![]() Hasbro says they're investigating this and it would not be a surprise to see Jazz ship again later - but as to if the toy will actually have a running change remains to be seen, given Hasbro's spotty record on altering toys for later shipments. There are also two slots near the back which plug in to tabs for making his leg mode.Ĭonstruction issues aside, this toy courted controversy with a hidden message, in very small characters, under the Autobot symbol and just above the word "Energon." It reads as "MAGA," which is - to say the least - a politically charged message which has inspired many a fan to purchase this toy and some paint thinner, and a few others to just wait for a running change. In addition to rolling wheels, the toy has 3 5mm pegs on top and 4 smaller foot pegs for Prime Masters and Titan Masters. While it may not be perfect, it's a better toy. ![]() The white paint fairly closely matches the white plastic, but I'd be lying to you if I said I liked this car mode better than Special Ops Jazz from a few years ago. Once it's painted white, it's just a little too thick to hold together well, resulting in a gappy car that doesn't hold together particularly well. The bulk of Combiner Wars toys had no clear pieces, so this means that the tab/slot form fit can have problems - a bare plastic slot/tab would fit. Jazz is mostly molded in clear colorless plastic, painted white in spots. The problem is how it all fits together - the transformation is simple enough, but the problems start with the toy's materials. It's not quite the original Porsche, but the racing marks are close to the classic 1984 release. ![]() I'm not saying you should skip it, but just be prepared to have problems with it. It's not the worst thing you'll ever buy, but as of my writing this it seems to be the potentially most fragile "Combiner Wars"-compatible limb with more than a few form fit problems thanks to someone engineering it poorly. This is, to say the least, a bizarre and out-of-place release - on a variety of levels. Immediately upon release this toy became a lightning rod for controversy thanks to a hidden message on the toy, but things got even weirder because the toy itself isn't exactly a gem. There are good toys, and then there are toys like Autobot Jazz.
