Santalux: Emiliano Santalucia's Blog: Transformers Concepts: Jazz

 

This alone would have made Prime so much better. Instead we got Arcee and Bulkhead.

 

Would have been freaking awesome.

 

Jazz and Sideswipe, plus Ironhide show a lot of flavor.

Anyone want to see something like art for an Aligned continuity Railspike or other "Outsider" I.E., non G1 character?

 

I don't like his proportions. He looks like a dwarf because of his head size in relation to the rest of his body.

 

Agreed

 

I dig this.

Not... Really. In fact, he has a nice, almost TFA-ish look.

 

Looks like g1 2.0

 

I like his upper body but hate his bottom half, it's too movie-ish.

"No I want two..." q-q

 

I really like how it's got elements of both Movie-verse Jazz (look at the shoulders and the legs) and FoC Jazz (The forearms, headlights, and chest in general). I'd have loved to see this onscreen.

 

Oh man, that is gorgeous. Perfect mix of G1 and Movie.

 

That's just beautiful. Now, Hasbro....make a toy out of this.

 

I never view Prime and the video game series as the same universe/dimension. Why anyone would is beyond me. The only thing I see it as is some way for Hasbro to market it as such.

 

Not bad...fits in with the Prime aesthetic (even has a little Animated in it)

 

Yes really. His upper body and head look huge compared to his short and stumpy legs. I don't like it.

I don't see TFA in it either. Not really sure how you guys are coming to that conclusion, but ok.

 

The vehicle mode looks just like what Smokescreen looks like on the show or damn close anyhow.

I wonder if they went with the Knockout repaint for the Smokescreen toy to save his show style mode for Jazz potentially?

 

Don't get me rong, it's cool, but there's really nothing to it. It's slightly more G1 Movie Jazz, really. Nothing exciting or unique about him. No motif, no personality, no purpose. Just movie Jazz made more G1 with awkward-er proportions and a giant shoulder cannon.

 

It's pretty damn cool, but it also convinces me that a hybrid of G1 and Movie is not the way to go.

I think the Ironhide one worked better in that sense, but still..doesn't really work for me.

 

>Door wings

Dropped go home.

 

That's quite a shoulder connon you got there Jazz.

I like it. He's got a lot of personality.
