Turboman is a Hero of the Twin Cities, Minnesota



Turboman is a fictional hero attached to the Twin Cities of Minnesota.  Although the story of which state was the ultimate home of Paul Bunyan is debated, it is a fact that Turboman's home is Minnesota.  Turboman came to life in the movie Jingle All The Way in 1996.  It is a time stamped, pulse beast movie of the 1990s.  You can see phones connected to walls!  And the ubiquitous white phone with that small rubber antenna.  No doubt, The 1990s will get their nostalgia boom in the next three years certainly by 2020.

The Turboman logo is on the drums and uniforms of the official Turboman Marching band.


Apparently Turboman is a part of the Marvel Comics Universe.  You can see Captain America and the X-Men Pillow.

You can see the limited edition Turboman prop being held by our little dreamer.

Stan Lee made one last cameo in the later prere-release in this movie, to support the role of comic heroes.  When Arnold is in the Mall of America and looking for the special ball, he rides an elevator with Mr. Lee.
