Jazz (Movie)


 * Jazz is an Autobot from the Movie continuity family.



First Lieutenant Jazz is one happy-go-lucky Autobot. Good-natured and always able to take things in his stride, he provides a decent contrast to the more serious demeanour of Ironhide or Prime himself. He's also a talker, something Ironhide and Prime like to tease him about. He might be the smallest autobot but he's by no means a coward. His only real complaint is that he gets stuck fighting the small ones.

Ghosts Of Yesterday
Onboard the Ark, Jazz was the first to detected the Ghost 1's presence, and was later badly damaged in a fight with the Decepticons. After being repaired, he and Ratchet fought together against Barricade.

 * Jazz transforms into a silver Pontiac Solstice Custom Hardtop. Included is a blaster weapon that elongates into a sniper rifle, which may also be clipped directly onto his rear spoiler when in vehicle mode. In robot mode, the section featuring this same rear spoiler may be kept folded onto his back or worn on either shoulder as a shield. An interesting undocumented feature is a hinge joint located on the bottom of the rifle can attach to the shield's hinge joint, creating three choice weapon configurations: a) a seperate long range sniper rifle w/ mount, b) an ambidextrous shoulder-mounted canon, and c) a short range blaster with a lower built-in shield akin to what has been seen in Jazz's concept art and in the movie itself.


 * As with most of the mainline toys, he features a Automorphing gimmick that is activated by pushing the car roof down onto his back and locking it into place. This raises his head and slides his chest panels into proper position for the robot mode. This feature, like the weaponry mentioned above, is not documented at all, so one must be careful to not press the chest and the back at the same time.

 * Jazz has a second front bumper located on his car mode roof. No one knows what good that does.


 * Final Battle Jazz (Deluxe, 2007)
 * Japanese ID number: MA-14
 * Presumably this is the same deluxe Jazz figure, with the only real difference being a paint job that represents the stylish look he took on after Megatron tore him a new waste regulator in the film's climax.


 * Autobot Jazz (Repaint) (Deluxe, 2007)
 * A Generation 1 redeco of the movie Jazz mold. Possibly yet another Target exclusive.

 * Smaller than his Deluxe toy and less articulated, this one has a missile in place of one hand. Who knew Jazz was a lefty?

Trivia

 * The packaging text for the deluxe Jazz figure refers to his weapon as a "telescoping sword". As ridiculous as this sounds considering this weapon looks like a firearm, this very idea comes from sketches of a sword weapon featured on the same concept art that has Jazz showcasing the short range blaster/shield combination stated above. Way to compensate text-writing guy!
