(2) K-3 Once again Grey's action-figure hero and his sidekick Scrubbing Brush inhabit the fanciful world-within-a-world of creative play, this time heading to the beach--for a manly day of scuba diving, picnic security duty, and...makeovers? Grey takes obvious delight in poking fun at Traction Man's machismo by dressing him in a pink sarong and plunking him into a party with some Beach-Time Brenda dolls.
