"And may the schwartz be with you". Now if Hasbro will just give us a Rodimus Prime (or someone else) with that altmode

Or even just a motor home altmode, period.

Personally I'd want to see a bus, either a yellow schoolbus or a public transport modern bus design.

Here you go

Blot looks amazing, and I can't wait to get dem Terrorcons!!

With wave2 barely available here, though, will it be a hunt to get them too.....?

Abominus is looking nice. Might have to get him.

Sur is angry purism in here. Next you'll tell me Transformers was RUINED FOREVER the moment the Autobots got more than cars?

Don't. You'll summon...him.

In truth, Diaclone was RUINED FOREVER by Transformers!

Diaclone? Hah! Microman was ruined by micro-change

Jazz was repacked in to Wave 3. Can anyone tell me if it has THE tampo? I have had mine, unopened, and sitting in a closet just in case. If it's EXACTLY the same, I'll just open the one I have.

I'm hoping that tampo has been fixed too, but it's probably going to be a while yet before we get solid confirmation one way or the other, honestly.

thanks for sharing / featuring my cideo reviews. i really appreciate it. and thanks for the warm welcome into the Seibertron community. cheers !

I've seen Jazz in stores recently, but I couldn't see where the tampo on him since his arms are packaged with the car kibble side facing the cardback away from sight, hiding that side behind the robot mode sides of his arm.

I doubt it'll have been "fixed". Not that it should be changed, really, it's such a minor detail and honestly the joke is pretty harmless. So Jazz is a Republican, so what? Perhaps he just respects people's right to free speech. Besides, he's obviously keeping it discreet in the form of a tiny Cybertronian decal on his door rather than pushing it in people's faces. Not like it's a gigantic logo slapped on his hood.

The phrase has taken on a much more offensive meaning than what it was original intended for, so its presence on this toy, regardless of it being written in non-English letters, bothers people.

I mean, would you still feel that it was harmless if it had been something like the F-bomb or a derogatory insult word that had instead been written in Cybertronian letters?

You can get a look from the side of the bubble pack (the side that isn't textured, that is). You can't make out exactly what the lettering is, though, but you can see if the tampograph is the same, e.g., a black square with an Autobot insignia and four tiny "letters" below it. Honestly, I don't think we're gonna know what's what until someone is brave enough to buy a Wave 3 Jazz and open it up.

Exactly. The phrase has taken on a life of it's own and has become a kind of "catch all" slur of sorts the alt-right uses to attack practically anyone else. It can't be treated as a "harmless" political campaign slogan anymore.

Here's a radical idea for all of you who bought a MAGA Jazz but find the thing reprehensible: grab a tiny bit of white paint and gently apply over the tiny area this tampo occupies. It's not like this mess is Hasbro's fault so people don't need to not buy Jazz to 'make some sort of statement' as they themselves explained what happened. Just remove it from the toy yourself.

There. Your Jazz is now DRUMPF-free and we can move on without spending 15 pages over this all over again.

Would make more sense to use black paint or just a permanent Sharpie. It's a black square with white lettering below a white Autobot logo. And yes, it would be easy to do such, but I'd support Hasbro making this correction by buying another Jazz figure that doesn't need to be modified as such.

And know their general stances they most probably fixed that figure.

Did they ever say if they found the person who did it?

They said it in their initial comment. We dont know who, of course, but hey claim to know who it is.

You picked the wrong topic to get back on track, buddy, because I've never seen a toyline catch so much crap.

Discussing a PotP figure in the PotP topic isn't on topic? It was even in the news here.

Fine.

Anyone find a Star Wars Black Series Tarkin? He's avoiding me.
