- God Neptune (Ultra, 1998)
- Japanese ID number: D-21
- Available only in a five-piece Ultra-level multi-pack with his teammates, Halfshell transforms into a mechanical tortoise, a redeco of the Generation 1 Seacon Snaptrap. A lever on his back makes the large cannons over his beast-mode head move back and forth in a "pom-pom" reciprocating motion. He forms the torso of the combined mode God Neptune, but since the mold uses the Scramble City style of combination, he can use any limb-robot of similar construction. Halfshell lacks the large rifle from the original release of the mold, however.
- For unknown reasons, a great number of unboxed God Neptune sets --lacking all of their accessories, including combiner parts-- ended up available on the secondary market. These went for considerably less than the "complete" releases, naturally.
- Halfshell's mold was slated to be released as Energon Snaptrap, as part of an exclusive Piranhaking multi-pack, but as of now remains unreleased.
