This week I ordered some Aquacessories from S@H. When I opened the set the
Aquashark has a gray hood rather than the green hook pictured on the box.
I am not a Aquazone collector so I do not know if this is just a typical
thing or a rare mistake. Any help would be appreciated.

WWWWOW!  That's a very very old mistake -- dates way back to December of 1994
when the very first Aquazone sets started showing up in stores.  Almost all
of them had the gray hook by mistake, and Consumer Affairs exchanged the
element for the correct one for many people...  S@H must've received a return
shipment from some old warehouse somewhere...

I just opened another 6104, Gray hook again. The strange thing is that this
set is a 1996 set. Not part of the initial Aquazone sets in 1995. It's unusual
for TLC to make the same error 2 years in a row. Has any body else had a gray
hook in 6104? Or any of the other 1996 Aquazone sets?

I just checked all my aquashark figs and everyone has a gray hook, I never
got one of the translucent ones I wanted = (

I had forgotten about this til I read it here, I wonder if I can get 6 or so
of the translucent hooks to outfit my aquasharks properly... was always
bothered that all the pictures nevr showed the hook I was going to get is
gray....

(...) Odd, I only have one hooked Aquashark, and his hook is trans green. I guess I'm lucky. That has to be one of the coolest minifig pieces ever! Now all we need are some trans green arms and torsos and legs... Greg Majewski (URL) (24 years ago, 13-May-00, to lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.general)

Oh my. (...) If you want neon-green hooks, I'm swimming in them. (Get it? Swimming? Ha! I made a funny! Get it? They're Aquasharks, and I said 'swimming.' Isn't that funny? Huh? Oh, nevermind.)
