Ah yes, the tiny Aquazone set that couldn't decide what faction it was supposed to be.
Man this is nearly identical to the set that was the set of the day like what... 3 days ago?
Few days ago already had a similar set like this, but this one I do actually have.
21 year old set, but I still love the neon transparent hook hand.
I agree with phi13. Maybe a better name for this set could’ve been Aquashark Defector...
I 've never had a set from this theme but it seems I've gathered couple of second hand minifigs along the way. With their cool helmets and the neon hook, they became bad guys by default.
If I were to have a hook hand, I wouldn’t want one made out of glass (or other transparent material). I’d want one made of strong metal. But then again that’s just me.
Yeah, I was sure we just had this set, like 3 days ago.
Interesting little model, though. This poor fellow can't decide whether he's a naut or a shark.
hah, I like that we have this one a few days after the aquanaut one. Also, since this guy looks nothing like the other aquasharks with their bulky gear and red visors but does have the hook and face of one of them, my headcanon is that this is Aquasharks: Origins and this is how that guy started out, being a more neutral guy before leaning hard into the evil pirate thing
This looks like a terrible way to transport oneself underwater.
Man. Just literally pieced this back together from numerous bulk lots.
Great set!
For a second there I thought I read "Aquashart Dark". Very different theme I suppose.
Huwbot was a bit repetitive because three days ago we had a very similar set.
To further mess with the whole Aquanauts/Aquasharks mix-up the set's box marks it as a Hydronauts set...
6018 Battle Dragon from 1990 was a similarly mysterious set: Black Falcons, Crusaders or Black Knights?
