Human Alliance Jazz is an awesome figure. But my modding illness made me find something to fix, namely, his back panel. Didn't like how the wing and taillights sit so far down, when the movie model has them up high. So I took the screws out of the rear panel that makes up his trunklid and wing. After a little trimming around the mounting hole posts on the underside of that panel, and slightly enlarging posts, you can flip the panel upside down (with the wing at the top) and clip it back onto the mounting points, without screws. Do it right and it will hold on by itself. This results in the spoiler appearing at the top of his back, with his taillights below- similar tho not exactly like the movie model. In alt mode the panel just snaps back into place, no muss, no fuss.





Yes, it’s partsforming, but my stance is that if it results in a better figure, thru better articulation, appearance, screen accuracy, etc., then so be it.

While the motorcycle/gun is a clever addition, I felt it would be better to have it just as a gun, so I took the wheels off and cut off the windshield and trimmed some of the other motorcycle bits.



He can actually grab it with his claw-hands, but you have to peg it in place or it will flop downward. Still working on a way to have Jazz carry it on his robot without having to hold it. Not a lot of places to fit it tho.

Comments please, thanks.

I'm one of the few people who don't like this mold (still prefer the original DLX), but I do really like what you've done here & I think this makes the gun look MUCH better.
