Human Alliance Jazz is a remarkable figure. Hasbro has really outdone themselves with this larger, super accurate and detailed Jazz figure. When I first broke him out of his cardboard prison, he begged me to repaint him in his original Generation 1 color scheme.

Jazz's features/upgrades:
- Chrome rims
- Articulated hands (c/o Zildjian)
- Super glossy white paint job
- Custom racing stripe w/ metallic blue
- Custom decals

That's killer man! The graphics are well placed, and don't override your paint job. And you're right, this figure is awesome.

Hell yeah man that looks really nice! I passed on this figure because of the fat thighs, tiny knees, and thin fore arms. Your pics make most of those flaws less obvious. I almost want to get one now.

all "fixable" depending how you pose him. The elbows are actually double jointed, so you can bend them at another spot, allowing the front to be the "flat" part. The thighs can be thinned out by posing the rear fender around to the side a little.

thanks guys

Thank you for that info Mike. I'll be picking him up when I get some money again.

Don't the instructions say to have the bumper halves on the sides of the thighs?

Regardless, this figure is too well done to pass up because of an insignificant quibble like that.

Very excellent! In what is sure to be a sea of HA Jazz customs coming up (myself included :shocking:) this one is sure to be a standout. Very impressed with the decals, they are prominent without being overpowering to the paint job. The bike/blaster is conspicuously missing, bonus item perhaps?:cool:

This is gorgeous. Jazz will always be iconic about what the transformers are all about.

It's like my wife said a while back:

They took the two things that little boys love the most and put them together: cars and robots.

Nuff said.

Then they even did one better: Dinos and robots. But it all started with cars and robots.

Get him. He is one of if not THE best HA figures. And you can find cool poses to hide the flaws. He has no gimmicks that ruin the figure like the canon arm on BB and the left hand on Barricade.

This is just beyond awesome! Are there any transformation problems with the new hands?

I was thinking on doing the same with mine.
Now I'm sure.

I'm guessing this was a commissioned custom.

This is too cool dude. Like the custom G1 style colors scheme.
