisingly not that interested in scuba divers for some reason. as for the price point it makes perfect sense. they know scarlett will sell. plus they get a budet for the line. and they can put more into one figure and less into another. i don't agree with it. but there is a reasoning to it. This figure does have a very classic feel to it for me, but just not that excited for it.

Still buying 3 (1 open, 1 box, 1 trade). While not cannon and questionable for army building, Hasbro and this figure makes an attempt to go outside the comfort zone of the typical completionist and GI joe fan by making this generic figure a homage to the past military lines of toys. Was it a home run? No. More like a single, definitely not a triple nor a double.
