They'll repaint the mold as Prowl with a red-accented face just to troll the fandom. XD

 

It would have much more black, a new head, possibly remolded chest and vehicle parts, etc. It would be awesome.
Rodimus sounds really cool, too, though...

And the fandom will headswap and troll them right back.  

 

Thank god they're making a new mold for Smokescreen

 

Smokescreen is added with more armour

 

Not a bad way to end the line though. Technically it's Beast Hunters, sure, but this'll be going in my Season 1/2 Prime display.

I'm not sure if I'll be getting the rest of the Beast Hunters stuff (though that probably depends on how much I like the show), but I'll pick this up at some point, for sure.  

 

Heh, here would be one funny idea. If they remolded Knock Out into Smokescreen, how bout remolding this mold into an new Knock Out!? That might actually look pretty good out of this mold, seeing as how it failed as Knock Out in the first place!

 

I'd actually be into that... Different strokes for different folks and all that...  

 

False. They'll have to retool his face with a visor like the Prime Prowl concept design they made a while back.

 

Exactly. It sucks that the joints are loose and the plastic feels cheaper, but we're kind of getting used to that, thanks to The Economy. Im glad the weapony thangs are removable, as well. Plus, some things have been wayyy over-simplified of late, and i'd welcome a little bit of a challenge, as long as it's not too much of a pain in the butt.

Yea, i think they could do Jazz or Bluestreak maybe. Prowl could work, but since they've made sure to stay true to their concept art (Ironhide, Thundertron) i think they'd take special care to. But maybe theyll go the other way and do the Barricade we saw in tandem with that Prowl.

 

It'll be a new head like his MMO counterpart.

Who actually shares a body with Smokescreen.

 

is there a relsease "date" for smokescreen?

my local toys r us had a few figures from the BH line (4 figures to be exact...... its like a tease ....)

i must have this guy! i love his character and i hope we see plenty of him in seas 3

 

All we know is he's in Wave 2. I'd assume he should release before FoC Grimlock (due in March).

I vaguely remember something from Hasbro saying Wave-mate Ripclaw was "due out next month" a bit ago, but w/ my head injury, that can't be trusted.

 

Don't worry, I just checked the Facebook announcement for Ripclaw, and they definitely said next month-- which, of course, would be February.

 

The paintjob for smokescreen based on the pics seem nicely painted

 

What's with the smirk Smokescreen has on his packaging and the closed mouth smile he has in box?

 

If the blue does come off I may just pick it up..

 

Well, not really the same - but you're right, it's actually close enough that it would work flawlessly.  

 

There is a pretty good gallery of Smokescreen here :

Thanks RedAlert!

That arm kibble is extreme, but I'm still diggin' the figure. The transformation looks interesting.

 

There we go, that's what I wanted to see!



I'm already eagerly awaiting Reprolabels for this. He needs his "double 38s."
