"Legends" Jazz
Alliance: Autobot
Identification: Autobot Legend
Year released: 1990
Accessories: laser rifle
Comments: This was a figure released during the final years of the Transformers figures. It was exclusive to K-Mart and is named (in price guides) as K-Mart Legends Jazz. It also is one of the four total K-Mart Legends exclusives. The Jazz figure is the least impressive of the Legends figure (mainly due to his plain colors). However, he does hold his own as a legend and deserves a place in this toy line.
The Jazz figure is taken directly from the inside of his Pretender shell (in the Pretender line). His car mode is exactly like the Jazz we know. It has a neat design and shows off the classic look! His robot form is a little cheesy and stiff. But still passable.
Unfortunately the colors are a bit bland. The white is too plain and really distracts from the figure's appeal!!!
Oh well....in 1990 it was just nice to see Jazz again!! Worthy of a purchase and worthy on any classic legend shelf!!
