Toys

Go!

  • Jinbu (6-22-13)
    • Japanese ID number: G02
    • Accessories: "Mach Katana" naginata, kabuto helmet/weapon
Part of the second wave of TakaraTomy Go! toys, Jinbu is a roughly Voyager-sized toy that transforms from a highly questionable swept-wing jet fighter into a samurai-styled robot. His head is designed to resemble a kabuto helmet. He can also form the top, middle or bottom of the Swordbot Samurai Team's three combined robot forms. He has a large sword with a long handle that, while 5mm in diameter, is too long for anyone without fist-holes going all the way through their hands to wield. It is also extremely difficult to get both of his fists on the long, two-handed handle. Jinbu is conspicuously lacking a torso, with the cockpit on his chest and the upper parts of his combined-form limbs gamely trying to hide the emptiness of his body.
His kabuto helmet is worn in GoJinbu form to form the super-robot's head. It can also be attached to the jet mode as a aerodynamics-destroying cannon, or used by the robot as a backpack or a terrible cannon-shield-thing.
In GoJinbu form, Jinbu's kabuto activates phrases from his voice actor in Kenzan's electronics, and switches the multi-colored LED display to yellow. The combined robot mode is armed with a giant melee weapon formed from all of their individual melee weapons, as well as an aesthetically-questionable blaster/cannon made of the unused kabuto helmets.
The initial release of Jinbu suffers from swapped thighs, preventing him from bending his knees past 90 degrees, and from allowing his legs to be tabbed and secured properly in the "GoKenzan" combined mode.
Upon his initial release, Jinbu included his Mini-Con partner Jin when purchased from a large number of retailers (including Amazon Japan).

BeCool

  • Samurai Team BeCool Set (10-26-13)
    • Japanese ID number: G24
Part of the sixth wave of Go! toys, BeCool Jinbu is a redeco of Bot Shots Series 1 Starscream with Powerglide's chest and head. He transforms into a tiny, super deformed jet with a spring-loaded automatic transformation to robot mode triggered when his nosecone is pressed. He has a "spinner" in his chest that depicts various symbols of the (implied) expression of his face, his sword, and a Japanese character. He comes in a three-pack with equally small, super deformed versions of Kenzan and Ganoh.

Notes

  • The name "Jinbu" is a made-up word that could potentially have many meanings. Some Japanese characters which can be read "Jin" can mean "man," "gods," "soul," and "military rank" (among many other things), and some characters that can be read "Bu" can mean "soldier" or "warrior" (among other things).
