SS86 didn't do it for you? Supposedly that's as close as we'll get to MP.

Outside of the issues of clear plastic (heard it was a when, not if on that mold), ideally I'd want a Jazz that has the option of door wings or no door wings like that one 3P figure. It's probably never going to happen in CHUG scale, but I'm fine waiting indefinitely :lol:

Understandable. And I have yet to even open mine...is the clear plastic problem that bad?

As for the new figure, by the looks of the packaging, it'll be on the smaller side, like Bee was. Jazz should be taller than Bee.

That Jazz figure looks like a lot of fun! And he looks good! I love my origins Bee, so i will gladly take this guy to go with him.

I mean, he was good, but I would hardly call him the best. And this puts a whole new spin on it thanks to the cybertronian alt.

This is what Siege should have been.

As someone who does not care about Jazz whatsoever I LOVE how he looks! Precious as heck. Hopefully his backpack isnt too hefty and i can snag him onsale for $12/15 bucks like I did with Origins Bee

I think this looks fantastic, I only really got the Jackpot retool of SS86 Jazz along with the Knock-Out retool and while I did like that mold, I didn't get the Jazz one (Not sure why.)
I really dig the Cybertronian looks so I'm glad we're still getting some post-Siege.

Oddly this robot mode looks like a better Jazz than the SS86 version. I'd like to see this retooled into another Earth mode Jazz, I'm crazy, I know.

No, more variety is always better. While I don't think this new Jazz looks better than SS86, it does the job of giving us a good representation. Just like with Bee, the alt mode was the main focus while the robot mode was designed to fit the alt mode.

I love that Origins Jazz is comparable in size to the original G1 Jazz.

this also makes me wonder how Hatchet, Hound, and NEST Ratchet fit into this, are these guys now all a "wave" of Buzzworthy?

Wow this looks great! I already have 86 Jazz but I'm sorely tempted to double dip!

Oh we're doing more figures based off the G1 pilot? Cool, then finish the Welcoming Committee Seekers with the tetrajet mold please Mark.

Happy for anyone who wants Jazz (and probably Wheeljack in the future) though!

I'm still surprised they released the rainmakers but not the welcoming comitee. Love Jazz, hope we also get Wheeljack. With him and the missing seekers, all onscreen Cybertronian alt modes would be done, since we got Soundwave and Laserbeak during Siege.

We did get Hotlink, at least.

Not only that, but his kibbles are much more clean than Origin Bee.

I honestly didn't think they'd go down this route again, as it appeared as id Origins Bee didn't perform all that well before finally selling out. I'm glad to see they went ahead with Origins jazz because he looks great! I'll definitely get him if he's as easy to acquire as the recent 4-pk with Goldbug.

One thing that did always bother me was that his front end still resembled a Porsche despite being an Alien from another world and having a completely different alt mode while on Cybertron. lol

Hope this subline continues with Wheeljack next!

well if you're familiar with the theory that the WW2 Germans were in contact with aliens then Jazz having a Porsche look might not be all that surprising :lol:

or do Porsches have a Jazz look 8-}

Looking forward to the Wheeljack if/when they do him and maybe the Trailbreaker from the Ghostbusters comic!?!?

What's the scale, he better be a deluxe, and I mean real deluxe, not scout class with two weapons instead of one deluxe

Given that he's the same size as SS86 Jazz, he's a deluxe.

While I also want Wheeljack, the quickest retool of this Jazz mold is Bluestreak, from "And There Shall Come...A Leader"

Ideally they should remold the chest, but only a new head would be absolutely necessary.

No, I thnik Jazz will be a solid case since he isn't SS or SS86, just liike Orignis Bee, Silverstreak and Toy Terrorsaur. Remember all the previous SS Buzzworthy deluxes were either a mixed case of individual deluxes or the vs 2 packs. I think the SS Buzzworthy wave will be Hatchet, 86 Hound and NEST Ratchet with one of them being shortpacked.

This sounds accurate, though there's also the rumor/theory/speculation that Hound is part of the upcoming two pack.
