:''Jazz is an [[Autobot]] from the brick-based world of [[Kre-O]].''
[[Image:KreO toy Jazz.jpg|thumb|right|350px]]
'''Jazz''' is a particularly enthusiastic Autobot warrior, and hates that [[Optimus Prime (Kre-O)|Optimus Prime]] has to be a killjoy all the time, what with their leader insisting on "restraint" all the time, when he just wants to get out there and fight [[Decepticon]]s. In his downtime, Jazz enjoys chilling with his crew at the [[Kreon]] bloxing clubs and watching demolition derbies. He also likes listening to his favorite tune, "Nothin' But A Bot Thing".
 
==Fiction==
Jazz was in the audience of a tag battle pitting [[Optimus Prime (Kre-O)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Bumblebee (Kre-O)|Bumblebee]] against [[Megatron (Kre-O)|Megatron]] and [[Starscream (Kre-O)|Starscream]]. {{storylink|Last Bot Standing}} He was in the audience of a dance competition too. {{storylink|Bot Stars}}

* '''Jazz''' with Jazz and "Race Driver" Kreons (2011, 122 pieces)
: The Kre-O Jazz set is based primarily on ''[[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]]'' [[Jazz (G1)|Jazz]] in deco and headsculpt, but with [[Live-action film series|Movie]] [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]]'s silver coloration.  He transforms into a generic sports car that doesn't really look like either Jazz's alternate mode, with opening doors and a flip-up roof.  Sadly, neither of these features is actually useful for inserting a driver (the gap left by opening the roof is too small, and the sides are blocked by unfortunately-placed horizontal bars), but at least the thought was there.
 
: The included Jazz Kreon is based directly on his ''Generation 1'' self, with his characteristic coloration and deco, "door wings," and a light gray gun that resembles a vastly simplified version of his [[photon rifle]].  The "Race Driver" Kreon wears a red and light gray racing suit and helmet.  The set also includes a light gray baseball cap for the Race Driver, so he doesn't have to wear his helmet all the time.  How thoughtful!
 
: This set shows signs of having been slightly redesigned late in production.  Included among the pieces is a red seat which is not used in either mode; there is an obvious place where it "belongs" in the middle of the car's cabin, but it cannot actually fit there due to other parts interfering.  (Interestingly enough,  a certain other company's equivalent piece ''will'' fit, thanks to its slightly different design.)  Similarly, there is a black sticker with "vent" detailing which the builder is never instructed to apply anywhere, though according to stock photography it is intended for Jazz's abdomen/pelvis section.
