We do not intend for our products to carry political messages, and apologize to anyone who was offended by this message. We investigated the issue, and discovered that one of our vendors inserted this as part of the design without authorization. It was brought to our attention that a graphic appears on one of our Transformers figures that, when translated from Cybertonian letters to English, spells out MAGA. Hasbro quickly responded with the following statement: Note: Gizmodo picked up on this story when it first happened. Transformers are intended for fantasy and escape, and I personally always feel like things get dragged down when real life mashes into them too much. However what I will say is that in my opinion, I do not want politics and my Transformers toys mixing (unless it's Cybertronian politics of course). This is not a political web site, so I will not go into my feelings on the specific acronym. When translated into English, they spelled out "MAGA", which is the acronym for the 2016 United States Presidential Candidate, Donald Trump's slogan "Make America Great Again". Soon after the release of this figure, it was discovered by some intrepid fans that Jazz's deco included some Cybertronian glyphs.
It is the first one intended to represent a "G1" Jazz in quite some time. This figure is a brand new sculpt designed just for "Power of the Primes". Check out some of the versions of Jazz that have come out over the years: Over the years, Jazz has popped up again and again in many forms in the Transformers toy line.
