Wow. Never seen that before - best guess right now is it is from another toy line hasbro re-used/licensed the mold, or possibly one of the Funskool variants, as Eels was released in India by Funskool and they are notorious for off coloured variants like this
-
That is an honest curiosity.
It looks like a prototype/test run figure, or a dollar store knock off. Does the plastic feel solid or flimsy? Is there flash (extra plastic) anywhere on the sides or seems?
Either way, it's not something that you see every day.

After asking a few folks who are protoype/test shot aficionados, the consensus that is most probable - is that it is a prototype/test shot for the eventual production item.
To me, that makes it a VERY cool piece.

To be sure - any of the late 90's stuff in prototype is pretty interesting to obtain. You really lucked out on that parts lot...

That is not Funskool. Those mixed up colours are found for a figure test shot.

thank you guys for your help i tried asking them at hisstank and yojoe.com but neither one has ever replied to my messages as good as yojoe is for the collector trying to complete their stuff they are not very reliable thank you guys very much for the help
-
Thanks for sharing it with us. It's a cool find.

I received an email the other day, From a guy that has a lot of pictures and stuff on yojoe.com. Named Patrick Stewart. He said that the tail on my shark is the standard issue tail, and that the one that should be with my shark is blue.

I will be bringing this to the convention to see about getting more info on it. Also currently debating on selling/trading it. Maybe
-
oh yeah, sweet, bring it to con but don't trade it away or sell it before I get to take a look at it. I have a feeling a bunch of people will be hoping to see that roboshark.
that thing is awesome, a psychadelic wonder!
