    I love all things Jazz, I don't know if I'm super impressed with the face, from this angle I really like the proportions of the body.

    I don't know if I can support them because they called it J4zz.

    that's my biggest frustration, I feel like their entire company should be set on fire just for the name of the toy.

    I saw an unpainted prototype for this a while ago, not bad, but maybe a little too CHUG like for me. I'd like to see a more G1 Jazz, from Takara ideally, but if not hoping MMC or Badcube take a shot at him.

    At least they didn't call him Jizz.

    Full points for alt mode accuracy. That is spot on to a 911.

    I don't like the finish. Looks too plasticy

    Apparently it will be painted pearl white and be about 17cm tall bringing it more into MP scale.
    Which brings us to where we are today...

    Aaaaaaand it turns out I don't know my Porches nearly as well as I thought. It's actually a 991 GT3, not a 911.

    They all look the same anyway

    that's not IDW's design for Jazz (no door wings in their design) so looks like a slightly more modernised version of G1? Not exactly MP aesthetic

    The preorder is up on PC.

    I have no idea how this fits into my collection. Pics of it look very sweet. I find myself wishing the stripes were not there so that we could appreciate that alt mode in its full glory.

    Generations Toys Devastator has looked pretty sharp. Their bots have great head sculpts. But this, I'm a little confused of where they're going.

    It's a similar direction to TransFormMission's Stunticons. MP scaled IDW inspired designs.

    MMC have said they are working on a MP Jazz, but I'll probably grab this too because I like the look of it.
    Which brings us to where we are today...
