I Love The Concept Of Human Alliance - Human Alliance

[@fen4554]

The Jazz is hands down the best Human Alliance imo. I've owned him for a decade and he's been in my primary display that entire time, because he looks so good in all his modes. The way he transforms, he displays very well mid-transformation as well. (going car into robot)

[@spofman]

and yet i cant find him for anything under 80 dollars😢

[@synthesize1986]

the jazz

[@thelosersside5622]

I honestly like him better than the MPM because of the fCKIN SHIELD THAT TURNS INTO A FREAKING MOTORCYCLE

[@seanclapper9965]

Human alliance scales pretty well with the mpm's and oversized KO's. Got human alliance bee right next to black mamba oversized mpm dotm prime and dotm leader Ironhide. Looking great!

[@morgandavis4012]

Ironically, the Human fifures are actually a nice visual scale with the current Generations figures.

[@caelinator101]

I always felt human alliance scaled well with the old larger scale leader class like rotf optimus

[@pizzaruby5140]

I love the little turnaround at 3:04. Legit made me think you got him to stick to the ceiling :'D

[@TerminatorTheory]

*Human Alliance Skids and Mudflap are so good, they are nearly Masterpiece material! They scale well too!*

[@raynekraven]

I have them both to call them masterpieces is a stretch but they are pretty good still

I hope they re realese's some off thease figure's in the Buzzworthy Bumblebee toy line🤣🤞

Would be cool if they came with human figures molded in transparent plastic as like hologram drivers (kind of like the pilots that come with a few of the Masterpiece seekers).

[@handoftheallspark7154]

[@Astronopolis]

I’ve got Bee, Jazz and Barricade. They paired really well with leader Optimus and Ironhide, was always annoyed there was never a large enough Ratchet to fit in with them to round out the main cast!

[@lilithofthevoid4922]

6:43 the saw goes underneath and you can use the hinge in it to swing it out to the side

[@afzalhakimbinzairini956]

The Human Alliance line is the mini masterpiece version and one of the best toylines ever. They come with mini human figures, awesome gimmicks, spring loaded weapons, and they're lot of fun. Jazz, Bumblebee, Barricade, Skids and Mudflap are the best one to pickup. Sideswipe and The Wreckers are probably the weakest ones but not all bad. Overall I miss the Human Alliance lines and I want to see this line again in the future. Maybe with Transformers Rise Of The Beasts movie hopefully we can see the Human Alliance line again in their toyline. Like the good old days of Revenge Of The Fallen and Transformers Prime toyline.

[@jorgedontola092]

Actually, this line was meant to be a modern version of Alternators. On the size issue you mention, is not that they are too big, they just belong to a different scale. Alternators were exactly 1/24 versions of the character's vehicle forms. Human Alliance dependes on the character, but is meant to reflect a similar scale close 1/24. A good example is Sideswipe, who in vehicle mode looks identical in size and paint as a die-cast replica from Jada Toys (there is even a KZbinr that customized his HA Sideswipe using that car to make it look like a DOTM version). The best way to know is by taking measurements in vehicle mode. Bumblebee is close to 1/28 scale and I understand why: he would be even taller if they made it 1/24 (people forget how big the 2006 Camaro was). Another figure that matches well with this scale is Leader Class DOTM Ironhide (he is 1/29 scale in vehicle form). So, you just need an oversized Optimus Prime and you have a good cast of characters right there. I'm also planning on getting all this figures and pose them next to die-cast 1/24 scale versions of their vehicle forms. The Masterpiece line and the main movie line from TF 2005 and ROFT are close to 1/30-1/32 scale. After DOTM they got close to 1/38.

[@user-fg9fb4yi1u]

I'm curious if the human alliance lineup height is similar to leader class lineup or not? 🤔

[@jorgedontola092]

@@user-fg9fb4yi1u again: depends on the character. Leader class Ironhide goes well with Human Alliance. There is a Leader class Bumblebee which is too big and closer to 1/18 scale. But, in questions of height, most HA figures are mostly as tall as a regular Voyager figure from the old days.

[@user-fg9fb4yi1u]

@@jorgedontola092 thanks for the answer 👍

[@user-vq8bn2zs3p]

Sideswipe is a bit of a pain when it comes to the car mode roof transformation. There is also a locking mechanism with the hands and the rear wheels for a spinning gimmick in robot mode which you just have to remember to unlock for vehicle mode. The Epps it comes with is fine, sometimes though it is hard to fit Epps in sideswipe's seats

[@spartanvenom5388]

I know the roadbuster looks a little weird but it was the only human alliance figure and one of my first bigger figures I ever got when I was younger,so I have a lot of nostalgia for it,also my favorite color is green;and I still have this figure with the chainsaw,blaster thing with fire missile,but I don’t have the human figure and at some point the front half of the mini gun in vehicle none broke off. 6:40 Also the saw is supposed to go on the bottom and be able to stick out from the side using the hinge on it.

[@TransformersMCfan6]

Got human alliance jazz at TFCON for $20! And he fits perfectly with the 2007 movie cast! Really thought human alliance was almost like a cheap masterpiece line, with exquisite detail and scale

[@itstrulymystic]

I have that human alliance black bumblebee. It’s soo nice and I’ve had it for almost 10 years!

[@salazarzeleth3354]

I had sideswipe and he was one of the worst human alliance figures ever the whole top of his vehicle mode was just on his back but his feet were fun to transform yet hard to stand on

[@RogueTwo]

I did did love these when they came out. The Transformers themselves were pretty awesome, and very much reminded me of Alternators. But I really loved the human figures. Something that I always wanted since I was a kid was human figures who could interact with my Transformers at a more or less accurate scale. But as Human Alliance ended, and the toys of the Generations line gradually got smaller, I realized that scale no longer worked and put them away. Titans Return was the last straw as the Alliance humans towered over the human-sized Titans. A shame, but I accepted it.

[@itsyourboileancuisine5971]

Jazz is hands down my favorite figure in my relatively cheap collection. Got him nearly complete for $25 American and it is soooooooooo good.

[@TheRealQuenny]

The human alliance bumblebee was literally my favorite childhood toy, I got so sad when I lost it

[@deang5386]

I got back into collecting with the Alternators in 2004. So the fact these are basically movie Alternators had me soo excited. Wish we has gotten a few more figures. I've got Bumblebee, Jazz, Roadbuster, Leadfoot and Soundwave

[@Toon_Lucario]

Human alliance Jazz walked so MPM Jazz could be ripped in half. Also from what I’ve heard Sideswipe is awesome

[@OptimusMonk01]

Human Alliance and Alternators were together the best transformers line ever made.

[@novicetexan9476]

8:52 is that the Alternators Swindle?!👀

[@drewo.127]

3:19 As someone who loves Stop Motion, which technically is play as I move the figures a whole lot, I think this Jazz seems like the all around best one for the job! Not saying MPM can’t or shouldn’t be used for stop motion! I just personally feel more comfortable with working with this figure (I’m considering buying one to finally test it out) as I’m too nervous about breaking or scratching Masterpiece Transformers!

[@ACRolla101]

I have the Human Alliance Jazz. Kept it in a ziplock for years and it doesn't even have any corosions on the screws and metal bits. It has survive the test of time and it only has minor scratches. Lost the Lennox and ammo for the bike tho. I also have the Human Alliance Bumblebee. Didn't kept it in a ziplock so it has all the corrosion on the screws and metal bits.

[@TFN_Araque]

6:20 to answer this question, it’s a design from the film, the studio series version has it too

The road buster saw plugs onto some pegs on the bottom of the car. You can have it sitting so you can’t see it and it’s hidden or so it’s coming out of the bottom. Also the headlights in vehicle mode have those little dark grey pieces and they turn around to become guns

[@Novaprime64]

From what I remember from my collection, I had the bumblebee, Skids, Sideswipe, and Barricade, my favorite was between the sideswipe and barricade as the whole package (robot car and transforming) but my favorite of the cars stand-alone was skids and favorite robot stand-alone was bumblebee

[@OtakuUnitedStudio]

I used to have the Human Alliance Wreckers and really loved them, but then they never made Topspin. Meanwhile, Leadfoot got shafted on the Deluxe release. Can't win no matter what you pick! The saw goes underneath in car mode and can flip out to the side, BTW. IIRC the feet on Bumblebee can either be switched or flipped so that you can rotate his lower legs and get a more accurate robot mode. The prerelease promo pics show him that way, but the final version apparently decided to swap the feet to save a step in the transformation.

[@kzya111]

I have Sideswipe and Soundwave, I unscrewed Sideswipes roof so he’s more movie accurate, Soundwave is cool except for his legs, they are the WORST

Does your Human Alliance bumblebee's head fall off? Or perhaps I got a defective copy. I remember getting Bee within the year it came out. But it's head fell off to much, it's shoulder rocket was also misassembled.

[@IronAvenger2k05]

Ha bumblebee has been my stand in for mpm for a long time. On an unfortunate day, I was transforming him and the plastic bar that goes between the shoulders and allows the car front to come out, completely snapped off.😢😢😢 i superglued him into a standing up position but he can no longer transform or really pose. I may ask for an mpm one for Christmas but I think I need mp 36 more

[@rolvirata9003]

Human Alliance got me back into Transformers. Before Combiner Wars, I only wanted 1/24 scale transformers to match these. That meant Alternators and oversized KOs. Now I am into the main lines, but also look out for figures that fit the human figures. Putting them next to 1/24 non transforming cars makes them look even better.

[@Brandongriffithmakesart]

[@shiny9690]

Whoever designed the Jazz figure saw Hasbro/Takara Tomy refusing to make a good Jazz figure: *Fine, I'll do it myself.*

I remember this line but for whatever reason, I didn't remember the humans being as articulated as they were. I had this weird mental image of them having waist rotation and maybe arm rotation, but were otherwise glorified slug figures. My memory is weird like that.

I was 4 when these things came out and I had Bumblebee and Jazz, I didn’t break figures because I was young and threw them, the bumblebee lasted a few years, and the Jazz suffered the same fate as the movie one, when I was like 6 or 7 a friend and I were arguing who played with it and it got ripped straight in half.

I owned both the bumblebee and jazz lost the jazz when I moved and on Christmas day when I got the bumblebee I was like five maybe six I had no idea how to transform it. I asked my brother to, and he broke it before I even got to play with it.

I love the jazz human alliance toy. Bumblebee human alliance is okay but for some reason the head wants to pop off on both it and the night stealth version and I have real fun time like I do with jazz with transforming barricade.

If possible, you should try and get HA Barricade. He's easily one of the best Barricade toys ever. You'll need to shave chunks of his hips off though if you want to fully spread his hips out, because those plastic chunks get in the way and keep his upper legs awkwardly semi-transformed and spread in an A-pattern.
