Pass on Brawl, but Smokescreen would look pretty cool displayed next to my G1-repaint of Movie Jazz.

Seeing as how i have both the first iteration of Jazz and the G1 repaint im going to pass on Smokescreen. No remolds are visible and that means its just a repaint. Ill stick with the 2 i have. Think ill pass on Brawl too. Got the first one and i wasnt a fan of the mold since it wouldnt stay together.

Pass on both. Leader Brawl pwnes thid Brawl and the paintjob on Smokescreen is utter crap.

Nothing like the stale scent of shelfwarmers, especially a few months in advance...

I don't know, I may get Smokescreen despite him being a repaint (Hey, he was one in G1 too!) but Brawl, no. I'm happy as it is with my Leader one.

Kinda like Brawl's new colors but wasnt gonna waste bread on the leader. Maybe this one will compromise. But forget about smokscreen cause that paint job looks wack. It really makes it look like a toy and not a scale model should.

I'll probably get Smokescreen. I would've liked to have seen Riccochet made out of this mold though, but there's still hope.

No just a repaint but a remold in G1, that's alot better than a strait up palette swap like this guy is.

I can't believe that Smokescreen is really a full production figure. The auction pics. from a few days ago showed off such crappy quality on the paint job that I thought it was just an attempt at a custom. If Hasbros paint quality has become that bad then I won't be touching these toys with a 10 meter stun pole!
I'm actually fearful of how the rest of the Movie line is going to turn out if the standards have dropped that far.
