I was fortunate this year to be able to go to the G.I.Joe Convention here in Atlanta, GA, which was held at the downtown Marriott hotel. While covering the event for Eternal Collector with the founder and great friend of mine, Frank. We saw a vender’s booth with some really amazing 1/6th scaled military equipment and accessories. The company is called “toyrrific.com” and they have some scaled boots that are just wild and a definite must have for any military 1/6 th scaled collector. The guys at toyrrific.com were nice enough to give me one of their “Force Boats” to review. This thing is amazing and great for any Navy SEALS diaroma. As you guys know the United States Navy Sea, Air and Land (SEAL) forces are an elite Special Operations Forces (or Special forces ) of the U.S. Navy, employed in unconventional warfare, guerrilla warfare, foreign internal defense, direct action, counter-terrorism, specific enemy snatch and grab (kidnapping), specific enemy assassination, hostage rescue, and special reconnaissance operations.
The Force Boat is about 29 inches long and made of tough inflatable vinyl with a hard plastic floor. There are 4 separate air compartments that hold air each with its own one-way valve (make sure you have some good lungs!) Other details include 5 handles on each side of the boat so you can have your figures hold on to them as if they were really carrying the craft. It comes complete with two scaled paddles. A raised front end like a real force boat and a section in the back that can fit a motor propelled engine. It can easily hold up 6 figures (1/6 scale). It can also float (only with one 1/6th scaled figure that is balanced correctly). Overall this is a great product and it retails on their website for $39.99 (USD). Make sure you check out their other great items available on their website at toyrrific.com .
Out of a rating of 1 to 10. I give it a well earned “10” and the Eternal Collector Stamp of Approval!
