Repro Scuba Suits?

I'm not looking for rubber ones. Once upon a time I broke a Joe with a rubber wet suit. Once bitten twice shy and all that.


I'm curious about some stretchy lycra ones. I've heard a lot about them, and would like to give it a whirl if the price is right.

Anyone have one or know where I could purloin one? (Except with money)


(Sadly Project-ARE doesn't have any, and seems to have stopped making more of anything )

I've looked before... struggled to find them on the net... no joy.

Sorry, I can't help on the free front, but i opted for a neoprene one from Cotswold Collectables (back in the dark days of 2013, when we did a group order)

I've got two one on my SAS frogman on page 8 and one on Underwater Assault on the last page of my Collection click here

I did have a vintage one but watched as it crumbled so went with neoprene, last time i looked they were on ebay 1/6 frogman.

Ian,

I don't have any spare lycra wetsuits, sorry, they are all on my MAM figures... MAM is the keyword here You should definitely start looking amongst the MAM range on ebay, some of  the MAM lycra diving gear was used in the modern G.I.Joe range but offered in different colours to the ones used for uk sets. Try searching ebay for MAM divers and the likes, you'll be able to blag all you need for next to nothing

I think there's a blue and black wet suit available in the modern Joe range, similar to the MAM one in this link:

Good luck

clivvers is right on this! I have several MAM lycra versions, some with stripes down the seams, some plain. Short sleeves/legs and long versions.

Absolutely THE best wetsuit and complete diving gear EVER is TOYSCITY 1/6 COMBAT DIVER SET.
It has EVERYTHING you could ever want, ...including a brilliant wetsuit.!
