A Jaw Box (Sutakui Bako in Japan) is an enemy found in S.S. Logwater in The Legendary Starfy. They are similar to other green treasure chests that hold pearls at first, but when Starfy opens a Jaw Box, it starts running after him. They are exactly like mimics, which appear in various other video games. They can easily be defeated with a Star Spin. They also appear in "Find Fork" Side Quest. When a Jaw Box is opened, it makes an "incorrect" sound.
Toy description
"It's a treasure chest, right? Spin it and get a sharp-toothed surprise! How badly do you want that treasure? Bad enough to lose one of your 5 arms?" (#068)
Trivia
- The Treasure Monster enemies in Densetsu no Starfy 3 are very similar to Jaw Boxes. They are both fake treasure chests based on mimics, and behave the same way. However, Treasure Monsters are mainly red instead of green, akin to ordinary treasure chests in the Game Boy Advance games.
- A Jaw Box was put in the credits of The Legendary Starfy, chasing after Moe.
Name origin
- Jaw Box is based on jaw and treasure box. Its Japanese name, "Sutakui Bako", may be derived from 'star' (スター), 'kui' (食い, meaning to eat) and 'bako' (箱, meaning box). This is most likely in reference to what may happen if Starfy Star Spins into the wrong treasure chest...
