Sharkruiser

Debut: 1987 Designer: Larry Wood 31 releases · 0 case appearances Wiki ↗

Sharkruiser is a hot-rodded shark on wheels. The upper body fairly accurately reproduces the upper jaw, body (minus the tail) and dorsal/pectoral fins of a Great White shark. The interior molding continues from front to back to form the fishs huge teeth and the cars two massive V8 engines and tail-pipes. The cars base extends to form the sharks lower jaw at the front and the tail at the rear. This unusual design means that certain versions actually have a tail and lower jaw that are a different color from the rest of the body. Unrealistically, the tail fin is horizontal, like that of a dolphin, rather than vertical like that of a real shark! (This is due to the way the car is designed. The engine placement would not allow the tail to be vertical.) It reads SHARK in all-caps on the headers of the engine block. There is also a motorized pool toy made by Mattel (under the Max Steel name) called the "Sharkruiser".
