With this, my 2007 Transformers movie Autobot line up is finish. Although in my toys, Ratchet and Jazz is having their respective G1 coloring, and the Voyager Optimus Prime is a 2009 ROTF redeco of the same mold, but lets not be too anal about it.
For me, it is always the look that counts. Redeco Optimus certainly look interesting, green Ratchet may be need in movie to be more attention seeking, but Ratchet is always a white robot as I have it and Jazz...
I remember i decided not to get Jazz, even when one day stumble upon a premium version in Anime Tech I didn't but it. Reason being, in his original movie color, which is silver, he looks awful. Even with premium paint job.
There was once I meet the G1 redeco Jazz, but then I haven't start collect yet, and ignore it, thinking the movie's original deco should always prevail. How wrong was I. Recently, while surfing in eBay, I manage to take a deep and long look on the G1 redeco movie Jazz, and the revelation struck my mind - this is it! This is what makes the mold works! This is what that transform a ugly looking fat and short Jazz into Jazz!!!
Even in alternate mode the movie original silver color translate poorly. Largely because it is just one big piece of silver gray plastic. But with G1 redeco, there is more details and variants in color. This makes the car look jazzy and not bland like it use to be.
Now the robot, definitely better. Like the alternate mode, the original movie color is but a big piece of gray plastic. It doesn't have a soul and does not even remotely spell Jazz. But this redeco IS Jazz! True to his G1 origin, with from bumper as chest place, black head, silver mouth price and blue visor. G1 Jazz is also cannot be define as thin and this works well with this mold. Now, this is Jazz.
It as a weapon, a telescopic swords or stick or whatever it is.
The rear part of the car and the spoiler becomes the shield.
Like Ratchet, it has overall a rather blocky feel which is good for transformation and stability, and look less like a movie figure.
The large blue piping for the visor creates stunning effect when the lighting is right. Even the Autobot symbol is more well defined in this figure. The original coloring is a bomb, this, is an Oscar!
