Why is wheeljack the only one who knows that this is a video nowadays? I mean on other stop motion channels he was self aware. WHEELJACK IS TAKING OVER
"Do it with style, or don't bother doing it..." Studio Series Jazz is quite possibly the best representation of Jazz we'll ever get at official mass retail! I dig it! Now, will someone redeco this into Stepper/Ricochet? Time will tell...
It is nice being a transformers fan without being a vehicle enthusiast. The downside is I prefer transformers Cybetron style more outlandish designs rather than these realistic altmodes, and lately toy lines have been heavily bias...
I feel ya. I mean, I like the real world vehicles too, of course, but the crazy designs are what I really want. I mean, I keep wishing they would lose their minds and put out ANOTHER Six Shot.
Hell yeah. Don't get me wrong, realistic vehicles are nice, but that's what we've been getting for YEEEEARS. TF vehicle modes just need a bit more pizzazz, you know? ...but then again I grew up with Cybertron so I might be a bit biased in that regard.
I don't hate the PotP mold, but I like it with the Ricochet repaint more than I do Jazz. It's just the dark colors look more pleasing on the mold to me than white did.
@@SwiftpawWolffox THIS... Except I wish Toyhax would do a conversion sticker set (AND MAYBE a 3-D printed head), to convert Ricochet/Stepper into Gobot Crashur!
Personally I still dislike POTP Jazz (I think the whole prime wars Trilogy toyline was over all bad) but there is one element I like about the POTP Jazz are the back of the legs. Hasbro should have used the back windows to fill out that area which would have also solved this figure's knee problem
@@usa-jy5ox Shattered Glass Dubstep Dubstep? I don't know that one? is he new to this universe? **Purple Jazz walks in*** ooooOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhh
I know it's not accurate by any means but I painted the bottom of Jazz's feet a dark grey (a little darker than the top of his feet), and it already added so much to the overall aesthetic since it broke up all that white of the car mode. As it is, SS86 Jazz, while it indeed has its faults, is perhaps my favorite TF figure of the past few years.
Helicopter Jazz was pure Electrum. I drop by for the extensive detail and the excessive humor and I haven't been disappointed yet. Also: Thanks for the tip about the ER Datsun boys. I've had Barricade for a few months now and never once noticed the notches for the mirrors behind the front fenders and inside the doors. As soon as you mentioned it I dug him out to see for myself and sure enough! I tightened his posture and it holds so much better. I can't believe I've done him wrong all this time!
WOW! Nice videos-and LOVE the VA doing Optimus' voice, the recreation of the commercial bumps, and the humor. Optimus sounds SPOT ON! Looking fwd to more. Thx.
I agree with you, I think it over all is great. Him being a vehicle guy, I also understand. I hate he started with the complaints then ending with them.
This is the one time where i look forward to the commercials on a youtube channel. I love how optimus is always the last to know about various resources. God bless
Wow, the new Teletraan's looking great. :) "If there's one thing that Hasbro's been getting right lately, it's the head sculpts." My God, Kingdom Dinobot is beautiful... 18:59 - You ad-libbed that, didn't you? You were just gonna do a standard waist-rotation, but about halfway through you thought "...Hey... THIS could be funny!", and went on from there, huh? lol 21:33 - Ooooh, slick! That's your baby right there.
Honestly the spoilers for heels is actually quite fitting knowing how jazz is and what in concept jazz is based upon(like a 70's disco hero) so the heel style works great as heel shoes
This was a terrific review! I had a huge smile on my face the entire time, and everything you covered in the video was so well done! The skits were hilarious (the bit with Omega Supreme and the Mario jump sound in the transformation had me cackling), the advertisement where Wheeljack broke the fourth wall was well done and funny as well, and overall, I just adored the review. So glad I subscribed to you.
Props for the sick b-boy animations. I've been going back through your reviews since your announcement... thank you for all of these, they were truly awesome
Sometimes compromises have to be made, it looks pretty damn close so enjoy and those Toy Hacks decals really up the level. I'd be really jazzed to have this Jazz!
OMFG, I loved the bit about the uncanny valley. I was actually going to include a similar segment in my review this week, but the chart I ended up with didn't look similar enough to make the joke.
13:40 No offense, but I don't fold the roof cause I'm afraid of breaking the clear plastic. Yes i know the factories have their reasons, but I just wish there was a way to work around it. I'd take painted windows any day.
At 16:39 - Looking at both backs, I would much, much prefer the door wings, windows folding down to the inside/back of the doors, and the back glass to stay at the feed rather than fold up. Truer to the original toy and the backpack would be less busy, and the transformation would be a bit more like the original without all the folding up. Still, it is impressive what they did to get it so clean, I just prefer transformations closer to the original toys.
@@masterfarr8265 the only figure that gives off siege energy is Grimlock because of the liberties of the character design and the quality of the plastic, and the 5mm holes. But this figure feels extremely cheap and does not have those 5mm holes that define the siege line
Ayyy! Been waiting for this! Love your stop motion, it’s honestly incredible how much work you put into your videos, why you don’t have millions of subs I’m not sure
Really needed this video. Usually I'll read TfWiki for any QC issues but this helps easy my fears on transforming the guy without snapping his hood off! I Appreciate it!
Great job on the Wheeljack costum! Oh... I get it, J as in Jazz, and 14 because that's the number they decided to put on it. It's like B-127 but the number acually makes sence!
I know that you calling Netflix Bumblebee "Masterpiece 3.0" is supposed to be a gag because it looks better than both previous Masterpiece figurines (and you're right!), but given the price gauging via scalpers buying up our little buddy in bulk, I'd reckon he costs the same as an actual Masterpiece figurine now.
Love the video! The skits were hilarious, and I hope to see more from you! Keep up the amazing work Mr. Eyebrow! I've been trying to hunt one for months lol
Damn, this dude really loves that car. I'll buy 1/24 models for all the G1 cars because I want them to be accurate in alt mode. For the planes and tanks I'll have to settle for 1/35 models.
This figure is so much better looking in bot and alt modes, it's close enough to the oroginal Porsche that i love it having wanted one pf those since the 80's... it's what i would call a modern update to an old design that looks really good...
Got this guy today and he is far superior than the jazz we got with POTP, his transformation was a bit tricky at first but after transforming it a few times you get the hang of it quickly, no cracks on the clear plastic yet (and hopefully never). 10/10 for me
Just finished my customizations Gold rims, flat gunmetal vents and headlight inset, silver headlights and windows, additional blue stripes, red bumper, toyhax, and I managed to cut down the side skirts, you don’t notice the jank with the door stickers on top
The gappiness at the back of the lower leg could have easily been solved by putting the rear windshield on a hinge near the feet. An idea obviously not put into practice, though who knows the reason why.
I also heard that the "14" number was meant for people who want to customize this figure. If they wanted to get a purely G1 toy deco they could mark out the 1 to just have the 4 there. However, the G2 figure of Jazz had a 1 on the door so they could mark out the 4 instead if they were going for that deco
Jazz has been my favorite character since I first saw transformers. The Bay verse jazz I had a blue and red version called smokescreen but I called it jazz. Sadly my brother broke it when we were playing together. When I watched G1 I loved Jazz even more. I got this 86 jazz and I wish his knees would stay pegged in because everything else is fine regarding the clear plastic. If anyone finds a solution please tell me because I would like to make my favorite figure close to perfect.
I know it's not cartoon accurate, but I wish the modern toys let you give Jazz proper door-wings the way the Datsons do, like his G1 toy and character profile art. It just looks cool, and I always thought his shoulders looked naked without them. And the shoulder launcher like Wheeljack. I definitely feel like Jazz got the short end of the stick animation model wise. I get that we had 3 Datsons, and countless Seeker repaints, but still, they did Jazz dirty in the cartoon.
Im happy with my SS86 Jazz, im really liking the New Transformers line. Like you said, theyre miniature Masterpiece without being too expensive. Great Review as always!

Well, he's pretty much the closest thing to Rick Sanchez in Transformers.
Except he has a 50/50 chance of his inventions working.

Now that's a optimus voice way betterrrrrrr than the Netflix optimus voice 😳

Go go gadget helicopter! Nice Lego blaster.
The breakdancing into transformation animation at the end was excellent!

This looks like a good figure, especially with the Toyhax, but the RTS mold will always be my favorite Jazz (Even though I don't have it yet xD)
Yeah, I think I really wanna get that one too!
I had it, it's pretty good. Kinda regret selling it lol
THIS IS MY ALL TIME FAVORITE JAZZ TOY!!! I never got a Reveal the Shield Jazz so having a Jazz that actually looks like his Generation 1 vehicle
As a major FoC simp, I LOVE the use of his transformation sfx

Dude, can't wait to hear you talkimg about SS86 Grimlock... have I ever mentioned how much I like your reviews? This one's no exception
I love the 86 jazz & toyhax def gives us the perfect G1/toon jazz
You've got to voice optimus prime in the Netflix series minds and sparks will blow with amazement
That final transformation was f**king amazing!
Sometimes compromises have to be made, it looks pretty damn close so enjoy and those Toy Hacks decals really up the level. I'd be really jazzed to have this Jazz!

Why did you have to show the animated scale chart 🥵
Love this figure to death! But I’ve heard of the Roof cracking and completely shattering at times.
Wow the Optimus Prime voice is close to Peter Cullen
We need an official Masterpiece G1 Jazz. Studio Series G1 Jazz ALMOST looks good.

HE’S NOT A DISK JOCKEY
Still I think it looks pretty good! I do agree about the clear plastic tho.
Dude that animation was smooth and made me have a jolt of energy
ya like jazz made me burst out laughing, and I very rarely do that

As someone who isn't a car guy at all, it's very interesting to hear your perspective

I definitely feel like Jazz got the short end of the stick animation model wise. I get that we had 3 Datsons, and countless Seeker repaints, but still, they did Jazz dirty in the cartoon.
On the one hand I agree, On the other hand, I like the variety. There's a lot of bots with door wings
The 14 on the doors also references the fact that the Porsche 935 diaclone figure that became Jazz was the 14th car robot produced and released.
that Iron Man 2 skit also works for Mirage in RoTB.
Laughed at Netflix Masterpiece 3.0 Bumblebee. Planning to review that figure, or did I miss it somehow?
