Video Review of the Transformers Prime: Beast Hunters Smokescreen

[@AstonWave007]

I really love the fact that you go through and show people how to transform into robot mode and back into vehicle mode in your reviews. It helps those of us that don't mess with their figures for a while.

[@DarrenWatson64]

I had hesitation in getting this figure at first, but after I finally get my hands on it, my opinion has actually changed. I'm happy to have both the Takara Tomy and Hasbro versions together in my collection.

[@gigs3]

Reading the comments you would think that you make and distribute all the Transformers yourself in a little workshop. People are just..adorable.

[@cwagungood]

You guys probably already know, but this is Wave 3 Deluxe Classes: Ratchet, Dreadwing, and Skystalker. Wave 2 Voyager Class figures only has one new figure: Shockwave. And Wave 3 Voyager Class figures is gonna have Grimwing and Ultra Magnus. CAN'T WAIT FOR 'EM!

[@brandonbaggaley2317]

Smokescreen saves Optimus' life, retrieves the Forge of Solus Prime to have Optimus repair himself. Prime refuses and tells him that the reason he was sent to retrieve it to repair the Omega Lock. So. Optimus dies and passes the mantal of leadership to Smokescreen at the end of episode three of the third season.

[@swalstar]

Thank you for actually pointing out the flaws in this figure, I could see them in other reviews but no one actually complained about them. If you don't ask, you don't receive..

[@chadwickbennett1217]

smokescreen's net is used to capture or covering the beast's mouth ,try locking the net and putting it over ripclaw or lazer back mouth in there beast form

[@lalo198080]

I just got him at target today along with bulkhead thanx for ur help to transform him to car mode his arms are a pain in the ass

[@jacksonwojnowski4535]

I'm glad he has a nice clean sleek mode without all the armor.One reason I didn't get many Beast Hunter figures was because all of them just had ridiculous looking armor.

[@BleedingEdgeIronMan]

Optimus will be back, HE TRUELY HAS THE TOUCH

[@hughmungus3470]

Still, Optimus reappearing made it my FAVORITE episode of Beast Hunters so far.

[@sethquigley5136]

Thankyou for this review. Now I know what to improve once I get Smokescrean.

[@kingdragoonmk10]

magnetic smoke cancels out radar and other opticle aids needed to find him in the smoke screen unlike normal smoke screen where you can use infer red to see him plane as day

[@bendundidit]

As far as the head coloration, maybe it changes in the third season. Since he does have the ability to appear as both his original form and a beast hunters form, perhaps he is actually a beast hunter in the upcoming season and not some one off form like I'm hoping dinobot ratchet is.

[@Meteorburst9000]

Smokescreen is the new prime plot twist

[@riffatshaikh3808]

can't wait for the first ep for beast hunters march 23

[@dantherandomgamer5743]

i will buy two og this for the transformers prime rid line and this transformers prime beast hunters line

[@anthimospolitis9882]

One of my favorite figures

[@dismantle123]

having said that i'll have to pick this up since i am not getting the AM version. thanks for the review finally.

[@deaddreamdance]

Instead,Optimus Prime had a vision of some sort.This vision was about Optimus joining with the Allspark thus unleashing all the Matrix's power and Smokescreen puts the forge into Optimus's hand allowing him to repair himself and fusing with the Allspark to increase power

[@sirchucky1701]

i agree on the feet and the paint apps on him , great review as always

[@riffatshaikh3808]

there will be a new PRIME [WATCH TRAILER FOR BEAST HUNTERS ]

[@megagene]

I know that G1 Smokescreen's thing was that his smoke cloud clung to or covered whatever it enveloped. I think they referred to it back then as "magnetized smoke", or something like that. Didn't make sense back then either. :P

[@gigs3]

Damn right I'm gonna book the damn date.

[@sleepinpizzas11]

This guy may be the new prime

[@theprimo100]

There is a Takara redeco coming sometime soon, I think.

[@AllenJoeLa]

hey optibotimus, you said that you could get one but there all SOLD OUT!

[@UncannyEXP]

Honestly not what I expected of this figure.It is actually BETTER than what I expected! Good review!

[@bobgilmer]

So far, he is the only one of the beast hunter line i will get

[@ransax]

Honestly, this is the first non-Predacon Beast Hunters figure that I don't find absolutely HIDEOUS. Shockwave seems like he will look very nice, as well.

[@1025Haruto]

By the way, it's called hunter smokescreen in case you don't know the name

[@ChipmunkRaccoon3]

Let's hope we'll get to see the BH Voyager Shockwave soon.

[@josh34primefan]

I don't mind the paint, AT LEAST WE HAVE GOT A SMOKESCREEN TOY!!!!! YEY!!!! (Hasbro release not the Takara)

[@alex30059]

Hmm. Is it hinting that Voyager Shockwave is going to be released soon?

[@RoyFokker93]

You, Emgo, Peaugh and SeanxLong should make a "reviewer´s council" or something like that XD, you guys rock!!

[@megatron2171]

Baltmatrix stressed out when he transformed this figure into the car mode

[@connormarriott3392]

11:41.... is that a party popper thing in the background or is it just me? Having a celebration are, Paul? ;)

[@JasonSawyer]

Funny that they used the AM look for the Cyberverse Smokescreen. Probably all for lower costs.

[@djlamar2]

I just got this toy today. Its awesome

[@ethanwilliams5396]

I saw the promo for episode 4 optimus go offline and there's a big blue light in front of smokescreen

[@TekuJames]

Looking forward to more videos Paul and I am a kid and I like something a little accurate too what it is

[@SparkRattle]

To get a fix on that red, I suggest using red gundam marker. Just a tip.

[@BrickDevilTributes]

*gets smokescreen figure* *show returns with repaint of Smokescreen* me: well, this really sucks.

[@braddeerrzz]

I actually kinda like the armour on the front of the car

[@CristopherCutas]

I finally have this, I like the mold so much I even bought prowl :D

[@bozhidardimitrov3573]

Really good review. It really made me want Smokescreen.

[@BishyB]

13:21 nearly killed the camera LOL

[@worldlysaint]

its possible that he might look like that in beast Hunters.

[@biosonic100]

The price at getting show-accuracy is a complicated transformation.

[@Reptelien]

cool review but i think the colors/details is from the third season. since every one is getting some sort of armor.

[@vaderthesithlord12]

there will be a redeco of this guy for takara tomy

[@tonystewartrocks14]

This guy must be flying off shelves because I went to Toys R Us yesterday and couldn't find him. I really wanna get him. Nice review as always!

[@leonarimus]

im a kid and i care, greatly, how the paint apps are

[@ragamuffin66]

actually, your exposure near the camera is perfect, but indeed, the background does go "hot" now and then. perhaps a layer of diffusion over the lights, or move the lights more to the side. the best light comes from large, close, diffused light. indirect light is even better ( I'm a professional photographer, since you asked the last guy) your reviews are great, and i love how you give a balance of good and bad. I don't see why people get upset. thats what a review is!

[@godzilla294]

hes invisible with that one relic from icion the fade shifter

[@justusphillips5574]

I CANT WAIT FOR FRIDAY!!!!!!!!

[@chadwickbennett1217]

I'll keep u updated on what to do with transformers,tf4 is coming out in June 2014 if they do feature smokescreen in the movie i hope they give him a little assassin's creed look to him. ur biggest fan.chad

[@tcturtle89]

was loving this transformer till i got to the arms back to vehicle mode

[@OhioFanatic97]

No...what i mean is that I agree with you and the color, i still enjoy the figure reagrdless of any faults that it has

[@UgotSHOCKWAVED]

smokescreen got a poncho. "great"

[@RoyFokker93]

Hoping to see some ideas of this mold used on a Beast Hunters Knockout (if Hasbro make one haha)

[@ahchiu9]

Nice review! I picked up the fig about a week ago. I like it, but like you said, it's dying for some reprolabels. I really hope one comes out soon.

[@dethkruzer]

I've got the Takara version on pre-order. looking forward to it.

[@calvinj7496]

dont worry mr.optibotimus... your still an optimist prime for me ...:)

[@BikerTrashWolf]

fairly involved transformation for a deluxe. Cant look at it and not think of Armada Ramjet, gonna be a pass I am thinking :/

[@1025Haruto]

I have smokescreen in the Takara version but it's the one from transformers go (which is like the beast hunters for Japan.) and it's the repaint version of that. I highly recommend you to get it.

[@ragamuffin66]

just curious, are they reflective, or shoot-troughs. regardless. still top notch reviews. expressive and fairly balanced

[@thugg4lif]

the armor is bunk, so glad i can toss it

[@abraham9915]

optibotimus, emgo316 says that you can put those car things on his arms on his back. so watch his review of smokescreen and he'll tell you where to learn that.

[@timothysmith2998]

Get shockwave now Paul

[@TheMightyTyrantrum]

The armor looks cool only in vehicle mode

[@TheUnseen111]

Is it just me or does his vehicle mode look like a Wrecker?

[@lalo198080]

His transformation reminds me of 1st edition bumblebee

[@563Ben]

Buy another and do a repaint! That's what I'm gonna eventually do, even though it's probably gonna look like crap!

[@CannonFodder93]

G1 Smokescreen used magnetic smoke :D

[@dglenn247]

@optibotimus maybe his paint is true to beast hunters? that would make your angst for not

[@45prowl]

Whats the quality of these figures are they good cuz he and shockwave look awesome

[@liecyetanzil1849]

you need to review the Transformers RID power surge optimus prime warrior class

[@cameronbates3424]

I like your reviews

[@zainul0021]

I think I know the reason why Smokescreen and Shockwave have removable armor, because they're new character and have a new mold toy... because some collectors wanted them to display as normal body armor to their basic Transformers Prime Collections Shelves

[@HazeBre3]

I know the video is old, but I just got Prowl and that transformation is messy. Like there's just a seam running from the top of the car to the hood of the car just to get stuff to stay tabbed in.

[@Diamondking567]

Hasbro made the film so he new any way. The 1987 film was from Hasbro. Michel bay is Pms and ........ YOU GET IT!!!!!!!!

[@kevinchester5217]

I honestly think he needs to be a voyager cause he's a race car race cars needs to be big

[@kennethwaters1311]

still a better love story then twilight

[@optimusskywalker]

agreed.my 7 year old brother walked with me into a toy store today and said "why are there so many bumblbees"?.Bumblbee is his favourite transformer of all time,then arcee,and even he is sick to death of so many bumblbees

[@fduranthesee]

optimus repaires himself.... Liek A baws!!!

[@drose143]

SMOKESCREEN toy is awesome !!

[@Lewis_Ald]

I think that the removable armour is good but maybe it could be a bit better quality wise?

[@brandonbaggaley2317]

The Matrix loses its power at the end of the first season. So, Prime doesn't hand the Matrix over to Smokescreen.

[@Tdog9620]

When I used my headphones, I heard some sort of birthday sound, I hope it doesn`t was only me that heard it

[@Imajumpinthat]

he looks cool :)

[@lyndon_rich]

It reminds me of jazz in the movie

[@aimanishtik3412]

I want two!!!!

[@kevongiroir]

Optibotimus I like your video review

[@HNY-GRL]

more paint!!!

[@ziggy78eog]

And I thought Ratchet was fiddly.

[@Garzilla97]

how small is he compare to first edition Optimus?

[@GladDestronger]

do you know who hasbro/takara could retool this guy into? the g2 color changer Drench. they bear a more than passing resemblance to each other don't you think?

[@KZN02]

That "axe" is more like a flyswatter.

[@Optimalillusion]

If you tab the net together, I bet that is the capture net form, and untabbed is the axe mode. That would make sense. Quick look at TFWiki shows the armor actually folds back at the top, so you don't have that arch above his head. Weird gimmick, wonder how it will play into the show?

[@nathanhenriques5822]

what if in the movie beast hunters predecons rising smokescreen turns different?
