Nice set - but not perfect if you're looking for "mint". The pants and jacket are fairly supple - but there's a few "hard spots" here and there - at nearing 60 years these suits just aren't going to be like new - they naturally break down with age. Hence why you never find them intact loose. No cello tears to either package. The tanks are nice in that the usually broken (yes, even in package) air hoses are intact. There's about a 2" cello tear near the tank's bottom - the 'high points' of the contents makes it near impossible to find a tear-free example. No cello tears on small accessories card. Not perfect but still a nice example set to add to one's collection.

GI Joe 1964 #7603 #7604 #7605 #7606 Navy Frogman Scuba Small Card Complete Set

In 1964, the original GI Joe marketing plan was simple.  Sell them the doll...err...action figure :-) and then sell them plenty of outfit/accessories to go with it.  Seems simple today but it was unique in the toys for boys market (but successfully implemented with Mattel?s Barbie 5 years earlier) of the early 1960s.  Each item is displayed where it could easily be seen on a store shelf - each one sewn on a card and visible through cello window or seal.  This is one of the sets you could buy to compliment your GI Joe soldier, sailor, marine, or pilot.  This particular set contains all 4 Scuba small cards:

  • GI Joe 1964 #7603 MOC Navy Frogman SCUBA TOP Small Card
  • GI Joe 1964 #7604 MOC Navy Frogman SCUBA PANTS Bottoms Small Card
  • GI Joe 1964 #7605 MOC Navy Frogman SCUBA Gear Small Card
  • GI Joe 1964 #7606 MOC Navy Frogman Scuba Tanks Small Card

Note: Elastics and pliable vinyls and plastics are made of materials that allow them to stretch - and then return back to their original shape. However, these materials do not age well - and all will eventually harden and actually decay. Please not that these scuba suits will never be suitable for putting on a figure today.
