The Shark Spike was included as part of Robots in Disguise Sky-Byte, an extensive redeco of the Transmetal 2 Maximal Cybershark, forming his tail in beast mode and his left arm in robot mode. It has a gear system that in beast mode spins the fins like a propeller when a wheel in his side is turned. As Sky-Byte's left arm, the Shark Spike forms a spinning claw weapon.

First available as part of the Car Robots line in Japan, Gelshark slightly paint differences between his Takara and Hasbro releases.

Notes

• Sky-Byte's Hasbro toy bio refers to this weapon as the "Anchor Arm", its Japanese name.
• Likewise, at one point in Episode 20 of the Robots in Disguise cartoon, Sky-Byte refers to his Shark Spike as his "Anchor Arm". but like many other cases of misnamed attacks, this was an error on part of the English dub.

Foreign names

• Japanese: Anchor Arm (アンカーアーム Ankā Āmu).
