Diamond Tooth,[1][2][3] also known as simply Diamond,[4] is an Alpha Team Mission Deep Freeze minifigure introduced in 2004.
Description
Diamond Tooth wears a black Mini Pixie Cap and the black standard Mission Deep Freeze Alpha Team uniform with a dark green right sleeve. His face is printed with a frowning facial expression, a black goatee, black sunglasses, a dark grey bandana, and a silver microphone.
Background
Diamond Tooth is Alpha Team's mining expert.[5][Note 1] He is one of the new agents recruited by Alpha Team for Mission Deep Freeze.[6] As an Alpha-3 agent, he pilots the Tundra Tracker.[7]
After Radia is frozen by Ogel to prevent her from revealing his evil plans, Diamond Tooth drives the Tundra Tracker to rescue her. Upon discovering her location, he uses the Magma Drill to unfreeze her and then disables a nearby Ice Orb.
Diamond Tooth is the only playable agent in all three episodes of the Yamago-developed Mission Deep Freeze online games, in which he pilots the Tundra Tracker. In The First Encounter, Diamond's goal is to navigate the frozen desert and rendezvous with Charge at Checkpoint A-526. In Drones' Menace, Diamond and Charge meet up with Dash Justice and then rescue Radia. In Ogel's Fortress, Diamond and Charge are frozen after discovering the location of Ogel's Mountain Fortress; they are rescued by Arrow, Flex, and Dash, and then the united Alpha Team attacks the fortress and defeats Ogel.

Notes
- As an Alpha Team agent with a dark green sleeve and a bandana, Diamond Tooth is often perceived as a direct replacement for Crunch, who does not appear in Mission Deep Freeze.
- Oddly, Diamond Tooth's role in the Red Lens online games has several contradictions. When rescuing Radia in Red Lens 1, selecting Dash is the correct answer while Diamond leads to a mission failure, despite Diamond's major role in rescuing Radia in other media. Conversely, when locating Ogel's base in Red Lens 2, selecting Diamond is the correct answer, but the game's own mission complete screen describes Radia as the only agent who knows the correct answer.
- On the Alpha Team website, the product description of 4746 Mobile Command Center appears to refer to misidentify Arrow as Diamond Tooth;[8] the Shop At Home description for this set correctly names these agents.
