Aquatic, Marine adapted toys.

[ickzer1]

One of my toy and life fascinations/ obsessions is marine life and what goes with exploring it. My favorite Element if you will. As a result i tend to always buy the toys from a line that deal with water. Frogmen, water monsters, ocean geared stuff, etc. I collected only the Water Dragons from the Mcf line.
I would love to see more toys based on this element as there are so many design possiblites that lie within the vast inhabitants of the ocean.

I may be alone in this though.:o

[Shadowless]

I love sea monsters....If done right.

[ickzer1]

Nobody else digs Sea stuff? :(

[Uwe]

Basilisk is one of my favorites from McFarlane of late.

[White Line Nightmare]

Love that stuff, and always have, going back to a wind-up swimming turtle I had as a kid.

I'd like to see another McF deep sea diver with better sculpting and articulation (I can dream, right?), maybe as a part of an aquatic-themed horror/Monsters line, or maybe some Big Daddies from Bioshock...

Some Bioshock stuff would be nice. Everyone is saying licensed and videogame figs are in now.

Trance Viper is also a sea creature nut! :D

[homunculus]

Trance is indeed a sea-critter nut. I wouldn't call myself a nut, exactly, but there's definitely enough wild-looking stuff down there to mine design elements from. Could be some very neat toys- especially with a super-retro deep sea diver guy, like White Line Nightmare said.

[Coolest Board Name]

I'm with you, and like Uwe I love the Basilisk for that reason :
cool sculpt + aquatic monster = perfect toy formula

[Trance Viper]

100% HELL YES!!!

[Felmat]

Cabin Control Nemo and Wave Rider Nemo are pretty spectacular as far as marine-adapted toys.

[dropshipbob]

Yes!!!

bring back Seaquest DSV toys!!

[Tablehead]

One of my first (really cool) toys I remember was the Remco Frogman (http://cgi.ebay.com/REMCO-BATTERY-OPERATED-NAVY-FROGMAN-EXTRAS_W0QQitemZ330235554092QQihZ014QQcategoryZ719QQcmdZViewItem)-
22" long, he predated GI Joe by a few years & really swam!

Mine got away from me in Sheep Pond (Cape Cod) where he still might be swimming around-

Haven't see another toy like him, which is kind of surprising~

Another one that sold on Ebay (for $364.00) w/much better pics (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130227172937&category=719)~

[Wardo30]

i'll be sure to look for him when I go to Cape Cod this summer

[ickzer1]

bring back Seaquest DSV toys!!

My god i loved that stupid show and even got a few of the toys. I bought all the models and put em together years ago.
I wish there was something new in the Water genre to take its place.:(

[dropshipbob]

Well, there was that one show that had a sea monster in it, but it only lasted 5 or 6 episodes.

Can't remember what it was called.

[ickzer1]

I remember Surface, it lasted about 13 eps. I need a new fix of Sea fiction.

I only mentioned it because I noticed a Johnathan Brandis toy in an old bucket toy bucket the other day

[moviemaniac4]

If I had enough money and space, I could invest on a model from the Seaview and Stingray.

There is also a submarine from that series U.F.O. The "Skydiver"

I just watched that. I had never heard of that show before. Concept seemed like they jacked Thunderbirds but thats good in my book.

[moviemaniac4]

I always wanted a figure from Jacques Cousteau.......

I used to watch those TV series in the 70's and the adventures with the Calypso. Of all those episodes I still remember the travel of thousand of lobsters walking kilometers between the oceans.....

[ickzer1]

The Frenchman would be nice. There are so many possibilities for this genre its crazy. Its damn near limitless. More Seamonsters and high tech sea machinesare needed too.

[moviemaniacks]

cancelled

[infest0r]

please post some pictures of your aquatic/marine adapted toys. some scuba divers would be nice.

[DJ Soundwave]

Is your favorite movie The Abyss ? LOL or do you like Leviathan Better ? LOL

[Trunks3540]

I know you like GI Joe, so I figure I'd let you know, they now have a GI Joe 4 pack I saw at Target and WM lately with some Joe's in Scuba gear, with some oeceanic weapon stuffs with them. Maybe something you'd wanna look into and make a dio of? It looked pretty cool to me and I don't like GI Joe's all too much.

And I like underwater stuff too. I had the whole set of Seaquest figures, but I unno what happend to them. They disapeared at some point. But there hasn't been any cool undersea toys I've wanted lately.

Those are cool looking, but the gun is a little big for the figure.
