"Wading Through"

The nature of the missions that G.I. Joe finds itself involved in can have its operatives sent anywhere. After receiving word of gunfire and explosions along a river delta, the Joe team has appropriately dispatched divers to investigate the disturbed waters. On the outside looking in, someone would likely expect a deeper body of water to justify each of these Sailors carrying a generous personal arsenal. But with how ambitious - and arguably unhinged - Cobra's weapons research has become, fortune would justify those who came better prepared...

 

My 60th Anniversary Action Sailor makes his solo debut here! The original box art of the 1960s G.I. Joe sailor featured a deep-sea diver with a combat knife and a bundle of TNT. With Hasbro electing to have its modern-day tribute kitted out in a similar get-up, I suppose it was the look that the project managers considered to be the most "exciting" in the 1960s, and what experts call here in the present, "tacti-cool."
