SEALION VERSION 2

Sealion

Action Force two-seater submarine with independent, detachable sub-sea vehicles attached to the sides. Equipped with two sets of claws at the front, for destroying and retrieving objects. Other features include directional indicator in cockpit, opening canopy and rear storage bay, elevating cockpit surveillance camera. Armed with frontal powerful cannons and rear machine-gun.

The Sealion is another great vehicle which came with the very rare Dolphin version 2 figure (a repaint of the G.I. Joe Zap figure). The vehicle came with a huge amount of parts and accessories.

Two figures can be placed inside the cockpit of the vehicle. There are also two small pods (some call them Sea Pups) that figures can be placed onto.

The vehicle came with lots of accessories, including a gun, camera, spotlight and two missiles. Two breathing masks are also included.

A lever can be pulled and pincers at the front of the vehicle open and close. There are also two small blue hooks on the underside that are attached to string. They can be wound in and out.
