A recent Custom project was putting together a six man SEAL team, this is the kind of set I would have wanted to see from Hasbro, and would have ideally been packaged all together or in two sets of three. This team is made up of land based SEAL figures, and I am considering the idea of a second team of six different characters in dive gear.
Torpedo
I've always liked Torpedo and this is my second custom of the character. Both customs utilize the Bullhorn head. Of all the Hasbro characters that deserved an update throughout the ARAH line, Torpedo is at the top of that list. The first figure was terribly disappointing, he was scrawny and in that dive suit with a perma-mask, which severely limited his usage from me!
The only mods to the figure itself were the addition of the radio and grenades added to the Mainframe torso.
Wet Down
This figure was originally put together as an LBC Spearhead, but after recently repainting a Spearhead figure in better colors, this LBC became obsolete. Instead of taking it completely apart, I instead repurposed him as Wet Down and painted him as part of my Joe SEAL team.
Wet Down only saw one release and was a repainted Wet Suit I believe making him a complete blank slate as a character, which are often times my favorite types of characters. Wet Down is armed with a digital recorder/laser target designator, night vision goggles and a modified sub-machine gun (scope has been added).
