Someone here once said that Torpedo would be the team's resident bass-ass had Snake-Eyes not already filled that position. It forced me to take another look at his file card, and that person was definitely correct.

None of the replacement characters from 85/86 are a good as the originals to me. I'd have been happier if they had just been a second version of the same character.

Both. Had Torpedo, but didn't have Wet Suit who has nicer color scheme.

I maintain my position that Scarlett should have been the "team ninja". I mean, she has shuriken, comes from a martial arts family / tradition, and is trained with the ka-bar and the garotte. The fucking garotte. No one else in Joe lore was specifically trained in using a garotte for counter-intelligence lol...

I picked Wet Suit based on the toy.
I love Torpedo, but really didn't like how the vintage one looked and even Wetsuit had issues as I really wished his helmet was removable, but fully geared up, Wetsuit looked better. Of course, 25th Anniversary changed all that. I love how I finally was able to have Wetsuit the way I wanted him to look as a kid. Even Torpedo, was much better as you can see him in the background of the first picture. That 50th one was dope and I used some 25th gear on him. Based on the cartoons and comics though, I did like Torpedo better. I hated how they kept making Wetsuit and Leatherneck argue in the cartoons.

Torpedo twice over. He was such a bad-ass that he infiltrated the US Mint wearing his full wet suit, fins, and respirator with Gung-Ho and Trip Wire to stop Doctor Venom's plot. (ARAH 16)

Wet Suit, I like Torpedo, but the fact his air tanks don't connect to his mask bothers me.

Like them both but slightly prefer Torpedo as a character, but the Joe Club "Non Scuba" Wet suit was the best 3.75" scale Navy SEAL figure in the Joe line.
