Cliche answer Optimus Prime after the three part mini series. His easy and mature nature and just being a big powerful heroic truck. He can be defeated but will win in the end. More realistic than being unbelievably unbeatable. Being able to reason and then lead Grimlock.
Jazz would be the guy to hang out with period, Blaster the guy to be with Jazz and you, Grimlock the scary yet cool guy you want if you get into a fight. All three are cool, can fight and can/are leaders of their own groups. Would have Idris Elba voice Jazz and be his human avatar.
Definitely had to be Starscream, he's got a cool design and I loved how much more conflict he added to the show. I think it would have been substantially less interesting if he wasn't in it.
@bigzuu226 even back then as a kid, you really COULD tell that Prime was something special no? Although for me that moment when he screamed MEGATRON! as the Decepticons blasted off to Cybertron sent shivers down my spine and is one of the most iconic moments for me....you could FEEL his anguish.
I think his Fall of Cybertron version also deserves a special mention if only for the fact that he was Bruticus tearing the Ark apart and said "ABSOLUTELY F*CKING NOT" and proceeded to face him one on one when EVERYONE ELSE was terrified, his mere presence boosted the morale of the hopeless troops so much that they coordinated and pushed the Decepticons back, all while Jazz took Bruticus down almost singlehandedly.
Oh that sounds cool and VERY on point for Jazz, similar to how he took on all five Predacons in the IDW comics. Unfortunately I never played the game, which is why I never got the toy either. But thanks for mentioning him! 👍👍👍
Jazz is a character that means a lot to me we I was little girl i love him and ironhide that why it really sad not to see them in cartoons nowadays but just like anyone I still love him no matter what
Could it be due to Jazz originally having such a legendary voice? I'm sure they could find someone who can do a Scatman Crothers voice. As long as they don't copy Bay & use a racist stereotype voice
Another great video. Never owned this guy either. I met Paul Eiding (G1 Perceptor) at a Comicon here in Perth. He talked fondly about Scatman and his entertaining nature and seems Scatman put a lot of himself in this character.
Thanks Audie! Nice to know you got the time to sneak in a video given your new life chapter! And so lucky you got to meet an OG voice actor, they all seem like great individuals and so glad they are finally getting overdue recognition and appreciation for their work!
I dig jazz. When I was a kid He was My favorite and I truly wanted to ask the theater for a refund after watching Megatron rip him in half. Lol just kidding but, I was kinda mad.
Same, it really was such a waste of such an iconic character. And it was like rubbing salt in the wound seeing Bee a few movies later, literally being blown to bits and just casually reassembling himself like it was nothing 😅
Thanks! How is Agent Meister? I'm afraid out of all of them he's the one I know least about. I do remember him being one of the first to be announced but took quite a while to actually come out. By that time I was already happy with Downbeat :)
@@StoriesFromTheToyshelf It was so long ago that I don't even remember unboxing him haha. I just know he's in my MP display with his hook and shoulder speakers. I do love the metallic finish on some of his parts though. It makes the figure 'jump out' more :)
@im2hastyle are you the type to just display? While more often than not my MP TFs are just displayed, every now and then I like to take one down and fiddle around and transform them :)
@im2hastyle cool! While I get that what people do with their Transformers is their business, I myself can't imagine just buying. A Tf and just placing it on the shelf and not doing anything else with it forever 😅
jazz was gonna appear in cyberverse as a female but was cut (jazz was mentioned in the wild wild wheel and appeared in the cyberverse toyline as a male)
As a Jazz fan, I am glad this was shown in my recommended, my first toy that I actually recollect getting was the TF Universe Legends class Jazz, I still have him today, tho it is very scratched up. Later I got the Newage Jazz and it is special to me because it is legends scale, would recommend if you like Jazz. Thank you for making this video!
Glad the algorithm worked for toy and that you found my video! I'm not a legends scale collector myself but man those are some marvels of TF design and engineering. Sometimes even surpassing the MP scale! If I do hit the lottery though...yes Jazz would be one of the first that i get. Out of curiosity though...which legends scale company is your go to favorite? New Age or Magic Square? Or are there any others? Oh and THANK YOU For watching!
@@StoriesFromTheToyshelf like yourself the build up to the movie rekindled my interest in TF and I filled in a lot of the gaps in my childhood collection from eBay!
Jazz is one of my childhood favorites in all of Transformers, I also once bought his ‘07 toy back then, it was one of the many TF toys from the 2007 film I got, such nostalgic memories!!! ☺️☺️☺️😌
i hope to see the other versions of jazz that existed before cyberverse existed as a female, also wonder what jazz would look like as an armada and cybertron character, jazz's shattered glass version is based off of cybertron crosswise
@@StoriesFromTheToyshelf there's a concept art of what jazz would look like as a prime character also when i saw the concept art of prime jazz (cyberverse already ended and earthspark was still around), i wondered what prime jazz would look like as a female, jazz was gonna appear in the bumblebee movie but was cut
@@StoriesFromTheToyshelf Jazz paint job is great. I meant, for a matterbof driving around in.public, jazz may stick out to much with race car numbers going on and Mirage isn't going to be a car that disguises itself driving in the city 😜
Great video, I never had Jazz but loved the character. My favorite g1 cartoon transformer is different from my favorite g1 toy transformer which is still even different from my favorite g1 comic transformer. G1 Cartoon: Starscream - loved the scheming and the voice was so well done. G1 toy: Laserbeak (or any cassette) - fit in pocket could take anywhere easily G1 Comic: Shockwave - basically a better leader than Megatron and had a bit of that scheming that was seen it the cartoon version of Starscream
Thanks! Appreciate you watching :) yes that's what's cool about TFs so many characters to like for different reasons across different mediums. For me I would have to go with Jetfire for the toy, that thing just blew me away! With you on Starscreamc for the cartoon and while I wouldn't say he was my favorite, for some odd reason Skids made quite the impression on me as a kid in the Marvel comics. I guess cuz he was barely featured anywhere else 😅
I think nothing else was standing behind VW's massive no is the contract with EA while they'd developed NEED FOR SPEED PORSCHE UNLEASHED/2000. Recently (few years ago) that contract became outdated so Porsches started to appear in every media other than EA related ones.
I had never thought of it before, but I also loved Jazz without ever owning a toy of him. He was kinda like the Golden State Warriors of the early 90's. The Run-TMC team of Tim Hardaway, Mitch Richmond & Chris Mullins. Everyone knew they were a good team & fun to watch. But they weren't really your favorite team.🤣🤣🤣
Ice analogy :) Although I'm a Lakers fan from day one, yes I did have a LOT of friends into that version of the Warriors. So when they became the juggernaut team of the past decade, what TF did they most remind you of? I'm thinking. UNICRON 😅😅😅
@@StoriesFromTheToyshelf Funny thing about that. I live about an hour south of Cleveland. But I was never a Cavs fan. It was Jordan & the Bulls. Followed by Chris Webber's Kings team. The 2002 WCF against your Lakers, as well as Tim Donaghy, turned me off the NBA for years. But I knew all about LeBron. Living so close to Akron, who didn't? Hell, my HS alma mater played him in the playoffs. But it was magical when he came home. It didn't hurt that I was a fan of JR Smith. Plus my then 11-year-old son loved Kyrie. Before the latter went nutty!🤣 Watching that team come back to win that series was almost cathartic. Sure, the legal gambling hasn't helped my drunken outbursts of, "This shts rigged!!" But I can enjoy the game again. The hilarious topper to this far too long rant. My son is a huge fan of De'Aaron Fox & the Kings! Life really is a circle 🤣🤣🤣
@@Busto I'm like the complete opposite ha ha. While I did recognize Jordan's greatness I was constantly rooting against him and the Bulls ha ha...I guess it stemmed from them nailing the coffin on Magic's Lakers showtime :P And I guess you could understand how much I hated..and feared the Webber Kings ha ha. I remember Bibby and Peja giving me nightmares. As for LeBron, I really didn't care at first, but "The Decision" really swayed my opinion on him to the negative, and I was SO happy when the Heat lost to Dallas....but now he's a Laker and my love is for the team more than the player, so I have to just accept him..good AND bad...mostly bad. If they didn't win the in 2020, this whole LeBron era would have been a disaster...we gave away so many good players....Ingram, Kuzma, Randle...good thing Russel came back, but even he's on his way out again... We could've had Taytum or Fox in the draft...but knowing Lakers Management, they would've traded them as well ...oh well, good and bad...still a Lakers die hard he he
@@SkupperNog nice! I remember him not being very easy to find! Odd considering mort collector like myself would've automatically preferred the white Meister. I guess red was produced in VERY limited quantities.
What I don’t understand is the moneypit of licensing when these engineers/designers can do little robots that fold up yet can’t do an “ish” altmode design to avoid extra costs and delays.
I won't even try to make sense of it myself, but I figure that it truly is a gray area. They can do and "ish" alt mode bit I guess that still is a risk they might not want to take? As the the license owner still might go after them and argue it still is their design yada yada? As for the live action movie, I think it's more of a who can pay us to use their cars? Porsche no? OK who's next?
@bigboy4006 here's another one I literally learned yesterday from another commenter. During WW2, Porsche made tanks! More specifically tank hunters. Which I would particularly awesome :)
I was lucky enough to have the original G1 Jazz toy. As with many of the 1984 line, Jazz was a very delicate transformation. That is why I found Jazz's fate in the 2007 movie quite comical. See, beyond the windshield snapping off. My Jazz toy suffered the same fate as his movie compatriot. He was accidentally broken at the rotation point in the torso. I do not know if this had happened to many of the Jazz toys. But, I found it funny none the less.
Hmmm I wonder if that was a common issue. Maybe Bay also had a Jazz toy that broke at the waist and figured that would be a great way to kill him off in the movie 😅never had the toy myself but I guess the windshield thing was a common weak spot. Same with Bluestreak which I had :)
Funny, I have each of those 3P jazz figures *_except_* fanstoys. But I never got on the fanstoys fanboy train. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I recall picking up Maketoys G2 versions of jazz and starscream the same year off of ebay. They were probably convention exclusives. The maketoys and new age jazz are also nice legends scale options, while iron factory is a more stylized take. I'd be down for a missing link jazz. Imagine, a simple to transform, diecast jazz with split legs and articulation?!?!? 💸
I never had first hand experience with either coolsville or agent Meister. From the moment I saw it, Maketoys had my money. He just looked a level above the other two. and like I said, had Jive never came along I would've been perfectly happy with Downbeat :) Yes thosnlegends scale TFs in. General are quite amazing bits of TF design and engineering but I. Had to tap out given my limited funds 😅 But yeah I just got missing link Prime and I am ALL IN on anything else they release in this line. And Jazz WOULD be sweet especially given I never got the original toy :)
Jazz is a swave smooth talking brother, that's what makes him cool. Idk why but I always dug on G2 Transformers, HotRod/Rodamous, Insectacons, and Headmasters. Everyone likes the G1 Dinobots of course😂. I think Gi Joe's Shockwave actually lost his name to the Transformers for awhile (I got the weird Shockblast fig and file card)😅. Oh, and I gotta mention G1 Blaster and Soundwave. 'NO WAY! TWO CAN PLAY!' Yo Freaking Joe!
Yeah after the original G1 line a lot of trademarks for names lapsed and Hasbro lost them to other toy companies. But nowadays with TF being a mega tent pole for Hasbro again, he'll will freeze over before they let any of their trademarks get taken again 😅 oh yeah and that Blaster scene....CLASSIC 👍👍👍
@retrojoe8290 nah they lost it to another company called Lanard toys. Who used it for their version of Gijoe called The Corps! Which I guess bombed cuz I never heard of them before. They eventually abandoned the license and Hasbro scooped it right back up. Whew...I had to Google all of that! The things I do for my viewers 😅 so now you know....👍👍👍
I don’t blame you! Reveal the Shield was awesome…and as a toy objectively speaking I think that he’s of better quality than SS86….but I just love the clear toon homage that the SS86 version wears on its sleeve:)
Lol everyone love him but Michael Bay and whoever made Mirage into him the last movie oh and the masterpiece line. However yup besides Prime he was definitely my favourite.
Michael Bay really punked Jazz…but he pretty much ruined almost every Transformer that was featured in his movies….even Bee basically became a joke. Can’t blame you for having him as your favorite!
@@StoriesFromTheToyshelf loved him for the past 40 years from the time I was 7. He and Blaster two of the most charismatic characters that ooozed cool and hardly any good stories lines after G1 in any t.v series or movie. Animated tried but was cut short. Great editing by the way. Forces me to rewatch to catch your references. Lol 😂
@bigzuu226 thanks! Appreciate it and glad to know my little references and easter eggs aren't going unnoticed 😅 oh and yes Jazz is cool and so is Blaster...hopefully I'll get to that dude sooner rather than later :)
After watching the FIRST G1 miniseries...which Autobot or Decepticon made the BIGGEST impression on you? And why?

As long as they don't copy Bay & use a racist stereotype voice
@Busto yeah Scatman was in a league of his own. No offense to the voices that came after but none of them came close to being Jazz for me :)
Jazz is my favorite autobot and it makes me super happy whenever he gets the spot light. Hope he can return to the big screen soon
Glad I could add to his spotlight! Yup he deserved a better fate than what the live action movie handed to him

Don't watch strangers horror movie you have been warn
OK? What movie would that be again?
A horror movie about maniacs with horror mask's that kill a couple
@@Antifurryspy755 OK noted 👍👍👍
Jazz is a swave smooth talking brother, that's what makes him cool. Idk why but I always dug on G2 Transformers, HotRod/Rodamous, Insectacons, and Headmasters. Everyone likes the G1 Dinobots of course😂. I think Gi Joe's Shockwave actually lost his name to the Transformers for awhile (I got the weird Shockblast fig and file card)😅. Oh, and I gotta mention G1 Blaster and Soundwave. 'NO WAY! TWO CAN PLAY!'
Yo Freaking Joe!
Yeah after the original G1 line a lot of trademarks for names lapsed and Hasbro lost them to other toy companies. But nowadays with TF being a mega tent pole for Hasbro again, he'll will freeze over before they let any of their trademarks get taken again 😅 oh yeah and that Blaster scene....CLASSIC 👍👍👍
@@StoriesFromTheToyshelf 😆 Hasbro lost the name Shockwave,, to itself?!??. That's Hasbro for ya.
Yo Freaking Joe!
@retrojoe8290 nah they lost it to another company called Lanard toys. Who used it for their version of Gijoe called The Corps! Which I guess bombed cuz I never heard of them before. They eventually abandoned the license and Hasbro scooped it right back up. Whew...I had to Google all of that! The things I do for my viewers 😅 so now you know....👍👍👍
I want a Dr Wu miniature Jazz. Both versions 86 and 07!
I'm not that familiar with Dr Wu's stuff but yeah it would be cool to have a couple of mini Jazz fo carry around :)
Jazz my beloved
Can't blame you! 👍👍👍
@@StoriesFromTheToyshelf fr Jazz has always been favorite character from transformers
@@ulty1472 probably one of the most liked characters in the franchise. Period :)
@@StoriesFromTheToyshelf fr
I still prefer the reveal the shield jazz i got years ago
I don’t blame you! Reveal the Shield was awesome…and as a toy objectively speaking I think that he’s of better quality than SS86….but I just love the clear toon homage that the SS86 version wears on its sleeve:)
Lol everyone love him but Michael Bay and whoever made Mirage into him the last movie oh and the masterpiece line. However yup besides Prime he was definitely my favourite.
Michael Bay really punked Jazz…but he pretty much ruined almost every Transformer that was featured in his movies….even Bee basically became a joke. Can’t blame you for having him as your favorite!
@@StoriesFromTheToyshelf loved him for the past 40 years from the time I was 7. He and Blaster two of the most charismatic characters that ooozed cool and hardly any good stories lines after G1 in any t.v series or movie. Animated tried but was cut short. Great editing by the way. Forces me to rewatch to catch your references. Lol 😂
@bigzuu226 thanks! Appreciate it and glad to know my little references and easter eggs aren't going unnoticed 😅 oh and yes Jazz is cool and so is Blaster...hopefully I'll get to that dude sooner rather than later :)
@@StoriesFromTheToyshelfwell yeah bee talks with the radio to just make him say wild jokes like in rotb he’s like a walking meme
Jazz is the best autobot chage my mind
Hard to argue....but I prefer my sociopath Sunny 😅
I fornt blame you lam'os and most if his character I can consider cool
@@VinnieMotianStudios ha ha thanks! For some reason I always consider the Lambo Bros and Jazz as one elite Autobot unit :)
No problem can I do a hot take
I think rachet should of died instead jazz in the 1st
Underated AF
Really? Interesting take 🤔
@@StoriesFromTheToyshelf lol
@@StoriesFromTheToyshelf I meant you channel
@_MECHA_ lol ill take that then! Thanks!
@@StoriesFromTheToyshelf of course! :)
What about flame toys jazz??
Yeah I hear that guy is awesome...but I'm not really into the high end non Transforming toys. Still awesome though :)
they copywriter'd jazz
Poor Jazz 😅
true he is cooler than me
Cooler than most of us 😅
Micheal bay didn't Like jazz pissed me off they killed him in the live action movie
Yeah that was a waste of a great established character. Very short sighted on their part
It's not my favorite but it's a rather good character.
We're on the same boat then! 👍
