I've got like.... most versions of that mold. Not all of them are floppy, mind you- Jazz is just the worst. But for the life of me, I can't figure out WHY they didn't make a way for his chest to lock into place.

I have the SG Stepper version, I'm also surprised they never had the chest lock in anywhere

Y'know what'd be really cool? If whatever Jazz they end up making in Earthrise or Part 3 ends up having an option to have door wings or not, whether it's removable door wings or if they fold out of sight unobtrusively or something along those lines.

Not for nothing, the Jazz on the box has door wings.

Dang. Care to post a picture?

This part?

Honestly, I kinda see more Prowl there... Then again, the two of them have very similar body types with the hood chest and door wings (on toys)

Also, I might be in minority on this but I preffer the vehicle mode on CW Cyclonus. I really love how loooooong that nocescone is. It really reminds me of that perspective shot we get in the 86 film when we first see it transform during the transfiguration scene.

I also enjoy the vehicle mode on CW Cyclonus, and wish the nosecone on the new one was longer, but honestly the idea of a potential upgrade kit for this new one to give it an IDW head and sword is much more interesting to me, as well as up my alley. Plus, even though I liked the purple used for CW, this new one looks much better, even without paint

The old Generations Jazz is nice enough and the PotP version is acceptable.

But based on what they did so far in the current trilogy, I think a ER Jazz would be freaking awesome.
I'm looking forward to it.

Wondering if Cyclonus and possibly Soundwave are not Earthrise but the rumored Studio '86.

How does that even work, if Generations has been the GeeWun lineup? Seems redundant, but oh well. Cyclonus looks AWESOME.

Thrust pretty much sealed me buying Screamer yesterday. I love this mold. No regrets. I love its relative heft compared to the original Classics and its *just* diffetent enough in its tricks. I need some missile pods for it though.

Maverick is probably gonna be a buy on sight. Not enough Jet Autobots. My initial impression though based on the character art and the panel lines on the figure are that this is going to be more in the Studio Series Movie style which is sad but also not an unfitting way to do it.

Can we say "SDCC2020 Orphan?"

POTP Jazz is a floppy mess of thin plastic.

Exactly.
He look good in both modes, but it's a bad limb and he's not fun to handle at all.
