heh, that video made it worth while.

Seems it would work better is there were a way to anchor the ramps in place, like with good old fashioned suction cups.

I want a shark finger puppet...it just looks so adorable,and i can make it a good alarm clock by putting my phone into it so i cant turn it off in the morning...

Why oh why do we not have these gems in Europe D:

I don't know why I'm laughing at this but I am :)

I bet if you used the Batmobile hot wheel, It'd be coated in Shark Repelent, causing the shark to explode.

DavidFullam Jan 19th, 2009 01:18 PM

You know what this needs? MANG LAVA!

Julio Jan 19th, 2009 01:27 PM

Hey -RoG-, Pentegarn is right. I was thinking that you had some little trouble with the ramps screwing some of the jumps because of how much they move when something bumps on them. I you were to tape them to the ground that might be of help.

Hah, gotta love how you want the powerful Shark to canniablize his card brethren.

Man that video was the best part. lol

Kat Jan 19th, 2009 03:04 PM

Yeah I'm sure it would've helped to some extent... but the fact that you can't even build up enough speed when trying to make the motorcycle move forward is pretty pathetic. But hey, at least you get a chomping shark out of the deal. You can never have too many chomping sharks in your life. Words to live by...

If you really want a shark puppet, I'd recommend looking into the old 90's hand puppet toyline called "Street Sharks".
As you can see below, they were pretty badass...


CHEWS GUNS INTO SCRAP!

Slobulus has...jumped the shark?

darkvare Jan 19th, 2009 05:14 PM

i still have my street shark toy lol not the puppet though

robo_rob Jan 19th, 2009 05:55 PM

A pull back toy car probably would have made the jump. Not only for their speedy engines, but would weight a little more. Thus keeping the ramps in place better.

greenimp Jan 19th, 2009 06:19 PM

something about the way the shark just kept chomping while a range of incresingly random things crashed around it had me laughing like a hyena

STREET SHARKS?! Oh god how I loved Street Sharks when I was a lad. Thanks so much Rog, I almost completely forgot about those beauties.

The cartoon was pure genius...

Nick Jan 19th, 2009 08:53 PM

I remember those Street Sharks. They were pretty awesome.

Julio Jan 19th, 2009 10:45 PM

Feeding your chomping shark a miniature rifle might emulate the effect... Turn them into scrap!

Tetsu Deinonychus Jan 19th, 2009 11:34 PM

At least it was worth buying for the shark.

You ought to try putting it on the floor and jumping over it, yourself.

Was that Domokun under the shark? Damn Target is milking that campaign for everything its worth! Oh and i'm glad to see in these tough economic times that RoG can find low cost entertainment to provide us with. That is "Change" i can believe in!!!

Viteh Jan 20th, 2009 02:47 AM

Maybe if you take the motorcycle guy and give it an "Evil Knievel" paint job...

It may be a cheap toy, but it's still a deadly one and I'm not sure if I could make such a monumental leap over the shark.
