    As the original G1 Smokescreen toy's head was identical to that of Prowl and Bluestreak (aside from colour).


    Marvel/Sunbow modifed the heads of Prowl, Bluestreak and Smokescreen to help make them look different from each other.


    Prowl has the most toy-accurate head out of the Fairlady Autobots. You can see that they altered Bluestreak's helmet has a different crest and is missing the side lobes ("ears"). Bluestreak also has a more pronounced chin.

    Now here's Smokescreen's comic/show model:

    You can see that his helmet is shaped like a hooded cowl which does distinguish him further from Prowl & Bluestreak.

    Binaltech Smokescreen's head features the cowl.


    The head was retooled for Binaltech Bluestreak with the cowl removed.


    BT Red Alert's head is a straight repaint of Bluestreak's (no retooling)


    And yeah, the artists/animators also made differences throughout the bodies, but I'm just comparing heads here. You get the idea.

    There's some paint apps around the face, but no retooling.

    So it means Smokescreen wont be a CLub Exclusive figure will it? It's going to be mass retail one? Hasbro's not going to pull a seeker episode on us again will they?

    That's right, Smokescreen will be released to retail next year.

    Apparently his robot mode is alot more like the cartoon's CGI design, but to get this he transforms differently to the original toy.
