Toymaker Bandai will release in November a new gadget that recreates the sensation of ripping open the serrated top of a candy box, the company has announced.

Peel back the top of Bandai's new "Mugen Peri Peri" (endless ripper) toy to get the sensation of opening the serrated lid of a cardboard box of candies. The device, made of materials like ABS plastic and synthetic rubber, also produces the sounds of the box being opened, including the sound of the cardboard tearing.

Mugen Peri Peri is the third product in Bandai's popular "mugen" (infinite) series, preceded by the "Mugen Puchi Puchi," a virtual bubble wrap device that reproduces the sensation of popping the bubbles, and the "Mugen Edamame," a bean-shaped toy that recreates the sensation of pushing peas out of a pod. Bandai has sold 2.5 million units of the Mugen Puchi Puchi and 1.3 million units of the Mugen Edamame.

Priced at 998 yen [appx $10], the Mugen Peri Peri will go on sale Nov. 22 in a range of four colors. Considering the success of the first two models in the series, Bandai expects to sell 500,000 units of the new product by the end of the current fiscal year.
Is this as good as the remote controlled shark?
