Some of the Aquashark sets introduced in 1996 included a figure
with an antifreeze-colored hook.

Or at least they were supposed to.  Apparently LEGO didn't have
the element ready to go into production when the sets were first
released, so, although the box covers showed the green hook, you
would actually get a gray hook, like the ones the 'captain hook'
pirate minifigs had.  For awhile you could call up LEGO
consumer affairs and ask for a replacement antifreeze-colored hook.
