Classics 3.0 deluxe Jazz please?

I picked up an Encore G1 Jazz this weekend and I am reminded of how great a toy/character he is.

So why no deluxe Jazz in the Classicsverse?

Sure, there's the awesome Shattered Glass version which is the closest HasTakTomy has come to making a Classics deluxe Jazz, but he's $$$ on the secondary market being a convention exclusive. With Classics 3.0 Thrust confirmed I hoping that a de-Shattered version is soon to follow.

Until then my Classics/Henkei/Classics 2.0 display will have to exist with a Jazz-shaped hole in it.

Re: Classics 3.0 deluxe Jazz please?

I really wish a Classics Jazz would be released soon. The closest thing I have is the repainted Movie-verse Target Exclusive Jazz and that is a Solstace GXP, not a Porsche 935 Turbo!

Jazz is the character I would most want to be released; the Autobots can't even pass for complete without him. Wheeljack is another necessity, in my opinion.

Re: Classics 3.0 deluxe Jazz please?

I could live with Jazz's "upgrade" from a Porsche 935 to a Bugatti Veyron...it even fits the updated vibe of the whole Classics line anyways.

Make the Autobot symbols red, eliminate the "Massacre Racing" and "Kill To Win" decals (heck, I'll take 'Meister' if they can't use 'Martini')...et voila! It's that easy, Hasbro!

I agree, Jazz and Wheeljack are a must for the Universe Line! Which Jazz is that one, jjwankenobi?

The Shattered glass Jazz is decent at best...

He really deserves a whole new mold.

Cheers!

Shattered Glass Jazz is a complete fail to me. If they wont spring for a new mold I'd settle for the Prowl mold with a new head.

The Classics 2.0 Prowl/Silverstreak/Smokescreen mold was a fury-inducing mess for me...traded them all away.

Jazz is definitely deserving of a new mold but at least the Shattered Glass version exisits to make things easier for Hasbro to release a decent deluxe-sized version in my lifetime.

One can only hope...

Re: Classics 3.0 deluxe Jazz please?

I agree a Classics 3.0 Jazz and Wheeljack WOULD be cool, but look at it from the perspective of customisers...


which figures did everyone wanna make? Classics Thrust, Jazz and Wheeljack. Many people - including myself - have given up on our Thrust customs due to this. What will happen to everyone who ius currently making or has plans to make Jazz and Wheeljack upgrade kits for classics figures?

XDD still....if they did that, so bought x3
