One of the first GI Joes I got when I was a kid besides Shockwave was Wet-Suit. At the time, I didn't mind the yellow, but now it doesn't look right to me. So instead of making a custom on the Battle Corps version, I made one that is a modern update of the first RAH version. I didn't give him yellow or white(other than leaving his camouflage in tact) to match up with the original because I felt he looked better to me without them.
My problem with the AOCI version was the fact that it was just a Torpedo repaint and didn't resonate to me as Wet-Suit. So I used a Retaliation Flint body, repainting it just a little bit while giving him a 30th Sci-Fi head(which looks perfect as a head for a diver) underneath a ROC Flash helmet. I really felt the helmet was a better choice for accuracy than the original one. Yes, I know I should have put some scuba gear on him but was too lazy to do so. Hope you like him nonetheless. Formula: Body: Retaliation Wave 2 Flint Head: 30th Sci-Fi Helmet: ROC Flash
