Hasbro Transformers Voyager Class Springer 2013

Transformers has been on toy shelves for 30 years. Let that sink in... for 30 years, Transformers have been valid and popular toy options. Naturally, some years have been better than others, and come concepts have been rather, well, lacking, but the constant reinvention of the line has been key in making sure that children of many generations all enjoy the characters. While lines like Masters of the Universe and Cabbage Patch Kids struggle to exist, Transformers and GI Joe keep trucking on.

Hasbro Transformers Generations Ultimate Gift Set Jazz 2012

A few months ago, I got an appeal over Facebook for assistance from my good friend, and Transformers uber-guru, AMD. Unable to turn down his call for help, I found myself going halvsies on an online-exclusive Ultimate Gift Set that included Jazz, a miniature Motormaster (called Motorbreath now for copyright reasons), an oddly colored Optimus Prime and a miniature Thundercracker. I cut Optimus Prime out and sent him to his new home and got to keep the rest. Talk about a nice deal! To fluff out the Transformers content on my site so that Menasor is not all alone, I figured I'd take a look at this figure, Jazz, originally released in 2012, based on a mold from 2010.
