Beni-Shark comes from the Toei Japanese live action show "Chôjin Bibyun", the sequel to Akumaizer 3. In the show, Beni Shark (also known as Crimson Shark) was a living aircraft that could shrink or grow in size. Beni-Shark would summon the heroes - Bashaan, Bibyun and Zushiiin - whenever it spotted ghosts or demons.

This tiny vehicle is only 2 inches long. It features a launching missile and rolling wheels. It comes packaged in the always beautiful grip-style blister box.

Takatoku also made a larger sized Beni-Shark, as part of its Z-Gokin series.
