Maybe a couple of half-torpedo type gadgets to pull swimmers with too?

Perhaps on flying stands?

That. Deep sea divers next? The more generic poses the better.....action poses tend to limit there uses.

I picked up some Stan Johanssen Scuba divers for just this reason. He also said he might do somem more with gadgets and underwater sleds time permitting. Not got around to painting mine up for a game yet though. I also have a number of plastic frogmen from the old Atlantic 1/72 sets. They dont mix well though as Stans are chunkier.
