The G.I. Joe Collector’s Club has released a new image of their reproduction 12-inch 1969 Aquanaut Box Set.
Uniform Set 2
This is the reproduction 12-inch 1969 Aquanaut stripped of his long box gear and redressed in ONE of the uniform sets included in the larger outer box that holds the entire 12-inch convention set.
“DIVE INTO DARKNESS” is a new spin on the classic Deep Sea Diver
look of the vintage 12-inch G.I. JOE!
There are things in the hidden darkness of the ocean floor. For his own safety, G.I. JOE must “blend in” to avoid the attention of creatures both unseen and unknown.
This second uniform set comes with:
– Black Dive Suit
– Black Gloves
– Silver-tone Diving Helmet
– Oxygen Pump and Hose
– Compass
– Brass-tone Weighted Belt & Harness
– Brass-tone Weighted Brown Boots
– Treasure Chest
– Treasure Coins
– Dive Knife and Sheath

The Club has revealed the first image of their 2016 JoeCon exclusive 12 inch figure.
The set features this spot on reproduction of the rare and hard to find 1969 release of the
Adventures of G.I. Joe AQUANAUT!
Between the years of the original military themed G.I. Joe of the mid 1960s and the
Adventure Team of the 1970s, there was a version of G.I. Joe produced for
only ONE YEAR in 1969.
These figures and uniform sets featured the now legendary "red top" packaging. Only two figures were produced that year and the Aquanaut was one of them!
The AQUANAUT comes fully outfitted in his classic black turtleneck sweater and black pants (which were unique to the 1969 release), sailor cap, boots, shoulder holster with revolver, and dog tag.
He will also come in a reproduction long box INSIDE the larger outer box for the set.

All jokes aside, their 12" figure for this year looks pretty good.
