I said to myself I wasn't gonna get anymore after Rodimus, but I thought this one was pretty cool.
The blue paint used, the golden rims, the engine chest section and the spoiler on the feet, all while keeping that boxy G1 look.
From being a Nissan/ Datsun 280ZX to a Subaru Impreza WRX, I really appreciate the features of this little figure taken from the actual vehicle.

Hey everyone, today I'm going to be reviewing this little figure of Smokescreen
Made by Transformers Titanium series and it was released ages ago
But as you can see this figure is in really good condition
really deep blue rich paint work still intact and
Looks really cool from different angles
so this is the
from the war within or the alternators line where the cars that the Transformers changed into got an upgrade or
modernized and
Smokescreen which was originally like a Nissan. I think either 280 or
300 probably 280
ZX got graded into a Subaru Impreza
But as you can see still got his little head horns, so, you know who he is
But with this blue and silver paintwork, it does look more like Blue Streak
But I guess because of the same the same bought on the same car. They're quite interchangeable. So
Let's have a look at this one in detail
If you're into diecast cars and Transformers, please do consider subscribing to my channel. Thank you
Let's take a look at this. So Smokescreen
Again we've got the custom-made artwork which each of these packets have there's this face and
on the side
Got some part of the car
Got some stuff here includes display base, which I always chuck. I don't really need those
diecast poseable
And then on the back what I really like the stats and the little biography
So here's a cool 3d line art drawing of him and then we go down to the stats
So not the strongest, but it's very intelligent
Speed is good
Endurance is okay. The courage is very good and fire blast is good. So
Let's have a look here. There's one thing smokescreen hates. It's a fair fight
That's why it's his job to make sure battle tips in favor of the Autobots
charming clever and sneaky if you can't outdrive something he can usually out talk it and
Failing that he can generate a dense cloud of magnetized smoke that sticks to and follows his victim
his weaponry includes an array of sensor disrupting missiles and
Flak launchers and an electro shock rifle that can scramble most circuitry
So I'm just going down here micro machines galoob and Hasbro if you're interested made in China
So I really like smokescreen from Transformers Prime. I
Really like his alt mode in g1, which was the racing Nissan and
Character wise really cool. This is neither of those versions
This is the alternators or binal tech version and instead of being the Nissan
He is a Subaru Impreza, which means I will have to probably get that die cast to complete this collection
But let's have a look at the bots out of the packaging
Okay, so inside the packaging was this little catalog and I think I've shown this before
But for new viewers, here we go. Beast Wars Megatron small one
star scream
g1
Unicron I reviewed that figure. I reviewed the Beast Wars one this one
I didn't get which was the which is weird. It's like Optimus was just missing a waist and this figure is just so
short
And on the back just some other brands so they did Star Wars and Battlestar Galactica as well
We've got like a checklist of all of them. Then they did the six-inch versions of these designs
Which are really cool. So here he is Megatron is as a tank the war within
That's why it really so let's have a look at the minifigure itself
so here is the base first of all just Autobot logo and as you can see, it's
Not see-through. It's kind of yellowing on the side and bases. I don't really have much use for that. So I'll be chucking that
Here this is the figure itself. This has been preserved quite nicely. It's really old
But still shining and brilliant blue
Really nice some of these figures, you know over time. I don't know where they kept maybe this high humidity and
You get this
The glues melting the legs coming off here
So this bit is plastic this bit is metal and then back to metal for the body itself
So you've got metal plastic metal and the arms are plastic too, so
Depending on who's stored it and where I stored it. It's
Where it's been stored. Sorry, it can affect the condition of the figure
Look at that nice side profile can see that square that pointed nose right there
And I like the throwback to the g1
Aesthetic with these kind of head horns on the front
So you can see if you can lift his arms up they can see the Subaru the front got the wheels underneath and
This part is the spoiler and we got the taillight so a pretty cool vehicle that they picked and
Yeah, like I mentioned I'll have to look at some brands so I can stand the
spokes screen side by side with his alt mode and this figure it's
Got the Autobot logo on the shoulders. It's very fixed like you can't really do much with it
There's just one big pose, which is the gun
Look at this gun here. There we go and on the other side pretty much the same
Just carry on looking at this figure so you can see the midsection
thighs
Inside of the leg
It's got some I like this paint. It's been done really well, and it's lasted really well, which is good
The paint on the inside of this plastic. I don't know the plastic. Sorry the color of it
Who knows whether it's yellowed underneath?
the mold or not
Sorry inside so
Anyway, it looks like a good one. There's a windscreen
inside doors
Even got the windscreen wipers here
from the bird's-eye view
This head pops up out of the engine of the car. Let's have a little zoom in on smokescreens happy face
Looks reasonably happy
Yeah, so
as I think I mentioned previously
I wasn't really sure if I was going to get any more of these because
The quality of some that I've gone have been really bad, but this one actually is really really good. So
maybe I'll
Have a check. I've got some more. I'd like to get so let me see about that
So I'm gonna put the gun in here fits very nice very snug
Pew-pew is ready for some action
so
cool, but
Different alt mode what I'm used to but hey, it's a nice figure
after all these years still so
Let's just quickly zoom out so you can see what it looks like with the gun
Here we go
it's really cool and I think
these it's a shame that these toys weren't that popular because they were starting to do remolds or reprints of
Different versions. So there was a sideswipe which was gonna later be painted yellow as a Sunstreaker with small modifications
This guy obviously, you know part of the Datsun brothers. It could have been a prowl
and
What is it?
This is smokescreen, but looks could just be blue streak to be honest, so
Yeah, it's a shame. But anyway, I hope in the future. Someone does make cool little diecast toys again of transformers
Always really fun
It's just pose and this one
Looking straight at you pew pew, right? Let's get this on the turntable
Here we go. He's looking down sadly not up. So I'd have to kind of tilt the camera
down
But yeah, really simple movements many as arms can move because the position of those legs. I mean, it's so wide
it's like a kung-fu horse stance and
There's not really much pose ability you can do that
I guess they wanted to differentiate from just the straight-up pose, which is just standing up tall
with like fists clenched looking tough and
It does add a bit of variation into the line. I'm just really happy that this figure has been well preserved
It looks paint looks really nice and I can't wait to get this guy in some kind of diorama
I've been building up a massive collection and reviewing car by car
but it'd be good to group them all especially in 2024 that could be my New Year's resolution to
Start grouping my collection bits together make some cool scenes and get some cool photos
So I've got an Instagram. I've got Twitter
I'll do some extra photos for those other accounts and you can follow me on there
But yeah, I hope you enjoyed this review
I'm quite surprised myself. I bought another one of these but there you go
I quite like the size and the pose of poses and stuff. So hope to use it later on
So yeah, hopefully see you in the next video. Take care
