The name or term "Jake" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Jake (disambiguation).
Jake is a human in the Animorphs continuity.

Jake is the leader of the Animorphs. He doesn't want you to know his last name, until he's ready to tell you it's Berenson.

Jake's known animal forms include a tiger, a grizzly bear, a severed T. rex head, and a stingray.


Toys

Animorphs

WhY mY ShOuLdErS hUrT?
  • 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.



mY liFE iS paIn.
  • 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.
