Toys

[edit]

Beast Wars

[edit]
Eh. Still smells like fish.
  • Depth Charge (Ultra Transmetal, 1998)
    • Japanese ID number: C-46
The nuclear cybershark drone was included with Depth Charge. It fires two missiles.


  • Showdown at the Ocean Bottom: Metals Depth Charge Vs. Metals Inferno (Multi-pack, 1999)
    • Japanese ID number: VS-46
During Beast Wars Metals, Depth Charge (with the "Koban Shark") was available both individually and in a double-pack with Metals Inferno. Both toys were identical to their individual releases.

Universe (2003)

[edit]
  • Depthcharge (Ultra, 2004)
For the Universe redeco of Depthcharge, the tail of the cybershark drone was changed to pop off as a separate piece; this also allows it to spin and makes it easier for Depthcharge to hold it in robot mode.

Notes

[edit]
  • In the Japanese dub of Beast Wars, the drone is a sapient being and shares Depth Charge's vocal gimmick.

Foreign names

[edit]
  • Japanese: Kobanzametarō (cartoon, こばんざめたろう),<ref>"Kobanzametarō" is composed of kobanzame (小判鮫, "remora"), and [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}Tarō (given name)|{{#if:Tarō|Tarō|Tarō (given name)}}]] (太郎), a common Japanese name or name suffix literally meaning "eldest son".</ref> Koban Shark (toy, コバンシャーク Koban Shāku)<ref>This is a play on kobanzame (小判鮫), the Japanese word for "remora".
