SCUBA Trooper for Bath Time

Here is a great Star Wars figure that can be used for bath time. It is the clone SCUBA trooper, as seen in the Tartakovsky 2-D cartoon from a few years ago. I like this figure because there aren't many small pieces that can get lost. The loose parts consist of a backpack, a very long gun, and two flippers.

Although the flippers attach pretty firmly, I resorted to super-glue to keep them on. I know that Star Wars purists and collectors are cringing when I say super-glue, but I think that is the best choice for toys that are going to be played with. I figured that it would be better to have a toy that has the flippers, that may not fit into some vehicles, than a SCUBA trooper with lost gear!
