The JAZZ-A-Palooza?? | #transformers Generations/POTP/SS86/Origins Jazz

[@Renkencen]

It's weird that we never got a "Siege" version of Jazz? I guess you can used the Origin version to go with the Siege/ WFC collection or the SS for Earthrise collection too?

[@uainjansun]

True

[@Renkencen]

@@uainjansun I assuning they didn't make a Siege version cos of his name? Granted I'm aware he goes by "Autobot Jazz" but maybe it wasn't enough?

[@uainjansun]

​@Renkencen idk why i always thought we were getting one for that. Ik the next one is the SSWFC one

[@primusvsunicron1]

thats what I did with Origin Bumblebee, Origin Jazz and Origin Wheeljack

[@metalicman6795]

If I were to guess, I think maybe the line's more mature aesthetic probably led to him not being put in, considering he's a very light hearted character that wouldn't fit in with the dark tone of Siege Especially the Netflix trilogy, though he probably would've made it 100 times more bearable if he was in it

[@Springboi9832]

2010 Jazz: shooting deceptions Also Jazz: Blasting “The Only Thing They Fear Is You” from his gun

[@Duckofthedragon]

Jazz got torn in two again. You went full Megatron on him.

[@uplego13]

I love how beefy origins jazz feels and looks despite how small he actually is

[@jaydenklassen2567]

For a second there, I was wondering why origins jazz didn't have wheels until he transformed into a handheld vacuum cleaner.

[@MilesDashing]

I think he's a hovercar when we first meet him on Cybertron. Still, they could have given him tiny wheels like on Blurr.

[@Lukusprime]

Haha now I can’t unsee that

[@nathanmartinez4856]

POTP Jazz is what got me back into transformers. I agree it's not as good as it could be, but I love the thing

[@Ghosta_]

Jazz is my comfort character

[@IMosuGoji]

5:02 NO I WANT TWO

[@Soundwavedits2012]

RTS Jazz is just such a classic

[@sabregunner1]

Agreed

[@Jazz-cd5mu]

That specific gift set repaint of RTS Jazz is probably my favorite single Jazz toy in my 60+ figure Jazz collection. Something about the colors chosen plus all the awesomeness of the RTS mold is just pure perfection for me. However, the new boxed set Jazz is probably the closest a figure has come to dethrone it for me. Right now he’s sitting on my shelf and I’m just constantly in awe of how good he looks. It really is like he just walked straight off screen.

[@MilesDashing]

It is an impressive translation of screen to toy, but IMO the end result is a plain and boring toy. RTS Jazz for me every time! I'd rather have a toy that I enjoy looking at.

[@dialNforNinja]

It's kind of amazing how much PotP Jazz makers me think "This looks like Jazz!" while not actually looking like Jazz.

[@Tyson-EXP]

I was initially put off by RTS Jazz's weird chest too before having it in hand, but I was surprised to see It's an incredibly easy fix. If you apply joint tightener to certain parts of the automorph mechanism it adds enough friction to prevent the chest from moving even if you don't hold it down and transformation isn't impacted at all. Ankle tilt aside, and the chest fixed he's basically the perfect Jazz for me since I tend to lean more to stylization over cartoon accuracy for G1 designs. Plus hearing about the studio series Jazz's roof made me steer as clear away from it as possible.

[@MilesDashing]

I never had much trouble with the chest myself, and I got it used. Weird. He's my comfort Jazz.

[@Tyson-EXP]

@@MilesDashing I instinctively tend to hold figures by the chest whenever I'm posing them, so when I actually had it in hand, I can't really say it was much of an issue for me either. I just did the fix to see if it was possible for the hell of it, and it turned out it was.

[@RaymonZX200]

Jazz is my boy by far one of my favorites alongside Sandstorm

[@EternityKingdomsHeadHoncho]

Ultimate Gift Set Jazz is peak Jazz.

[@mrgodzillar6403]

I have orange jazz. Who i affectionately call circus peanut jazz 😂

[@KrisPSouls9258]

Man you made me realize I have so many different versions of Jazz. I like the FoC but it's still in the package. Almost all are except the G2 one I have. Lol

[@theguywiththegoatee7801]

I've got a shelf that I use for special "group poses". I've got Buzzworthy OriJazz standing with Legacy Soundwave and 35th Anniversary Optimus and Megatron to recreate the Knights of Unicron band from Aligned. They're all using their weapons as their instruments

[@MilesDashing]

I don't know what that is, but it sounds AWESOME.

[@theguywiththegoatee7801]

@MilesDashing back in the WFC/FoC era, they released a box set of Optimus, Megatron, Jazz, and Soundwave with extra accessories that made them look like a parody of the band KISS, called The Knights of Unicron. I believe that they are the ones that canonically wrote "You've Got The Touch" and "Instruments of Destruction" in-universe. So now I've recreated this set with new modern figures, and I'm calling it their "Knights of Unicron SIEGE (and Buzzworthy!) reunion tour"

[@fennekin1750]

Jazz is one of my favorite Autobots of all time. He deserves more attention in media. I've only got SS86 Jazz atm and hes just *_nice._* Really good Jazz; one of the best. Origins Jazz is super cool; would be cool to have him at some point. RTS Jazz just _looks_ *_nice_* in both modes, but hes not the best holding together, etc, but everything else is great; I really like the bot and carmodes' designs. Don't have him, probably never will, but still; hes cool. POTP is just....ehhhh, alright. I do really want Autobot 5-pack for everyone, excluding Jazz; having an extra Jazz doesn't hurt, tho. Also, I *_NEED_* Jazz in EarthSpark and more shows!!

[@spawnytheistic]

Power of the primes Jazz was the first figure I got when I started officially collecting. I’m glad you like him though because I literally threw mine away💀

[@stan_the_war_man]

I have a soft spot for that PotP Jazz, it was the first figure I bought myself and 4th transformer I ever owned

[@callumcrane241]

Generations has the best Jazz design. It needs an update. I hear they used the RID15 as a base line for Legacy Cyberverse Windblade. if they can do that for Generations Jazz, I'd so get it.

[@MilesDashing]

RTS Jazz was my comfort toy for a while. I missed him in stores somehow, and was really happy when I got him for a reasonable price on eBay. I prefer the door-wing look, even though it's not toon-accurate. Mine is hard to keep snapped together in car mode, which is why I eventually cracked his windshield. I guess he's the murdered version from the attack on the shuttle now.

[@coffeeinhandproductions3238]

RTS is still my favorite, Never knew the speakers could combine with the gun. Blasting memes got me pretty good. Really excited to get the Gen Selects 86 Jazz as I never got the SS, but I do have the Knockout iteration which I think is still pretty great. Honorable mentions. Animated Jazz. Also I remember Cybertron Crosswise getting the Jazz treatment at a point.

[@Loremastrful]

Ah another Jazz Band! Since Rise of the Beast, I've been more accepting of Jazz variants. I have Animated, SS86, Mirage (aka Jive), Ricochet and PotP. I've been working on an intro music video for the bunch to Chainlink Charge but haven't found a version I'm happy with. I was thinking about adding a WFC Jazz, but what you said made me think twice.

[@2BoogerFace]

2:40 Now I'm scared of ever touching him again.

[@MilesDashing]

Come for the nice toys, stay for the trauma.

[@KwakyWacky]

You can sandwich the top of the gun between the shins in vehicle mode, letting the back of the car balance on the gun handle and making it look like it hovers, it also means the paint on the shins won't be damaged

[@justanoxysm]

2:48 i was not ready for that

[@coconutproductions5056]

One other cool thing with RTS Jazz is that he can actually store his weapon in robot mode as well! Same exact spot as the vehicle storage

[@kev300k4]

Jazz is my favorite character and yet my main jazz is the power of the primes one and my other jazz is the fall of Cybertron jazz. I need to get myself a better jazz figure

[@CharlieEiland-ym2rt]

I would suggest 86 or origins if your going for a g1 style

[@sabregunner1]

86 jazz if you want g1 earthmode jazz. I have several versions of him. Can't go wrong getting the 86 mold in its various paint schemes and origins jazz

[@MilesDashing]

SS 86 is objectively the best version (as are most of the SS 86 toys), but my personal favorite is RTS.

[@sabregunner1]

@@MilesDashing i agree with both parts of this statement.

[@optimistprime3192]

And now we have another gift set 86 Jazz with the upcoming Autobot Headquarters 😅. POTP Jazz was the first Jazz I ever had; even with all the joint tightening I had to do, there’s a soft spot in my heart for that one, kinda like that “comfort toy” feel you described. SS86 Jazz has since replaced him as my definitive G1 Jazz, and I ended up donating his upper legs to Gen Selects Ricochet since my copy came in with a rusting knee pin that I couldn’t quite fix.

[@internetjesus]

I like all of them for different reasons. RTS/2010 is still my display Jazz. Unfortunately I had the first release SS86 Jazz and he’s as durable as a wet tissue. I have the G2 Dorito Jazz and I adore him. PotP I like because I use him as Masquerade Optimus’s limb. And then there’s the Origins. My god. What a solid figure. Probably one of my favorites from 2023. The stupid alt mode is still charming as heck and both modes are SOLID. I don’t know what black sorcery Mark Maher did to create a perfect Jazz toy but damn I want some of that juice.

[@FANTA0909]

12:12 “car car car and S H O E .”

[@mot10n285]

I have a soft spot for power of the primes Jazz too :D, he may have flaws but he isn’t so so bad. The alt mode is a beaut and the robot mode is pretty cool once the looseness is dealt with. I respect your opinion on him though. Awesome video as always

[@SkunkLifeMedia]

since they are into concept stuff, and even tho we didnt see em on screen, I could go with a slight retool of this mold to give us an Origins Prowl & Bluestreak.

[@BeefSupreme30]

3:02 C O O L V I B R A T I O N S

[@DragmaKerp]

5:03 combiner wars Jazz doing an impresion of 2007 movie Jazz last scene… My favourite is the box set one. For the PoP one, it happened to me the same as you, it was my first “G1” style Jazz and I was craving one for a while, so I had to get it as soon as it was released. Now that I have the 86 and the box set ones… poor pop jazz is replaced… even if mine is not yellowing when others did

[@rane9096]

Classic paint Reveal the shield for me, hands down, 86 being my runner up

[@thebeestingconspiracy]

86 is the modern Jazz I've been waiting for since getting back into collecting in 2008.

[@drmeeran6607]

I i

[@GamerPanda-py6rm]

I own origins too and i think its really smooth and stands well

[@finlayyyyy]

man the new jazz is everything i’ve ever wanted from a jazz figure

[@Itransformit]

Yes, I like Jazz. I had the standard version of Reveal the shield (because I sold it to a young collector who really wanted it and I was like "okay, I like it but he loves it, I'll let him buy it") and it was really good, then I got the Power of the Primes and it was...well...not really good, but I DO like both the robot mode and the car mode, just not the transformation and all that clear plastic. I'll sell it for sure. Then I skipped the 86 because of all the clear plastic and I really wanted Jazz to have the iconic doors on the shoulders/on the back. Then I got the origins and haven't opened it yet because time and life, and yesterday I bought the Autobot Stand United 5-pack so I'll get the better 86 version soon, and looking forward to it because it really feels like almost the ultimate version (but I'll miss those doors).

[@MilesDashing]

Origins Jazz has that really-well-designed shellformer thing that I both hate because it's a shellformer and love because it's a really-executed shellformer. I waited for him to go on sale and then he never did. Sad face. I do live in TO, though, so if you do happen to see him on sale....

[@PaulGaither]

G1 Jazz was the first Transformers toy I have memory of as a child; opening it and figuring it out in the car on the way home. PotP jazz is the only Jazz I own as an adult after getting it on sale. SS86 and the clear plastic was a turn off for me, and I don't care about the Buzzworthy version.

[@fractrr2132]

comfort figure is so real

[@sillyman5796]

I would love a new legacy Jazz, with the articulation that they are putting in the figures, I need it

[@judee.7186]

I got Power of the Primes Jazz and he has been my definitive Jazz ever since. I have felt no need to get another Jazz, just cuz I'm not particularly attached to the character. But, I did cave and pick up the Orange Jazz because I love that color scheme so much, I love me my silly brightly colored transformers. And I also got Knockout because tfp = best transformers

[@J.Y_productions]

Potp was my first jazz and his whole ambrose off

[@mechgouki7999]

Anyway. I finally got Space Jazz. I was initially prepared to write him off and never think about getting him, since he is not my definitive version of Jazz. But after I got Space Jazz, I was like, my goodness, he is so fun to pose and mess around with. His joints are all tight yet smooth. No other figure short of a Metal Build ever felt this smooth and satisfying. 1) We all know Space Jazz transformation is awful. It's only a bit better than Rhinox. Anyone who tells you it is good is straight up lying. 2) His alt mode is simply a shellforming panel former. 3) Some of his articulation is a bit limited. Like his elbows only a 90. And his butterfly might as well not exist. His knees are limited. But that aside, I am not kidding. Space Jazz joints are tight yet smooth. He is so satisfying to pose.

[@mrmanpersonguy5812]

Man, this hurts after reading the new Skybound comic

[@seerus1351]

I prefer the United version of RTS Jazz. Got his colors right and it looks oh so nice.

[@PabloTuCausita]

Hey, it's the thing that 100% deserves to be in the bucket.

[@uainjansun]

I had that POTP jazz and it was the first jazz ive owned since 2010.....yeah i wish i had another different one

[@renced1290]

I can't think of a single good toy to come out of "POT-PEE" save for maybe Moonracer.

[@laurencegoldenstar]

[@carlomalijan8001]

POTP, is bscally just, Crasher.

[@aph1dqueen]

my favorite is the RTS Jazz mold. specifically the United version from Takara. I have 3 different Jazz figures and hes the only one that wasnt disappointing. ot sucks too, because hes my favorite autobot but it's so hard to find good versions of him imo

[@jasongoodman3495]

The OG jazz figure is really neat if you can find one

[@THANATOS-PRIME]

RTS was an amazing figure and one of the last I bought from Kmart for Christmas. Recently got the five pack version and it’s leagues better than my original copy which was already pretty rickety.

[@DragoonMS]

RtS Jazz continues to be MY Jazz, though I'll probably have to get the shorter SS86-1 version, akin to how SS86-17 Ironhide is slightly shorter than Siege Ironhide and scales better with the mighty midgets that are Earthrise Optimus & Classics Optimus. As for that box set, the only one I wouldn't explicitly need is Wheeljack (I have the Earthrise original, the more show accurate box set version is akin to gettin' MP20+ Wheeljack when you already have the original MP20...it's pointless.), so that's a win. I missed out on SS86-1 Jazz, Earthrise Sunstreaker, Earthrise Trailbreaker, and the set's the only way to get what would've been SS86-18 ("Earthrise") Hound.

[@TheBrotherOf-Lockdown-DaGoat]

This is heaven

[@Destroyer1r]

The first time I saw POTP Jazz I loved him! He may not have the best robot mode but I still think he’s cool (I don’t have him btw) I have Knockout and the mold is fun, it’s just a little finicky (that might just be my copy) and the others do look great but I personally actually like POTP Jazz the best…

[@samurexatlas7373]

Guess you're Jazzed

[@michaelclickard6264]

The RTS Jazz I still have, but it's in storage, POTP Jazz I have, but I will only use him as a different character, A character who looks similar, but isn't related to him, I call him Vibe, you know, because he goes with the flow, and how I see him as a separate character, I kinda based him on the Hot Wheels Porsche 935 of the Urban Outaw variants, the white stays the same, but the red and blue are swapped around, this gives Vibe a variety of deco choices. Come on, we can use that as G1 Jazz, it's easy to do, if we have to make a custom version, an easy repaint.

[@reyonXIII]

I used to be a champion of the old United. Then i got my hands on the new United coz someone was selling him and Sunstreaker separately, and now...I still like Takara RTS, but Legacy 86 is so much more fun to play with and transform, even if I miss RTS' superior speakers and gun. Maybe because my RTS was a bum copy with the canopy tabs always being a frightening prospect to detach for fear of snapping the clear plastic.

[@novaexplosion8257]

I still like PotP Jazz, like honestly one of my favorite combiner molds, would be one of my favorite toys overall if his shoulders hadn't gotten super loose over time and the clear plastic hadn't snapped on the back (just one of the corners though, nothing super major). SS86 for me feels worse to handle and just is not very fun, and I just don't like him? Knock-Out I think is so much better of a use of the mold and just works better for some reason, especially in alt-mode> And origin jazz is great, I lost the grappling hook but I don't care too much about it, he feels nice to handle and well-articulated, and the design is nice and proportions are good and he's just amazing aside from kind of not being fun to transform for whatever reason. Wish we had origin jazz with the potp alt-mode somehow.

[@ShocktimusMagnus]

The fact that jazz died in the first movie is a pain in the *jazz* *wheel* see if they make another jazz Of *porsche* origins jazz is the best, it’s so obvious

[@Rusty-Doggo]

You must be bayverse Megatron, cuz you ripped poor potp Jazz in half

[@RodimusMinor1987]

Definitely Origins Jazz is my favorite

[@RatbotReviews]

When I got my power, the primes jazz I was little and it broke on the first day of me having it on both arms, while trying to figure out how his arms worked both of them snapped off his torso.

[@empressmako]

i got potp jazz for christmas. he snapped in half within a few days

[@someones_out_there2668]

I don't know why but when I saw the thumbnail the first thing that came to mind was the ginyu force pose

[@rolvirata9003]

My fav Jazz is the Alternator but just like the G1, its such a pain to transform...

[@esquadishere1010]

Thank you so much you have helped me so much and I subscribe

Favorite transformer ever 🎉🎉 let's be quick lets be daring last one in is a rusty harring- g1 Jazz heck people forget he was primes 2nd in command

[@MattinJapanTFreviews]

TAV-23 Jazz(Transformers Adventure or RID 2015) would’ve been a good comparison too.

[@jeremiahsacks2868]

The tab on my origins jazz's left knee just popped right off when i was transforming it once. But also yeah the first thing i noticed on that thing after waiting 5 months for my preorder was the plastic quality.

[@blueraccoon1088]

0:03 I was gonna ask do we all like jazz?

[@Omar_ZX]

My favourite jazz is ss86 jazz and even without the box set bc that is so expensive where I live that I'd rather wait for jazz to get rereleased but with better plastic someday

[@Nekothetoaster]

5:01 I WANT TWO PIECES!!!

[@waxenjack7032]

Hot take, 2010 is my least favourite. It was a nightmare trying to pose and I personally had no enjoyment having it. Can’t speak on origins, but the other two are solid to me. Potp is flawed, but given that it had to incorporate the gimmick I think it turned out alright

[@ChakatStripedfur]

I'm seriously thinking about picking up the 3-pack with this guy, Teletraan-1/Mainframe and Earthrise Optimus Prime. Even though I already have the ER Optimus, and the Teletraan-1 that came with The Ark, I've been wanting a Jazz figure for quite a while now, and I _need_ a Mainframe. So as soon as I get paid again I'll snag the 3-pack, seeing as I just spent money getting the Rolling Thunder Optimus. Man, pretty soon there won't even be enough room to 'stand' in my room, let alone sleep. xD

5:03 “you wanna piece of me?! You wanna piece!?” “No, I want 2” -Jazz and Megatron 2007

[@CharlieEiland-ym2rt]

I know the first ones chest does do that but I do think that a more g1 paint job would have it appeal to me more

[@PhelesDragon]

My favorite is actually the PotP Jazz. I’ve had exactly two G1-style Jazzes and I genuinely was so disappointed with the origins version.

[@blimbam]

Don't kill me for this, but I honestly like potp jazz

[@NovexusNui777]

RTS Gift Set Jazz has my favorite deco, if a Jazz figure comes out in that deco I'll buy it, cause 86 and Origins I don't like. And POTP, I like the alt mode but it isn't quite my taste. Give me a modern version of the RTS Mold with that deco with a Porsche 918 Spyder style alt mode, and I'll eat that shit up.

[@johnnyscoundrel1]

RTS Jazz is awesome, cuz his robot mode is basically a modern version of the g1 Jazz, minus the shoulder cannon ( original g1 shoulder cannon actually fits on him) Any ss86 version is really cool for cartoon accuracy, just too bad there's going to be three f'n versions of it, and two of three can only be had via multi-packs. Total bs!

[@onemansvideos2134]

You did a scene from the movie ripping jazz in half sucks he was a pontiac in that movie

[@THEeternalllama]

This is a video I have wanted you to do for a bit. Could you do a video on generations drift. (if you still have it) That video is around 7 years old and I along with others, would like to see an updated video on it

[@godzillameister]

What's your opinion of Jackpot from the ss86 jazz?

[@ParadoxFree]

Pretty sure he made a video about it.

[@FearInNoir1]

At least potp jazz is 07 accurate

[@blastbot7339]

ive got POTP ricochet and like the vehicle mode is gorgous and i mean BEUTIFUL the robot mode tho, flimsier than wet tissue paper

[@Sandpaper_Ae7]

Great review!

[@explosion352]

i had the window on my origin jazz get a little crack in it when i clicked it into place and it bothers me deeply

[@det.bullock4461]

Never had issues with the clear plastic cracking on my SS86 thus far, but the peghole is tight enough that I avoided pegging anything all the way. I am not a fan of how Origins figures look, they feel like figures made out of animation errors.

[@GermanFFreddy]

Fun fact: I had a POTP Jazz and his hood/ chest literally BROKE, the plastic split... yeah... why was that plastic so brittle?

[@clxix172]

Hang on, what about Fall of Cybertron Jazz's knees? What's wrong with them? They feel fine on my copy, honestly I've had more issues with the stupid shoulder transformation as my copy of sideswipe actually broke because of the stupid long tab to hold the shoulders in place so I just cut those off on both figures

[@bluray7358]

I need that box set jazz so bad
