Next up, Jazz.
Atl mode:
Jazz's atl mode is sleek. Its pretty cool. Some things you'll notice is that he has a nice red autobot symbol. Has a spoiler on the back, and six, either exhaust ports or engine boosters on the top of the car. Colours are, as you can see, white, blue, grey, black and red.
However, again like prime, he is small. Still smaller than PRID Bumblebee and RTS Windcharger is just a few milimetres smaller.

Robot mode:
First thing you may notice is the head. Its sunken into his body. I don't like it at all.
Proportions are terribly on the guy. From a built looking upper body to very skinny legs
The head sclupt however is very nice. Blue, silver and black on the visor. The face itself is well detailed.

Transformations:
Jazz'stransformation is much more involved than prime's. However, once transformed, another set of wheels show up as the ankles. So he has total count of si wheels, but I feel as the transformation requires you flip the arm panel which cover the front wheel, the ankle wheels are bad. But do lack the red paints the other four have. Jazz also features an automorphe gimmick for the head.
