Prowl?

by **Arlekkin** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 8:39 pm

I would say that the new recruit is Jazz.

Which is really going to suck. Smokescreen has door-wings. Knock Out, the toy Smokescreen's getting retooled off of, has wheel-wings. :-(

I hope they engineer the transformation a little bit differently to accommodate that, or give us a new mold in the U.S.

Actually if you look closely at the new bots back when Prime yells "Fall back" you can see the door wings and wheel wings.

But ya needs a retool like what happened with rts tracks and gens wheeljack, except so the doors go on the back and not the arms.

Prowl? Smokescreen? Jazz? Whoever it is, I hope he doesn't die so quickly! :PRAY:

I'm leaning in the direction of it being Sideswipe via Michael Bay's silver version, especially with those blue highlights. If not, then my second choice would be Prowl.

Hard to tell. The earlier promo images with the #38 vaguely visible - suggests Smokescreen. The colors of the character - blue and white/silver - suggests either Jazz or Mirage. The wing doors - could be anyone.

Jazz? If it is than I love whoever added him!

by **Roaddbuster** » Mon Sep 03, 2012 3:37 am

I think it's definetly jazz. One give away is his stylish moves, and second is his blue and white color like his g1 version. I may be wrong but that's just my guess.

by **nikkinavarro** » Tue Sep 04, 2012 12:53 pm

Based on the car form its looks alot like Smokescreen considering the #38. But on the moves its looks a bit like Jazz. We'll just have to wait and see for this one. They just better not get killed right away.

: Prowl?

Maybe this image will help people figure it out?
I'm leaning more towards Prowl myself.

Looks like Prowl. Maybe the autobot was a protoform? It is solid grey like one.

That would be a little difficult.

Kewl art skillz. :APPLAUSE:

Now, I think it's either Jazz of Sideswipe, they both contain grey and most characters use their movie design.

Well, I didn't draw that. That's Hasbro's official art for Prowl from the Aligned-based upcoming MMO game "Transformers: Universe." Basically, Prime Prowl.

I know, that trailer looks interesting, I may try that game out.

What's keeping me from thinking thinking it's Prowl is that it's a rally car instead of a police vehicle, which has come to be the standard altmode for Prowl these days. Not to mention that Aligned Prowl is a Cybertronian police officer and militia, so unless this is meant to be an "unmarked" police car, the Smokescreen thing is what i'm leaning towards, especially with that 38 he's wearing.

IGN has posted an exclusive preview clip from this weeks new episode of Transformers Prime "New Recruit". As many of you have speculated, based on the number 38 on the side of his vehicle mode, the new Autobot is indeed Smokescreen. Check him out in the video embedded below. Be sure to tune into the Hub this Friday at 7:30 PM ET.
