 * Killer Fish (Beastformer, 1987)
 * Beast ID number: 5


 * Killer Fish is an anthropomorphic carp with maroon robotic armor. He came with his "Killer Anchor" weapon.  The original Beastformers release in Transformers-style packaging gave him an Decepticon rubsign.  After the move to non-Transformers packaging, he got the standard Wood/fire/Water rubsigns the Hasbro versions did.


 * Killer Fish white version (Beastformer, 1987)


 * A solid-white version of Killer Fish was sold through gumball machines in Japan. The gumball versions of the Beastformers appeared to have randomized weapons (or just crummy QC).


 * Killer Fish clear version (Beastformer, 1987)


 * A colorless-clear version of Killer Fish was made avaliable in two different ways. It was part of the "Perfect 6 Set" --which actually had seven figures-- along with Baboon, Cobrander, Demonkey, Eagle Killer, Little Serow, and Shield Dragon.


 * It was also a prize in "punch-box" giveaways, where kids would punch through a paper front on a box containing random Beastformers prizes in each compartment. Trhee clear Fish were available per box.


 * Killer Fish clear-striped version (Beastformer, 1987)


 * Made available in the same "punch-box" promotion as the clear Killer Fish, this version, which has mottled-brownish stripes through it, was only in one compartment per box.
