That is gorgeous!! Joe, did you already score one?

Oh wow. I wasn't really feeling the first sculpt. But that robot looks great.

Definitely a cool robot. The transparent head is a very interesting touch. He has seems to have a very Vader-esque chest panel I wonder if this is the same scale as the Jet Turre?

This is one KILLER TOY! Wow!

Are these still available anywhere? I really like the paint and the clear head is awesome

Oh shoot! I saw a pic of that dude but have been looking for info. I would love to get one myself. It's a fantastic robot design. Cool to hear it's painted by Nishimura, because it's gorgeous.

This robot is so hot.
I would do this robot.

medicom version loses glassy effect!
but is the moldthe same!?

Kaisandā...

Freaking RADICAL!!!!!

Saw this last night, what a nasty beast!

One of, if not, the best sea creature sofubi sculpts out there. He's got a fucking anchor in his back! I mean, C'MON!

I've had way too much coffee today.

Rotting shark head, barnacles galore, half-swallowed octopus....what's not to love,love,love !

I love how he is a mash up of all these ocean elements. Amazing and super creative/original look and feel to this guy. I want to see 1 with metallic blue and green sprays.

Holy hell. I need one. Sooooo gross, cool and original.

Shit week made substantially sweeter by sea monster sighting - so swell.

Now there is a tongue twister. I hope lulu can get a hold of some of these.

Jetturre • Horumora by bansheebot, on Flickr

Horumora is one of the toys that got me back into collecting sofubi several months ago. He's a giant mass of creepiness. I absolutely love the character and plan on framing the anatomical drawing that came with him.

While I'm not a huge fan of Good Robot (I think it's an awesome sculpt with its asymmetry and clear car head, just too refined and clean for my personal taste), I'm really happy to see another knockout from Jetture.

BTW -- I believe the new guy's name is Kaithunder. Kai = ocean.

Kaithunder=Great name. It's hard naming toys.

Can someone tell me where they are finding these shots ?

Love this toy !!!

"Kai" would be seashell/shellfish. Umi would be ocean/sea. So "Shellfish Thunder" would be the characters name. The romaji is Kaisandā. But I know how we all love to mix Japanese with English. So I guess we will go with "Kai Thunder" as it sounds cooler.

EDIT: Yep, my bad it is "Ocean Thunder."



There you go Rich....

Actually, 'kai' is an alternate reading for the character for ocean. Although it's entirely possible that he created the name with both meanings in mind given the design of the character.

Interesting sculpt. The anchor kind of throws it off for me. If they could attach a chain to it I think it work better(Like the thing just ripped it right off a ship). All in all I like what Jet Turre have come out with.

Left in english "Ocean Thunder" sounds like something out of Power Rangers so I like the mix of Japanese and english, good choice. Also, thats a good idea adding a little chain to the anchor.

Has anyone had success emailing Jetturre ?

I used the jetsome@mirror.ocn.ne.jp with no response. I'm wondering if I used a wrong email.
