Fans Toys JIVE (Jazz) : EmGo's Transformers Reviews N' Stuff 

What makes Emgo the best reviewer is the quality of his videos, he doesn’t get caught up in the rat race of being the first to review a figure, you can actually see what & where every piece pegs in because his camera is sit up for us to see the transformation and not so he can, and the #1 reason is that he has a great sense of humor. Thanks Emgo you are the GOAT reviewer!

The “smiling chest” is Stitch from Lilo& Stitch!!! Now I can’t unsee it, haha.

The amount of detail they managed to cram into that one is just amazing, im freaking lovin it.

I know I'm late to the party on this one but I just bought this and was watching other reviewers transform it and saving you for last so I could see it done right. Right before I clicked on this I watched Bobby Skullface's review and him basically man handling it as always and he never quite got it. After watching this I'd just like to say as transformer reviewers go it like comparing Slipnot to Mozart. You make it look easy brother. Your the gold standard. I've heard so many other reviewers say if you wanna see it done right, watch EMGO do it. To have the respect of your peers is a rare thing this day and age. ✌️🤖

I love the end credit scene, the conversation was just so captivating and inspiring. The music was rocking too. ☺️

The ending was the funniest thing ever to date! I think the whole conversation was just Prime telling Jazz to turn it down and Jazz reluctantly agrees at some point. Lol

Definitely need a “ Just transform it” for this guy

Serious question, all of your years of doing this, do you ever get tired of learning the transformations and doing it over and over again? Idk if anyone ever tells you but thank you for what you do.

Sweetness! I just received my FT Jive earlier today and was disappointed I couldn't find your review/ transformation on Jive. Little did I expect the transformer gods to provide this video within hours. Primus bless you EmGo.

What a beautiful bot!!!!

"Jazz: hey Prime, lets Jive around 😁 🔊🔊🎼🎵🎶"

All i can keep thinking of is that scene from Airplane lol...

He looks good

I bet the conversation was about Prime asking Jazz if he can rise.

I clicked fast forward a couple times in quick succession, and it sounded like you said 'Vanna The Hutt'. As in, Vanna White with Jabba proportions.

Yay!!! Thank you! I don’t watch any of those other Jive Turkeys, so this was much anticipated.

Ah yes, the classic Fanstoys experience. Incredible bot mode. Gorgeous alt mode. But even God himself fears the task of switching between modes

Awesome vid! I like the background music! Idk why but it brings me back to being kid, Saturday morning cartoons etc. Very enjoyable , nostalgic, etc!

it is a work of art, the takara masterpiece and fanstoys do the best at making them as cartoon as possible

so, im not actualy able to watch the review right now but at least i can say "oh look, another one"

Great review, thanks Emgo! I'll be using this to help transform this fiddly beast! Also... Hilarious skit. Nice work

I just LOVE that you made a review for this figure! and I got mine the same day your review came out, which was perfect! your reviews are the reason I first started collecting MP transformers, and you are still my favorite reviewer

Starting to wonder when Takara is going to remake Sideswipe

Thanks for the non frustrating transformation. Do you ever have to watch your old videos to remember how to transform old figures?

Love this videos so much, great quality emgo, you're maybe the best reviewer i see before

I absolutely love the way emgo does his video, because he doesn't more the figures all over the camera..he stay in one plays ,his camera is extremely excellent

After all this time I still love your Reviews and the funny clips at the and! 😊👍🏼

The chest mouth makes it look like a clown Stitch. XD

This is the first time I’ve heard someone mention that his legs are on a slider.

12:16 It's Stitch!

The usual box yeeting.... I LOVE IT

Just got the reissue of this guy recently, you’re not kidding about how difficult the doors are to transform. The rest isn’t awful, the legs can be a bit frustrating… but those doors. It’s no nerve wracking. I worry about breaking it each time.

8:31 may be my favorite emgo joke to date! Great review

12:16 his smiling chest looks more like Lilo and Stitch 😄

Absolutely gorgeous figure, up there with their Soundwave and Galvatron as my favorite FT releases

His chest mouth got that Stitch vibe, doesn't it? 😅

I got my son ironhide and arcee from the bumblebee movie and we had to watch your videos because we couldn't understand the instructions...lol

Finally a review of this figure which shows that he can have the door wings as an option, I must have seen about 10 now of which ONLY Emgo here shows that it's possible.

Bonus G1 design points for where Jive's arms go in car mode.

You transformed him without damaging it.. impressive 👍

This figure is awesome, and part of me feels like it's mold could be inspiration for a proper movie bumblebee. maybe not because its based off a simple G1 aesthetic, but with the way the legs transform, doors line up and even how they managed to seamlessly turn the front wheels into a shoulder of sorts. makes ya wonder if they can do this than how can we still not get a proper bee backpack lol

Right after you said, 'Patience', I pulled a Megatron and ripped Jive in two. Accidentally, of course, and right at his wishbone thing, so its fine. You're the best, EmGo!

Beautiful bot love the g1 stly and the way how his arms are in alt mode just like his old g1 toy.

One of my favorite A Tribe Called Quest songs, Jive (We've Got).

I can't imagine what it must be like to have the skill, the patience, and the attention span to be able to actually transform these things.

Like I've said in the Mirage review, just got mine last week this time and it's amazing. Fits in in with my other MPs a bit too well. I haven't transformed him yet, not because I'm scared of the transformation, but because it just looks so good the way it is (and I have SS86 jazz as my fiddle figure). Got a few downsides, one being that the shoulder ratchets are so tight, I can't pivot his arms without untabing them and the chest. And he came with two happy faces instead of one being his own mouthed expression, but I rarely swap faces on my figures anyways.

He is cartoon dead on looks Smooth even with out the wings Out or shoulder launcher I am getting this guy!

I love the robot mode but out of the box was really tight making the transformation less enjoyable then I hoped but still worth it

Awesome review 👍👍 hey, do you like podcasts ?

12:19 indeed I won't ever unsee it

Amazing transformation

And this My friends is the reason why we should wait for the Official Masterpiece version whether original OR K.O. to spare ourselves of those fiddly "not-a-fan of" transformations

12:16 who else sees Stitch?? 😂

God this figure looks so good! And it really does the G1 design justice. Also, love the stop-motion bit at the end. Might I ask what the song's name is? Sounds like a real head-banger.

by Primus, I'd sacrifice at least 30% of the look of this thing in favor of a transformation that doesn't make me want to disembowel whoever designed it. 3P's obsession with sliders is going to kill me one day I swear.

Nice mold, but I wish it had more chrome on the body, like the midriff, shins, rifle, face, and real world detail on the stripes and car body. I guess Toyhax Reprolabels will do those. 🤔✌️😉

The skit was perfect ahahhaha!

Hermoso el mio tengo que ir a buscarlo al correo 😊😊😊

I just ordered this guy!

You mention your masterpiece shelf a lot. Do you have a video of it? Also curious to see your video set up (where tri-pod is, etc when filming, etc). Thanks! Love the videos

Mt all time favorite autobot. Fans Toys did an awesome job on this figure. Emgo do you think those hinges could break over time by the doors? It looks like you had to put force to fold them. Keep up the great reviews.

The arms on this one I think fall in to the one time where the second verse is three/quarters of the first. Or at least in my mind. 🙃

MP Ironhide and Sideswipe need updated figures bad

Fans toys is the definition of Fine, I'll do it my self, Since Takara has YET to give us a true Masterpiece Jazz or Mirage

I'm tempted to get this figure even though I already have Maketoys Downbeat. I'd probably display that one in alt mode and this one in bot mode if I do get him.

Jive looks Very good.

12:13 Reminds me of Stitch.

Hoping we might see an official MP one day especially with a Porsche being in the upcoming movie. This is a nice option for now at least.

The ending skit 😂

I gave this model checking out couple weeks ago!!!!😄

No one has any love for Generation toys J4zz?

interms of 3rd party masterpiece figures, fanstoys wins in my opinion

Really wish I got this guy when he wasn’t sold out. Jazz was my favourite from g1 I love is look and is car mode🔥🔥 is there like and app or something I can get that notifies me when new stuff like this is in the works or coming out?

I finally picked up the X version of this (with the updated livery apparently). The transformation is unchanged and holy cow is it finnicky. I wouldn't call it impossible...downright impressive honestly but NOT fun in the slightest. Got him in car mode now and I think he's gonna stay there for a bit. He's solid but I was afraid the whole time of breaking something.

You want to put his arms in an OLÈ pose when transforming into car mode

Dope

Mhmmmm he isn't mad at Jazz that the music was so loud. I guessing he like that music like him does.

How is this more complicated than the bayverse figure

They named him jive 💀💀💀

12:16 looks like stitch from lilo & stitch

For those of you that have him, how does this compare to Maketoys’ Jazz?

Hi emgo, Will you review the upgrade kit 2.0 for the jinbao gravity builder anytime soon ?

The first line of the bio has his actual name*

cool

Anybody see Stitch from that Lilo & Stitch Movie in Jive’s chest?

The smiling chest is gonna haunt me 😑😁

Hey, gang. Obviously emgo likes BBTS, and I've enjoyed buying stuff from them. I've also picked up stuff from Tfsafari and it's mostly worked out, though they did lose one and had to resend it. My question is: are there any Transformers online stores that you guys wouldn't recommend? I was watching another RU-vidr and they were big on ShowZ, but I don't have any experience with them.

Next time you transform him try up then down its easy you dont have to squeeze thlngs pass things lol

I need a MP scale Jazz its mu must have figure right now

hehehe when you've open the mouth .. it's look like toothless from How to train your dragon hehehe

As for the actual toy itself he looks good but if you want to just have an MP Jazz for the shelf at the best value for the dollar I don't know if he's better than the Transform and Rollout one that was half the price (but whose transformation is a special kind of hell... not an issue if you're never going to transform him of course). Good luck finding that Jazz figure for the original $65 now, though... last I saw they're doing a re-release for $80.

I need to get a g1 jazz

His chest with the mouth looks like stich

Nicely done but they need to complete their not Menasor and add more to their not Superion.

What music is this from when jazz talks to Optimus?🤔

that joke was silly

i still say scorge and cycloens need a mp

His "chest mouth" looks like Stich

Which is better, this figure or Make Toys Downbeat?

i still think maketoys alt mode looks better...
