(Ree!)
Hey! my name is Jobby, and is this a motherfu-
Yes.
Good job, everybody.
Jojo's Bizarre Adventure is an anime/
(Rerorerore-) Jojo's Bizarre Adventure is an anime/
(rerorero-) manga franchise with an INSANELY huge
manga franchise with an INSANELY huge
borderline cancerous
fanbase.
And if you've been subscribed to my channel for a while, you could say this next part along with me.
How the hell do I have this job talking about anime merchandise, when I don't watch anime..?
Well, that's actually not true.
I just watch good anime.
And even though I've never watched or read Jojo,
I still recognize its huge influence on Japanese media.
So if you're watching your favorite Chinese cartoon, and you think to yourself
"Is that a Jojo reference?"
Kill yourself-
You might be right.
The painting and sculpting on this figure is amazing!
Jotaro Kujo here
is part of a line of figures called the Super Action Statues.
And that's exactly how the intricate painting and sculpting work comes across as.
A very detailed statue.
I'd even go so far as to say that some of the parts here are almost Renaissance quality!
I mean, look at his chest!
Not only does the shading add a lot of depth,
But the highlights in the paint give that illusion that his rippling muscles are bursting out of his shirt!
*Careless Whisper* But the highlights in the paint give that illusion that his rippling muscles are bursting out of his shirt!
*Careless Whisper X2* But the highlights in the paint give that illusion that his rippling muscles are bursting out of his shirt!
Isn't this character supposed to be like, twelve?
And I've gotta say, this guy has a pretty cool design.
It's a bit flamboyant, but that just seems to be the aesthetic of the Jojo franchise. Jotaro here looks the most normal.
But it does get a little less normal when you get to the head.
No, not only because he looks like a metrosexual Kenshiro,
It's because of... this thing,
wow.
I'm sure that everybody and their ugly dog noticed this hair-hat fusion,
but as an outsider of the Jojo fandom,
there's really no other way to describe this.
It's bizarre!
*evil laughter*
But the hair looks very good.
But the head might be too tiny for my taste?
That's especially noticeable when you lift his head up. Wow, that joint sucks.
But if you so choose...
You can remove his head,
Which is kind of tough and his hair poked me a little bit,
ah shit-
And you can replace it with this head.
Egh, it takes a bit of doing to get it in there...
Awesomely sculpted smirking face,
but it still sits awkwardly on the neck.
He's also got a bunch of other accessories.
Out of the box it's kind of tough to get his hands off, BUT-
Eeerrrgggh--!!!
There ya go.
In addition to his fists,
you get a pair of chopping hands,
open hands,
pointing hands,
and a pair of pinching hands.
what's he got these for?
Well...
simply put any of his hands up to his hat, and you could recreate Jotaro's iconic hat tipping pose also known as the-
Yare-yare daze..!
I may not have watched the show.
But I do know the memes.
I also have a crippling addiction to the internet. Please Help.
Now it is possible to get the figure standing on his own, but the feet are usually too tiny to-
*sadness*
That's why this figure comes with a stand!
"Is that a Jojo refere-"
No, it's an actual stand you FU-
The base of the stand even has the Jojo logo molded into it.
Very nice touch!
And of course the stand makes POSING the figure that much easier.
"Wait, you said POSE!"
"You mean like, Jojo po-"
NOOOO!
Head can look up that far, and look down that far!
Maybe a little more down than necessary.
Chain just, dangles around
Shoulder joint's just a bit too tight but if you RUB it furiously enough to generate heat... (or just use a hair dryer)
You can eventually...
*JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO*
There you go!
And you can rotate it even further.
Some forward and backward movement.
Arm moves out.
Bicep swivel.
Bend at the elbow.
Wrist swivel!
Can move up and down,
and if you rotate the peg, which i do not recommend you do,
you could get some side to side but I'm not even going to risk it.
Ball joint at the chest.
Allows for an arching back,
and a crunch.
Every ball joint can be-
ORAORAORAORAORAORAORA
Swivel at the waist.
Hinge joint here,
gives you a better look at his..."belts"
And the hips are a bit strange.
There's a hinge joint that allows the figure to kick forward but not that far,
and it can move back that far,
BUT! You can also rotate this hip joint,
and instead of the leg moving forward,
You get a beautiful spread!
*AAAAAAHHHH* You get a beautiful spread!
Thigh swivel!
Which allows you to get a higher kick,
if you don't mind the leg being sideways.
Double bend at the knee.
Up and down at the ankle.
A pivot,
and a toe bend.
And the stand has a hinge joint,
hinge joint,
hinge joint.
Posability on this guy is pretty good!
But I'm not a fan of this hip design; I think a normal ball joint would've been better.
But even with that little issue,
The joints and all of those alternate hands
allows you to recreate some of the more famous Jotaro poses.
But there's a special pose that requires a few special parts!
(stepping into the elevator) But there's a special pose that requires a few special parts!
(elevator music) First of all, you gotta switch his hands out
(elevator music) for these stumps...
(elevator music) and that's just a bit terrifying.
(elevator music) next you're gotta remove the top of his thighs,
(elevator music) and replace it with these special jean parts.
(elevator music) now the pockets on his pants are a little deep;
(elevator music) deep enough for you to SHOVE his STUMPS in there!
This is a very clever feature!
As for the size of this guy, he's pretty standard.
HERE'S
Figma Madoka Kaname,
SH Monsterarts Godzilla,
Masterpiece Optimus Prime,
and because I don't have another Jojo related figure:
the Maketoys Meteor.
A third party
Star...scream.
That was actually a Jojo reference.
Kind of.
*Starscream Voice* ooORAORAORAORA-
*coughs two times*
Overall,
this figure's awesome!
(chu)
"Ahh!"
I would definitely recommend you pick this up if you're a Jojo fan,
I'm sure you guys can't have too much Jojo merch.
Might as well add this guy to your pile of trash.
He's a bit pricey for the size though, not gonna lie.
And I've gotta give a big shoutout to
Thank you guys so much for sending me this figure!
And if any of you guys want me to talk about a franchise I've never heard about,
Go ahead and send your figures to
And you particularly rabid Jojo fans would be glad to know that
I'm actually interested in watching Jojo.
I just don't really know where to start so leave it in the comments below and I'll watch it in 4 years.
The list of shows that I have to watch is almost as long as the list of things you've sent me this month!
I'll see you next time!
"...so if you like it a little bi-""
