    The modern Legends (which are Cyberverse Commander size) are about Scout size, taking into account the shrinkage Deluxe also suffered from at the same time.

    This thing looks really good. However by the time it might be offered out to wider collectors i hope and imagine their would be other Jazz legends scale options. Preferably slightly more G1 looking too.

    yeah, while I think IF's autobots are really great looking in bot mode, their alts, while still cool, aren't reminiscent enough of their G1 origins... especially their Jazz which looks like yet another future-lamborghini, and not a future-porsche (they could just bulb out the windscreen and add a more representative spoiler but I guess it's another attempt at reusing some existing molds.)

    Nope!

    Here's a little comparison image I found:
    [​IMG]

    Legend there is now Legion
    Commander is now Legends
    And Scout is still Scout (though, I don't think there are really and Scout class toys being made anymore)

    With 3P, some big characters like Ultra Magnus or Dinobots may be closer to Scout Class in order to be Legends Scale, but from a purely class point of view, scout is bigger than legends.

    Good because they aren't supposed to be.

    A more accurate comparison. Scout Windcharger and two Legends ones. Scout is bigger, but only by as much as modern Deluxe have shrunk from Generations ones.

    It's noticeably smaller... like 2 heads smaller. Thanks for proving my point!

    And I'm sorry, but how is the image I posted not accurate? It was comparing a Cyberverse Commander to a Scout figure, which YOU said were the same size.

    And sorry, Deluxe size is kinda irrelevant to this.

    I did say Cyberverse Commander, but I meant whatever modern giant Legends are. Remember when Legends used to all be Legion size?

    My point is modern Legends are what Scout would be today with shrinkage.

    If scout and legends are about the same, why even bring up the word "scout"? Why don't you just use the word legends.

    This is pretty cool and I'd love to own one. That being said it would be a terrible idea as a pack in exclusive with their Devastator (who I have zero interest in).

    It looks like a cool little Jazz figure but wtf is wrong with the knees. Why are they so high in his legs? It doesn't look like there's anything stopping them from being lower down in a much better position...

    Looks like Jazz is going to be delayed:

    That’s too bad. I was hoping this would have been right on the heels of Whisky Jack.

    Hopefully they’ll rework the knees. Looking forward to seeing how he turns out.

    I like this Jazz, I hope the improvements they make will be worth it. I would like some doors like the original toy but that was my only dislike with the design.
