Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Back on Cybertron, Smokescreen was considered a practical joker. Always ready with a gag and a laugh, he kept the mood light, even when the struggle against the black hole looked hopeless. Since the fight against the Decepticons on Earth heated up, though, his talent for trickery has been turned against the enemy. More than one Decepticon has been stuck in traffic at a series of nonfunctional toll booths on a remote road in the middle of the desert. Detailed figure changes from robot warrior to futuristic vehicle and back again! Features awesome Cyber Planet Key-activated pop-up mini-missile racks in vehicle mode and a turbo-flame pistol with a firing projectile in robot mode! The vehicle's roof becomes a shield in robot mode! Figure comes with Cyber Planet Key.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not the easiest to transform BUT..., November 3, 2006

This review is from: Smokescreen - Transformers Cybertron Deluxe (Toy)

I'll start off with a warning to parents. I would not buy this toy for any child under 10 years old. It's very hard to transform and a lot of the parts are very cumbersome to get in and out of position, especially the sections along the back wheels. The instructions, like those with most Cybertron toys, don't do you any favors as they don't make much sense. I transformred this easier once I started fiddling on my own.

That's not to say this toy doesn't have some merits. The color scheme is great and will remind some long time collectors of the 1985 Transformers toy of the same name. The robot mode isn't bad either, although it's slightly clumsy. Still, it has a decent amount of play and display value in either form.

So in a nutshell, I'd say this is a good Transformer for older kids or even adult collectors. It's probably the closest thing to the original Smokescreen you are going to see anymore, as I doubt he'll make it to the Transformers Classic line. I like this one a bit more than Alternators Smokescreen. By the way, he displays nicely next to Transformers Classics cars such as Rodimus and Bumblebee.

Now, if you absolutely have to have the original, you can find that on ebay, and the reissue version should still be here on Amazon.

I have reviewed a few other Transformers items if you found this review helpful.

1.0 out of 5 stars Transformer, December 8, 2007

A Kid's Review

= Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Smokescreen - Transformers Cybertron Deluxe (Toy)

The toy looked like so much fun on the internet until my child opened it up and actually started to manuver it it is so difficult even for an adult to change it from a car to the person we have tried for several days nobody could do it it's such a frustraing toy it has never been used since those few days and we all do not recommend it at all. p.s. It is very durable it didn't break but it is very much a strain it is impossible to play with sorry!
