good lord that visor sucks. where the hell is the quality control hasbro?

Now the only question that remains:

Is Smokescreen's head on a Ball joint that's the same size as Knock Outs/AM Smokescreen?

That's a design issue, not QC.

Welcome to my tribe, sir.

smokescreen is a buy on sight

I never liked the character of Smokescreen very much, but that is an awesome looking toy.

That's how he should have looked from the get-go.

I'd buy him, even thought I hate this series. I'd ditch the dumb Road Warrior armor and just leave him plain.

Smokescreen will be my favorite Prime figure once I get him. He looks sick.

Nice! I know there´s probably a million other characters this guy looks like, but for some reason Siderburn comes to mind.

Please no... no... I said just Wheeljack, I already have Arms Micron Smokescreen! But I love comparing old and new...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

*is swallowed by the desire to get this figure*

So glad I didnt cave and buy the AM one.

yes! smokescreen, you will be mine

Don't fight it. Let it happen.

Wow. Starscream really looks to have Cybertron Brimstone's colors.

That head makes it look like drone Bulkhead

awesomeness!!! AM smokescreen.......meet EBAY.

Something deep inside me hopes that we get a Prowl from this. And according to someone who's gotten my attention (ever since he told us about Deluxe Starscream days before it was news), we're getting one in legion scale. Smokescreen retool?

YES!!my only nitpicks with the fig. are relatively thin legs and arm kibble, but other than that, HE IS PERFECT!!!
i feel bad that japan got left out on this one.

I could see it happening.

I hope frenzyrumble jumps right onto this idea... well u know, for this smokescreen mold
or getrightrobot...
OR BOTH!

Oh my, this is so exciting. While the mold isn't perfect (esp. on the backside of the robot) and the car bra is hideous, it's nonetheless very awesome that Smokey finally got his well-deserved unique mold. I am not convinced on some of the paint color choices, but I am sure some alcohol/paint or Repro labels can fix them. Can't wait to get him!!!

Anyone know the Takara claims web address? I'd like to file my "you jerks owe me $40" claim asap. /facepalm

I like the AM Smokescreen, a lot actually, and he would be awesome with a set of Reprolabels but with this guy coming out, I think that's most likely a pipe dream (all but confirmed to me by Craig on another site). Clearly this is the superior Smokey... that said, the AM Smokey head is the better of the two AND the box is awesome. w00t!!

Ok, I'm buying this one. The head is a good mould, just bad painting. I can sort that out. Does anyone want the crappy armour when I get mine?

Just so we're clear, you meant this symbol is on the figure, right?



If you meant the prototype, then where is it?

That's the one. Which is different from the one you showed further up, more unicorn-y.

Am I just adding to the confusion?


As for Smokescreen, still unsure, even though the armour-on-off feature is a plus!
Might just focus on Starseekers and Predacons.

EDIT: After another look at the pictures, he may have moved onto the want list.
