Lovely, so Oilslick is Prowl's Storm Shadow???
Or maybe he is more like a Dreadnok.
Nice pictures!
jazz= WHoa!

Wow. I reeeeally don't like the motorcycle. Jazz isn't that great either, but he looks like he could be worth the dough. The motorcycle...seriously? Really? >_<

Looks like Prowl has 2 new rivals!
new ninja
new motorcycle
Only thing I don't like about Oilslick is the head.
it's like Wheelie with a huge nose.
Other than that, he looks quite awesome.

Oilslick's colorscheme reminds me of Springer, but that could be just me. I like his alt mode. Its one mean looking chopper.

O.k., is it a sacrilege to say that these have me more excited than the unreleased Botcon package figures? These things just keep getting better! I'm loving the style and that chopper is just plain sweet. Love the ram's head handlebars and ball-and-chain weapon.
Totally fired up about this line!

Jazz is doing nothing for me. I can't help but wonder if he upset someone to have 2 lines in a row give him nice alts, and craptacular bot modes!?!
OilSlick has that whole Hell-Mantis thing going for him, and that works for me. I love the ram head, very evil!
Thanks for the pics!!!

ive liked every animated toy so far but jazz and oilslick i feel are weaker than what we have seen previously, jazz simply has too much going on and many parts arent flowing well with each other, quite the opposite of all the previous animation toys. he could have been so much better conceived, many others in teh animated line are artistically almost perfect as far as i can see, black arachnia, voyager prime for eg. hes adequate but not working as well as i'd hoped.

So, if Lobo and Skeletor built a bike together...
...it still wouldn't explain why it turns into the Snakemen's suicide bomb robot.

HOT DAMN! Those are cool! My jaw dropped to the floor when I saw those pics. Jazz is not what I was expecting, based on the black & white images we've seen before, but he's still very cool.
As for Oilslick, he's stylized, like Lockdown, so I could see him not appealing to everyone, but I think he's freakin'...well, awesome, amazing, whatever positive word you wanna use. He just blows my mind, in both modes. He looks like a space-cycle, like something you'd see Lobo riding.

Love Jazz's vehicle mode, robot mode could use work.
Oilslick is plain love in both forms, although the ram's head kind of clashes with his look in both forms. Love the weapon.

I go to a frickin hockey game and miss a buttload of news...
JAZZ ROCKS! Even my wife thinks he looks awseom!
Oilslick...he's ok, but too much green. They need something else to accent it.

Jazz looks great. Oilslick is probably a pass.
Will this line hurry up and get here already?

What is it with this line? The first two motorcycle transformers that don't have the wheels just hanging out all over the place is awesome, but those heads SUCK big time!

Oh no I'm not feeling this at all.
The whole point of the Animated designs apart from the cartoony look was the complete 100% integration of kibble. Jazz, as another poster mentioned, has too much going on.
Oil Slick does better with the kibble and has a neat vehicon-esque look to him but it's just too freakin' ugly!
Pass and pass.

Wreck-Gar is going to be a Garbage truck, as I recall.
