I found 1 this weekend...well 2, but I left the other for someone else. Mine has two quality control issues, but it's fine. A small chip of the black paint on the inside of his upper arm came off when I move his arm and his head is very loose. His head won't come off, but it's like the socket is too big and causes it to move around too much. My HTS order finally shipped on Saturday so I'll see if that one is better. 9/10 for me. Oh, and I got a #2 weapon variant lol.

The EEl has been a much requested figure and Wave 11 finally brings him to us. And it looks great! Great representation of a classic figure (which for some sad reason I could not locate for the time being, so no comparison picture...sorry) which was worth the wait.
No surprise here that the EEL's main body is Torpedo's, but no complaint's either as it works well. The surprise is the nice removable helmet with clear visor. Great touch, I wouldn't have thought that when we finally got an EEL that they would go to that much trouble, but it does seem as of late that this is where they are heading. Sure, we get a lot of re-used parts, but we also get the cool upgrades that are only affordable due to the lack of new tooling. I can live with that trade off. Great accessories here, the spear gun, the flippers, the removable chest plate, backpack with air hoses to attach to the helmet and not one, but two knives! Overall, this is a great figure and one that I imagine will look really cool on the sides of the new Water Moccasin, ready to dive off. FIGURE RATING: 9 out of 10 |

I love the figure personally. It's right up there with the Hiss Tank Driver to me. I need two more Tanks for my Platoon to be complete. Have 6 Drivers +2 commanders. Im thinking about 6-8 Eels for a Pure water Based Demolitions attack team. 2 Squads of 4 men each. So the Spear gun works for me.

OK, question...are the hoses/breathing piece supposed to be removed from the backpack? it seems like they are glued. I just noticed that the bottom booster part comes off the backpack like the original did.

This Eel seemed to do okay with his spear gun...
Took out both Snake Eyes and Scarlett, lol.
