From what I understand about the term "crest" or "comb", it just refers to the central part. You couldn't say the feathers on the left and right of a Cockatiel's crest are part of the crest, would you?

Yes, but these red parts are not detached from the crest. They extend backward from it. My point is they aren't eyebrows; they don't move depending on expression.

Well I do think it would be awkward seeing BH being a deluxe, but it does homage Brawn more than Roadbuster. I mean, look at this:

Oh, wait...they both resemble him. ;)

And SS does look nice as well, so good job Takara and Hasbro, you just made yourself a more decent mold.

I think what Gearslide is talking about are the two very thin lines above his eyes, which have a vague red tinge to them.

The figure in the photo seems to have inverted the colouring, with the crest left white, and the side crest bits coloured (albeit in blue). Fixable.

Mmm. Okay.

Well, if Reprolabels makes a set for this (which he desperately needs), not only would I like stickers to fix some of his atrocious paint, but also include some Elite Guard insignias. Maybe even take the extra step to include stickers that turn him into his Cybertronian scheme entirely!

I don't know how I could thank Hasbro enough for giving him his own mold. :KREMZEEK:

Smokescreen is the first BH toy that I'm thinking of pre-ordering! Not sold on the rest of the line and waiting to make a decision later, but SS is a must have if he has been done right :D

Don't bother. No middle man i know ships tabao orders to the us. Shipping to singapore alone is actually rather costly. If you somehow mannage to get this into the us, i assue you it would take over 2 months and cost around $50usd for both. I'll just wait. :P

Okay, colour me impressed... BH does look pretty awesome, but I'll pass as I've got the PRID Voyager. SS is 100% buy - his flaws are nothing that clippers and paint/labels can't fix.

I really wonder though, the more I see these Beast Hunters figures, if this isn't just a gimmick that is toyline only (ala Mechtech)... I'm not doubting that we'll see Predaking and *possibly* some other Predacons in-show, but I'll be really suprised if the Autobot cast gets a "Mad Max Makeover", let alone all their fancy beast-hunting weapons for a shorter season. From the preview of Season 3, it looks like Predaking is the "Autobot Hunter" and not the other way around... I guess time will tell though!

Regardless... I don't see myself picking up any cast members from the BH line that I have from FE or PRID, but since Smokescreen doesn't fit in to either of those categories I will buy him even if the armour is permanent!
