My First Transformer, lots of funJun 29, 2007
By R. C. Stanley
I've always wanted a transformer, now that they're back I bought Jazz. I selected Jazz since he doesn't look overly scary and according to other reviews he has a cool transformation. I also liked the fact that he doesn't have an evil looking gun, I told my kids it was a fishing pole. They didn't believe me, but I can try right?
I've never transformed one of these before and it took me several tries before I could get this one to transform reliably. (Note: I am not mechanically inclined.) Getting the arms into positing was hard for me. It made me wonder if I should have gotten the version for four-year-olds. It has instructions that made sense AFTER I figured it out. I managed to pop a piece off of it while trying to get it transformed, but it popped right back in again easily.
Overall, I like it. It's fun now that I understand how it works.

 Movie Autobot Jazz: One Very Cool FigureMay 27, 2007
By Jefferey Bowman
"TransFan Since 1984!"
Transformers Movie Deluxe Autobot Jazz
Pros:
Nice transformation, feels like he stepped right out of the film with it.
Great overall look, in both vehicle and robot modes.
Considering how stocky he is, articulation is better than you'd expect.
Cons:
No weapon storage (this really, really irks me.)
Forearms aren't sturdy (...they're just folded panels, literally.)
I'm gonna jump right to the weapon issue....
It sucks. Sucks like an Oreck, Hoover, and Dyson put together. He has no weapon storage (like Bumblebee's missile launcher/tailpipes, or Ratchet's roof rack/capture claw) and it looks really stupid mounting the gun to his spoiler in vehicle mode. Plus when you look at the gun, he has a set of notches on the top of the gun that make it look like it snaps in somewhere...(and it does, just not where you'd expect.) so you're all excited, and then you see it doesn't attach to the vehicle. Sad
In robot mode, where the shield pops off from the roof, is where you snap the gun in for storage in robot mode. (Problem is, why would you attach your weapon to your shield? Wouldn't you be using it? Who designed this? Seriously?!)
The instructions also do not show you this at all...
Now, about Jazz himself...I wouldn't call him perfect, but excellent comes to mind. I can forgive the arms (even though the fact they're just panels folded over one another...) but other than that, surprisingly he's one sturdy mofo.
Lots of excellent detail on this guy as well...I'm truly impressed that they could show this kind of detail on a Deluxe Class figure.
His poseability certainly isn't going to win awards anytime soon, but considering his construction...it's quite impressive.
The pictures just don't do him justice...at all. You have to actually experience him to fully understand his coolness factor.
His Automorph gimmick involves his head and chest. When you fold down the windshield, his head (which is attached to a spring loaded plate) automatically moves upward, and during this, another mechanism forces the nose of the car forward, and folds the turn signals in a bit. (it's so neat watching it do that, it really is like you're holding a piece of animation in your hands...)
His eyes are lightpiped, and they actually work. A little too well because it's so clear, it actually makes his head seem a bit hollow...I think a darker colored plastic would've worked better in this department.
I can't wait for the other Deluxes, and I'm sure they'll be just as good, if not better in some instances, and they're yet another great part of this increasingly cool line.
I definitely and highly recommend Jazz, and say he'll be a favorite in collections. (Not all will feel that way of course, but he's one of the better ones out there.)
B+ 3.5 out of 5 stars. (Those arms, and that darned gun were enough knock down the rating.)

ravage 24/7Oct 12, 2011
By Ryan M. Lutz
"blood vamp"
Jazz is one of the best deluxe transformers in the movie line!I actually think Jazz looks alot cooler in the pontiac solstice mode compared to the G1 version.Jazz has a simple,but sleek design that is just awesome in either mode.There is great articulation in the legs,body,and head piece.Jazz is very realistic in either mode also to match how he is in the movie.Jazz comes with some sweet weapon features like a telescoping sword/gun for shooting down any decepticon attack and the spoiler section acts as a shield in robot mode for some defensive protection.The poseability is one of the best with great stability for acting out battle scenes or displaying this gem where you please.The durability is excellent as well with secure joints and a solid build in either robot or pontiac solstice mode to handle any situation.The transformation level is intermediate meaning if you have plenty of experience with transformers there is mid-level difficulty.If you are a parent buying for a child of 5-6 or younger you might have to help some in the process.Jazz honestly though has a very versatile and managable transformation all ages should be able to handle.The process starts off with the back part rotating down and underneath the front section.The same section then swings straight down with the lower parts where the wheels are sliding out.The same sections then rotate around with the feet folding out.The hood on the front splits into two sections while the front wheels rotate upwards to end up forming the arms.The top sections of the cab and spoiler then rotate down to rest on the back while the head piece is revealed in the same motion.The spoiler section can attach to the shoulder if you prefer a more battle ready look.If you are a fan of Jazz this is a must have for fans from the beginning or just starting out.Bottom line Jazz is a well-made,high quality,10 out of 10 transformer all fans will enjoy.I highly recommend Jazz to all transformer fans and collectors alike.Jazz Rocks and Transformers Rule!!!

A 6 1/2 year old's reviewAug 13, 2007
I like Jazz a lot. He is very easy to transform and sturdy, and he looks very sleak in car mode. But the bad thing is that the gun does not come with a missle. The good thing is that the gun can come out farther and look like a sword. This transformer makes you a little bit bored because it is too easy to transform. Another good thing about it is that no important pieces break and the spring in the chest doesn't bother me. But sometimes part of arms fall off (the part that is attached to the hands). Also, sometime the back of the car in car mode doesn't go all the way down because the legs push it back up.
Kids could buy this one. It's pretty good. It's my favorite movie transformer that I own so far, but not as good as the Generation 1 transformers.
