Japanese Transformers Animated: TA29 Autobot Jazz is armed with exhaust pipes that convert into double-energy nunchucks; he transforms into a sleek sports car with a familiar white and black color scheme and blue and red lettering. Filling a contemporary void apparently far too bereft of karate robots, Jazz, a practitioner of Metallikato, joins the cyber-ninja ranks alongside the slightly less inundated Prowl. A member of the Cybertron Elite Guard, Jazz's independent nature occasionally conflicts with his inability to disregard the chain of command. Though initially creeped out by humans, Jazz is enamored of the various facets of the Earth culture, zealously embracing even the worst of it. Initially Jazz accompanied Supreme Commander Ultra Magnus and Sentinel Prime, performing a tentative reconnaissance in light of Optimus Prime's assertion to have discovered the location of the AllSpark.
