“The jet ski is identical in design to the ones included in 6334 Wave Jump Racers, which were labeled with the numbers "5" and "8" while the jet ski in this set has the number "3". Similarly, the two buoys are completely identical to those from 6334.”

“The jet-ski is sleek and the buoys are a nice touch. Interesting parts of note are the 2X3 slope brick with red stars, the red mini-fig torso with white stars, and the wedge 6X4 with 3 pattern. All of these parts are printed; however there are stickers of stars to put on the... More side of the wedge.”
