Shovel CG was released in CG Robo by Bandai and converts from robot to excavator of unknown make in 4 steps. The figure was designed by PLEX. Like all CG Robo, it has a "Change and Glow" (i.e. light and sound) feature - pressing down the lights in either mode causes them to flash and make an engine noise. The toy features a large amount of stickers - including the digger arm details. Shovel CG does have a very interesting asymmetrical design, however.

The toy was not released outside Japan.
