Are you looking to make divers or SEaLs?
SEaLs are not divers. Hasbro always screwed this up hardcore. Big pet peeve of mine.

SEALS don't dive? Didn't the SEALS derive some of their skills from the BUD's teams. Just asking not looking to cause trouble but I believe SEALS stand for Sea Air and Land and you either swim boat or DIVE in the Sea.

They aren't qualified parachutists nor do they carry guns. In fact they never wear black neoprene suits. big pet peeve of mine

of course SEALs dive, but being a diver is completely different which is what he is saying.

As I understand it, diving is just one aspect of a SEAL's training, but Hasbro has traditionally made all of the Joe SEALs wear diving gear as if "diver" and "SEAL" are interchangeable terms, which they really aren't.

i get what youre saying but i think youre expecting to much. if they put the seals in bdu's or any other sort of standard uniform then what would distinguish then from the army and marines? the V1 wetsuit was always one of my favorites figs and i was happy to see some repaints of that because i thought hasbro messed up when they made the three pack- should not have included shipwreck, should have used that version of torpedo to create a new character (trident?) and should have included a fig in cammies as a boat operator for the dive team. |
