His face (apparently degraded from mold usage) now has a strange unintentional smirk. The chrome feet have been narrowed, omitting two tabs. Generation 2 Jazz is a slight retool and (literal) repaint of the original toy. Accessories: Photon rifle, missile launcher, 2 missiles.The customer-applied stickers are the same as the original release, and thus did include the "Martinii Porsche" decals for the windshield and rear spoiler. This version is mostly identical to the original toy, but it uses the Cookie Crisp edition's factory-applied door stickers that lack the "Martinii" logos. Jazz was reissued in Europe and Australia in 1990 as part of the Classics line. (Legends Bumblebee has Pretender Jazz's gun.) however, it happens to be Bumblebee's laser pistol. More information on Classic Pretender Jazz at TFU.infoĪvailable exclusively at American Kmart stores, the Legends version of Jazz is simply the inner robot of the Classic Pretender toy without the shell or its accessories, leaving him only a small handgun.The shell is armed with a large black rifle (given the dramatic identifier of a semi-automatic ion pulse gun, according to his Tech Specs), and when Jazz is stored inside, it can also hold the smaller robot's photon rifle, thanks to the weapon's multi-width peg. Jazz's two-piece Pretender shell resembles a human in a blue and white armored space suit with a removable helmet. He is armed with a black gun (named only a "laser" in his instructions, but identified as a photon rifle in his Tech Specs), which can mount on his roof in vehicle mode. Accessories: 2-piece Pretender shell, helmet, laser, rifleĬlassic Pretender Jazz is a highly simplified version of his original toy, still transforming into a Porsche 935 Turbo.In a just world, Jazz's Pretender shell would look like Richard Roundtree.

This mold was also used to make (the originally Japanese-exclusive) Stepper, later renamed Ricochet for Hasbro's reissue. In an undocumented feature, unpegging the hands from the shoulders in vehicle mode gives the figure working steering. The significance of this is still unknown at this point. The packaging for the Milton Bradley release of Jazz in Germany, France, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Spain sported an additional "Porsche" remark after his name. Like all his 1984 brethren, Jazz gained a heat-activated rubsign in 1985, added to the right-hand side of his hood. In robot mode, he is armed with a silver photon rifle and a shoulder-mounted, spring-loaded rocket launcher that can fire three silver missiles.
Like other Autobots who sported similar "sponsor" decals, however, Jazz's stickers deliberately misspell his sponsor as "Martinii". He transforms into a Martini Racing Porsche 935/76, specifically the Martini-sponsored 935 which won the first circuit of the 1976 World Championship for Makes, the Mugello Circuit. Originally a pre- Transformers Diaclone Porsche 935 Turbo, The Transformers Jazz was part of the original assortment of Autobots released in 1984.
