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

The second knife isn't a positive in my book. It's still an improperly used pistol holster that they couldn't be bothered replacing with something more fitting.
Other than that, it's a rather nicely done figure. |

Great review, easy 10/10 in my book, can't wait to have one for myself. He looks awesome and looks like a lot of effort was put into it making for an instant classic I'm sure. I have mine on order from HTS and can't wait until it ships!

I certainly respect your opinion on not liking the character, but I never thought of this one that way. On the EEL I think of him more like a Navy S.E.A.L. where they are trained to be bad ass in the water and on land. I never really thought of him as just a guy who only fights in the water, but then again, I could be in the minority thinking that way.
