The Elite Water Warriors of the Cyan Army
Also called “Water Marines”, the Aqua Marines are an elite division within the Cyan Army, renowned for their unparalleled expertise in aquatic environments. These 2-inch plastic soldiers, commanded by the distinguished Sergeant Winters, are specially designed to thrive in water, making them formidable opponents both underwater and on land.
With the Real World’s surface being 70% water, the Aqua Marines play a crucial role in the Toyverse, leveraging their unique capabilities to secure victories in challenging environments. These plastic soldiers are trained to operate in oceans, rivers, lakes, and any water-based settings. Essential for missions requiring stealth infiltration, sabotage, and rescue under challenging conditions, they play a critical role in the Cyan army’s success, and now in the Army Men Alliance. Their expertise is not restricted only to special operations in aquatic environments, but also to missions with climatic complexities such as rain, snow, hail and gales. They are also subject to flooding and other disasters resulting from storms.
This light blue division was created using the advantage of its nation’s color, one of the best camouflaged in water.
