didn't occur more to TLC when creating the sets as they have a treasure chest
stuck in the jaws of the bones of a giant fish, but not from a wrecked ship
(with skeleton!).  This is especially odd since the two themes were close to
each other in dates.  I think they could have sold a lot more divers that way
through sort of a cross-pollination.

Hmm.  I wonder if LEGO thought about making a combo-pack of something like
6558 Shark Cage Cove and 6250 Cross Bone Clipper.  If they had included an
additional instruction set, to build a shipwreck search-and-salvage (or the
academic equivalent of salvage), that would have been great!
