In the early 80's, Palitoy released a line of 3.75 inch figures based on their popular Action Man line from the 70s. The line included several repainted GI Joe figures and vehicles (like the VAMP, Fang, Mobat, Steeler, Stalker and Snake Eyes to name a few. These were divided into several sub-teams like SAS (Special Ops) and Z-Force (Infantry). One of these repainted Joes was Zap. In the UK, he became Dolphin, a member of a member of Q-Force, Action Force’s amphibious strike team. My version is a straight forward re-do of the original, including using a vintage style helmet. Helmet: ARAH vintage Battle Gear Visor: 25th Flash Head: Retaliation Kwinn Everything else: DG Duke V2

I made these too but just kept the helmets that came with the figure instead of vintage. Now you have me wanting to track down some visors to go on those accessory pack helmets. You always have the coolest ideas OB.

I like it a lot! If they put this on shelves exactly like it is here, I'd buy it in an instant.
