Star Saber took me off guard,in a good way.
Edit:Starscream Boomerang reminds me of his Armada sword.

You know what is funny? The photo that shows Smokescreen is very, very little. I mean to the point we cannot be 100% sure that it is a complete redeco of Knock Out, or it has some retooling that makes him look like Smokescreen. And yet, the one thing that keeps me from being won over when it comes to this piece is his Arms Micron partner.

But seriously... I am 100% sold on GT-R Star Saber, and cannot wait to preorder him.
Officially collecting nothing but "Encore" (minus the exclusives and variants), G1 reissues (minus TransformersAsia.com), and G1-related variants (minus TransformersAsia.com) of my favorite characters! (^_^)v

The only thing retooled on Smokescreen from Knock Out is a spoiler. His head I thought was retooled...then I took a closer look.

Is there really a good way to tell either way? I mean, I'm looking at his head as close as I can (without zooming in so far to blur it even further) and it does look remolded to me. Though, that could just be the image fooling me, but still.

It is possible though. Swerve had a retooled head (possibly a pretool even), I know Frenzy/Rumble uses the pretooled head, why shouldn't Smokescreen have one?
Top 5 Priorities:
1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)
Also looking for any clear Arms Microns, like Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

It appears that I am going to spend a lot of money on Soundwave and his minions this year. I have Mp Sounwave preordered, I want to get the MP cassettes. At first I wanted to pass on the Voyager version since I have the deluxe already. But the inclusion of the cassette gimmick is too cool to pass on. It will be nice to have a line up of the cassettes for the Classics shelf.
Weird request here. If anyone has an extra Classics Skywarp or Dirge missile please PM me. I need one.

He has the red "streaks" he's supposed to have on the top of his head and that's it. His forehead crest and head shape are identical to Knock Out.
I expect Hasbro to give us a new head, torso, and arms with Knock Out's legs for the Deluxe figure like they did with the Cyberverse figure.

If not, they screwed up my favorite Autobot.

Hate to break it to you, but the legs not the same mold. The only thing similar is the position of the wheels and the covers, but that's it.

And they have the same articulation. They appear to transform the same way as well (although I hypothesize that the arms become the rear windshield rather than his calves).
I never specifically stated the legs were the same mold. I said they were "Knock Out's legs," as in they were strikingly similar. My expectations meet mutually if Smokescreen gets his own mold in the U.S.
