Here his spoiler is on the lower back covering his hip. In the movie his spoiler in robot mode is on the back behind the head. Only one part that I would say he is not right is the spoiler. Besides the color metallic silver is darker and those additional brown colors, his robot mode looks very close to his CGI design (unlike BB which failed at several points, and Barricade who is close but his hip joints design is bad). He is about half a head shorter than HA Bumblebee which looks right. Jazz’s robot mode looks even nicer in front of me than his stock photos. Lastly, flip up the head and do some detail adjustments, and he is done. But it is okay after a few transformations. One of the windows is very stiff at the first time that I fear I would break it. The car doors are now his forearms, and you need to flip out the claw hands and fold the windows in. Pull out and rotate the grill which becomes his chest. Rotate the front part and flip out the engine which is his stomach. The not so comfortable seats are now his feet. Extend the back part of the car and it becomes his legs. But once they are out, the transformation scheme is very smooth and well designed. The first step is to pop out the hood and trunk, and this is the most difficult part since the panels are very tightly connected. Transforming him is fun and I managed to do it without peeking at the instructions. Overall, I can’t deny that this is a very nice looking car. Also he does not have the realistic looking seats for the human figures to sit and drive but they all fit in there well. If you look at his interior, it looks very mechanical compared to the other two I have. Besides he can roll around smoothly and the two doors can be opened for human figures to sit and drive like other HA figures, his hood can also be opened thanks to his transformation design and that gives him kind of Alternators touch and feel. He looks very busy from the bottom but that's a common issue for the HA line. This car has a little bit paint scratch on the front bumper but strangely that actually makes the entire car look more realistic. It would've been much better if Hasbro can just simply add those. Also the tail light above license plate and two circle signal lights are not painted as well. He does not have a license plate which both HA Bumblebee and Barricade have. The Pontiac logo and two tail lights are in red, but there are some missing details on the back. All windows are in clear blue and the front lights are clear. This toy is very detailed and the metallic silver paint is nicely coated on the body. The look of this car is great if you ever see it driving on the street. Comparing to what Jazz should be and used to be as a Porsche Martini, Solstice is not a bad choice as a small sports car. Jazz's alternate mode is the last Pontiac, Solstice. Since I'm very satisfied with my previous two HA figures (Bumblebee and Barricade), and his product photos looked very good (unlike Sideswipe), plus being a Jazz fan that I haven't had any of his toys and the new classics design might have to wait until next year, I bought him right away when I saw it on the shelf. After another three years, like the disappearing Barricade who still kept getting new toys, and even though Megatron wanted him in two pieces in the first movie, Jazz also has a new toy in the highly anticipated Human Alliance line. When he finally came back again in the 2007 movie, I totally dissed his new design and never bothered trying to pick up his toys. Jazz is a character I like so much from the G1 cartoon. They easily them up to focus all their fire on a single, huge Decepticon, and bring him crashing down. Though the two soldiers have only just met, they are both experienced fighters, used to working in synch with others.
