It took three years, but finally we have a figure that does Jazz justice. The Pontiac Solstice is the sixth character to join the ranks of the Human Alliance Class. His Human partner is Captain Lennox who comes with a bike. Not an Arcee sister, instead the bike acts as Jazz's rifle in robot mode. And much like any Human Alliance Figure, Lennox can interact with Jazz when in robot mode. Among the many unique gimmicks of the Human Alliance class, Jazz has a movable facemask! Check out the galleries for Jazz and Lennox by clicking the links or pictures below!

HFTD Captain Lennox

What would Transformers be without toy variants? The Hunt for the Decepticons will feature Human Alliance Bumblebee, whois identical to his original release. However the Sam Witwicky that comes with Bumblebee is a 100% new mold which has a white shirt, instead of a black shirt in the Revenge of the Fallen version. You can check his gallery out below!

HA Jazz is a fantastic figure. I'm really impressed with him. I really hope they do a G1 repaint! :grin:

great pictures as always, Seibertron!

The wheels on the motorcycle fold back for the cannon. It's not in the instructions and the back one is kinda hard to move, but it looks a lot better that way.

I saw Peaugh's review on youtube and totally fell in love with this figure. Too bad it won't hit our shores till the holidays/spring. I can't afford to import one right now

I updated the story to reflect that Sam is a new mold altogether, not a variant or repaint.

Thanks for getting this posted Blurrz.

Looking forward to getting Jazz, though I find Lennox 'driving' him a bit weird.

Did Sam shrink?!

Yes, it's a new mold so that he fits better inside of Bumblebee.

I really like that idea. Makes sense that they changed it. The old mold is kind of a pain to get in and out of BB's alt mode.

Only reason I'd pass is because of how I'd know that. Although I plan on two Gen-Thrusts when I finally find him on pegs (which I'm a little disappointed about not doing yet, since I've seen wave 1 of the PCC 2-packs at Frys Marketplace the last 2 times I was there), I don't see the point in doing the same for HA Bumblebee.

He seems like a nice figure, but I just put the rest of my HA stuff into storage to open up some display space.

Seems a bit silly for me to grab him.

I'll wait and see here.

That is so bought on site!

This looks like the best HA figure by far at this point. The damned thing looks amazing in both modes. I really can't get over hox good his bot mode looks. It looks outstanding.

I wasn't a big fan of the movie Jazz but this HA Jazz is great. It's fun the bikes wheels can act like gears in gun mode. Rolling one will spin another, too. The product photo on the back of the box shows him holding the gun with left hand which I tried but is impossible unless making the gun upside down. Guess HASBRO flip the picture after taking it.

I didn't think of that! Great, now I'm gonna be dissapointed that they didn't make one!

a deffinite must buy

Posted: **Wed Aug 04, 2010 8:52 am**

i only want him if I can get the cigarettes and lottery version. I stopped collecting Human Alliance figures after Hasbro screwed everybody with Mudflap. I didnt even see him for sale at Botcon in Orlando. A kick in the ass to everybody that Bought HA Skids thinking they were going to have the twins as a set.

Posted: **Wed Aug 04, 2010 9:24 am**

How does HA Jazz stack up against HA Barricade? which is the best between HA BB, Jazz and Barricade? Sorry i dont include Sideswipe since i think he is a some what of a complete failure for the HA line, because of theres a half of a car on his back.

Well since HA Sideswipe is being re-issued as Shadow blade SS, what are the chances of HA Barricade being re-issued as well??

I didn't see any HA for sale at Botcon, besides the original Bee....

I'm still gonna get Jazz though, if I see him. Overall I love HA.

I think Jazz is better than Barricade, and Barricade was previous favorite. Both work extremely well because the "Human" aspect is minimized. Jazz has very few places to mount Lennox.

He's already out. I just picked him up from a target near Houston.

the only gripe i had is that the windows that fold down seem very very fragile. They popped out very easily and, upon closer examination of the hinges, look like they can break very, very easily. They had the spidering/cracking effect deep in the blue plastic of the hinge.

other than that he's awesome!

hmm...the best mold in HA series...

BB has the ugly seats hanging on his arms. Jazz doesn't. In fact, he doesn't even have a seat in car mode and his interior looks very mechanical.

Barricade's legs cannot move freely due to the strange hip joints. Jazz's legs move so well.

Jazz can flip up the hood in car mode, BB and Barricade can't.

Jazz has two hands. BB's right hand is a gun. Barricade's left hand is a spinning spikes.

Jazz looks super busy from the bottom in car mode, everybody does.

Jazz does not have a licence plate :-(

. BB and Barricade have.

Maxpower011's comment on the windows is very true. I was scared to death first time when it happened. The other part I don't like is his claw hands. But that's the movie designer's issue.

Overall, he is great.

I live in Canada dude. We haven't even gotten any of the new generations or HFTD deluxes yet. In fact we only just got Mudflap about a month and a half ago.
