Jake (Animorphs)
| The name or term "Jake" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Jake (disambiguation). |
This character or person needs some sort of visual representation. If you have one, please replace this.
Though Jake gets scared, he'll never show it, as the other Animorphs look to him to be the leader of their group. A task that he views as somewhat of a burden. He hopes that his tiger morph will give him the courage he needs to topple the yeerk invasion before it's too late. He is also fond of morphing into a Grizzly Bear, as the Grizzly feels no fear. Another known form in his morph arsenal is that of a stingray. At some point, he and his fellow Animorphs Cassie and Marco broke into a Yeerk genetic experimentation lab, and gained the ability to merge, through the use of an advanced morphing technique, to become the colossal Tri-Rex.
Toys
Animorphs
- Jake/Tiger (Deluxe, 1999)
- Accessories: Left paw, right paw
- Part of the first wave of Animorphs toys, Jake transforms from a really unconvincing human into a tiger, as well as a transitional third mode combining features from both. His tiger mode front claws are separate pieces that attach like gloves.
- This toy was retooled and redecoed to create Ax/Panther (the only retool in the line).
- Jake/Grizzly Bear (Mega, 1999)
- Accessories: Left paw, right paw
- Jake's second toy transforms from a marginally better human into a grizzly bear that looks familiar, as well as a transitional third mode combining features from both. His bear mode front claws are separate pieces that attach like gloves.
- Tri-Rex (Super, 1999)
- This version of Jake was available only in the Tri-Rex giftset, along with Marco and Cassie. The toy has neither a human mode nor a complete animal mode; Jake transforms from a human/dinosaur transitional form into the head, neck, and foreams of Tri-Rex.
- Jake Stingray/Manta (Deluxe)
- The fourth Jake toy transformed from a human with fins on his knees and most of a stingray growing out of his back into a stingray. The stingray chest and tail were removable.
- Although it was planned, this toy was never released in the United States. Because its planned release would have been near the end of the line, this led to a popular perception that it was never released at all, similar to the status of the Beast Machines Megatron toy that eventually became Megatron Megabolt.
