That Jazz is absolutely magnificent. Could benefit from some Repros and it's a bummer we can't door-wings, but otherwise, it's a sure buy from me. ;)^

If this Jazz could do the door wings, it'd be an automatic buy from me. As is, I may still pick it up if it looks good in hand, but personally it's not a priority, especially with Kingdom going on at the same time

I'm so happy with United Jazz. But I must say if they gave Hot Rod all the extra accessories it's lame that they didn't give Jazz his shoulder weapon at least...pretty lame :HASBRO:

That being said maybe :HASBRO:

will milk fans some more and release another repaint like Centurion with another wave of accessories and included will be Jazz's shoulder weapon eh? :-P

Hot Rod's a Voyager class figure with a different parts count that can be used for additional accessories, Jazz is just a Deluxe class

Is this the only Jazz coming in the near future? I mean in all lines, not just SS?

I assume so. I wasn't surprised he was skipped in Earthrise and Siege because he had just gotten a figure in PotP. I think this is what we get.

Who knows what will happen post-Kingdom, but I'm not expecting a retread of the '84 cast since they were so well represented in WfC.

I like this jazz I dont really mind the lack of door wings, considering they're going for more cartoon/movie accuracy over original toy accuracy. More couldve been done for articulation or accessories but I like the overall look and the scaling with the other updated G1 bots

Never say never, rumours are that if Kingdom does well, each generations line after will be 50% G1 50% other. Though I think that thus Jazx could have been easily put in Kingdom but was knocked other here

Nah, I don't feel class should be an issue. It's the principle IMHO! :VEHI:

Look like plastics are worth more than gold.

I still can't forgive the fact that I had to pay 80$CAN just to have freaking ROLLER for my Optimus. #-o

Also, Jazz never had his shoulder cannon in the cartoon (unless I'm mistaken), so the design team probably couldn't care less. Just like Marvel Ratchet's red helmet. :HEADHURTS:

And Grimlock's sword. It's also why jazz is wingless. But isn't this what people wanted? The toys being like the cartoon?

Okay he didn't have it in the cartoon mind you but what's right is right! :-P

A good point. But nothing can ever make everybody happy, and transformers is no exception.

im glad they found a way to not have door wings as that how the original animation model was
this by far is the best version of g1 jazz since g1 a little help from reprolabels and it can be perfect

Good news, Bayverse SS fans!

Tonton reviews has SS ROTF Bumblebee and will be reviewing it later today.

Not only does this confirm those other listings (in which Jolt and DOTM Dino were also listed), but considering that Tonton has it now it can’t be that long (Like, not another year) until they’re released - making me think that wave 2 of SS in 2021 will be Bayverse

Also, while they did remold the grill for the ROTF Camaro, they left the space between the lower grill and the bottom of the car yellow instead of black (indicative of the DOTM Camaro and not the ROTF one).

New SS Bee:

ROTF Camaro:

9735A9DB-F687-466B-9398-F56CE0AB5C3E.jpeg

DOTM Camaro:

03FD177F-38E7-418C-ABEB-1C37C0D02621.jpeg

It’s literally a 5-second fix with paint, but I thought it was worth pointing out.

EDIT: Now that the review is out, we can see that they did actually paint that piece black for the center part of the grill, but not the side pieces that form the robot mode chest.
