    Hi guys , my turn to join the Jazz bandwagon, too bad Hasbro did not consider making a new mold for Jazz, although he had a G1 remake via TFTM Jazz mold, after seeing alot of customs I said to myself despite what I have gone through last year after a major surgery on my left lung I still managed to make myself busy on tfs waiting for my wound to heal and when the right time came in I was able to continue my project . Though its a WIP he is 70-80% complete. Thanks to amuroMkII for the decals which he gave me as a bday present last year .

    I used a TFU Prowl mold , put some putty om the hood and front grill, smoothen it and replaced it with the grill of a cheap plastic car and did some sanding.
    On his spoilers I will just leave it as it is and just add decals.
    For the colors, I used a light gray primer then white and put an xtra clear coat.

    Here are the pics :

    Thanks guys, too bad I have to use decals for his tail lights which resembles the Mastecard logo . I can't find any other subsitute so it ended up ala Mastercard . The hood is made to look as cross over between 2 cars so it has a clear headlight and the G1 blue headlights. His ears are made from softdrink plastic cap and the so called side part are cut from plastic sliding folder.
