Super Minipla Announces Next Release- Chojin Sentai Jetman’s JET ICARUS!

under Super Sentai

The next entry in the highly popular Super Sentai Minipla series has finally been confirmed!

This time, the Minipla makers will actually take a few steps BACKWARDS in Sentai chronology- to 1991’s Chojin Sentai Jetman! The fan-favorite avian Sentai soars once again, with a release of the main Mecha Jet Icarus! At the moment it has not been stated if Jet Icarus will be the ONLY Jetman Minipla released, but based on previous entries in this series other Jetman Mecha seem very likely.

Sadly, no price or release details have been revealed at time of writing. Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all Super Minipla reveals!

    Damn, was kind of hoping they'd make the Mega Voyager before moving on

    Nice, looks good.
    The question remains though... will there be any fan brave enough to paint Jet Condor green and call it Jet Eagle.

    These two things are simultaneously true:

    - I have never particularly liked the design of Jet Icarus.

    - I will absolutely buy the minipla version anyway.

    A minipla of Jet Icarus? AWESOME.
    Really hope they do GoGo V's Victory Robo sometime in the near future.

    Victory Robo is so odd. I never much liked the design until I actually started watching GoGo V, and then it was pretty much the robot's combination sequence that won me over.

    I looked over a video of the DX Jet Icarus today: same deal. I'd never been super-excited about completed robot, but the DX is surprisingly solid from the back, something I'm not used to with Sentai robots anymore. All the jet mecha have some impressively elegant engineering going on, both to make the robot form look complete from all angles and to make a similarly coherent Icarus Haken. I've seen some tank-mode combinations in Sentai robo that come off like an afterthought, but Icarus Haken looks very much deliberate and thought-out.

    If they continue the pattern, it should be roughly 3 releases or so away. Since they've been doing alternating past to post-zyu per release. With the Zyu ones forward in order. That'd put it sometime into next year's releases potentially. With Dairanger being the skipped because of engineering for now.

    I mean, if you ignore Ohranger and Caranger and come up with a fake reason for Dairanger not being done, it fits your "pattern", sure.

    But yeah, this looks cool. I have no love for Jetman, but I know a lot of people do, so it's nice to see Toei throw bone their way. Me, I'm just reminded how much I want that Galaxy Mega.
