Jazz was the first toy I bought in the toyline. While he's not the best, and yeah I do think the transformation is kinda weak, I still like him. Could be better but not bad either.

I had to pick him up first, Pontiac's my favorite car company, and I've been drooling over the solstice ever since it came out. My main complaint about him and all the autobots, is, well, they aren't alternators. I honestly can't believe they didn't make alternator versions of the movie figures. I mean they have a liscense from GM to make toys, and thats what alternators are all about: liscensed vehicles detailed as models!

I have a lot of complaints about the movie toyline, but I'm still buying them

His forearms do, in fact, suck. His claws are tiny like the Penguin's from Batman Returns.

With a little kitbashing (Doc Ock's claws, a couple pieces of sprue) he looks much better.

Do you have pics?

Jazz was my first transformer in years. Before the movie came out, I only got him because I love Pontiacs, hence my name. I love the Solstice, it fits me like a glove.

But after buying a few others, his charm wore off. Yeah, I don't love his arms, and I think his lower half looks like it could support Ironhide more then a small car bot. I also don't like his scaling. His alt form is bigger then Barricade and Bumblebee. I know anything smaller would be dumb, but he really shouldn't be as big as he is.

Otherwise, I've custom painted him and he looks great to me now. But it took that extra step to bring him to life.
