The reason they went with 80 is because 38 came from a very iconic racer back in the 60s and his number was 38 so they based smokescreen off of his car and now it's hard to get licensing for the number
They modelled the livery of Smokescreen to the #83 Electramotive Datsun 280ZX Turbo. This car raced in the early 80s IMSA GTO Championship. Don Devendorf won the 1982 IMSA title in the Datsun. www.racingsportscars.com/driver/photo/Don-Devendorf-USA.html
Good review bro, I have Smokescreen and I always loved his color scheme. I'm not a big fan of bright colored weapons, even white weapons are just weird looking to me. I think realistically most weapon colors are black, silver, grey, and maybe a dark brownish with maybe a combination of the few. I definitely will be looking to another source for realistic looking weapons.
Apparently there are some issues of this figure that come with gray weapons (running change?). I've seen one review of such, I think it was PrimevsPrime's.
As someone who has brothers I can tell you that people always say that we look alike, which is just wrong because I'm the best looking at of all of them!😆
I really like this new Smokescreen, he looks fantastic! Aside from his blue weapons that should be silver, I agree on that. His head reminds me a lot from his MP counterpart, and I think I will get my hands on him quite soon, saw him in stores already, very cool review, Paul!
With my figure the top of the car mode doesn't line up with the back correctly so it sticks up a bit. I've seen this in other reviews too. Does anyone know how to fix this or is it just how it is for some?

@@bowelrupture i pretty much learned nothing from that because I already knew all that as a car guy
Great figure I have it and it’s awesome 😎. And of all the places to get a transformer I got it at ALDIS
I’m still convinced the 80 represents the amount of times prowl has arrested him for gambling 🤣
Or speeding
@@octaviasilverman9797 maybe the speeding was so prowl couldn’t book him for gambling so he got booked for speeding instead 😂
Maybe
@@dillonworkman931 the possibility is endless when it comes to Smokey
I agree stacy I also loved your bumblebee review
He really has a "smokescreen"
Just got my smokescreen and per usual gotta go to my transformers go to guy to get the skinny
I was lucky enough to find Smokescreen at Walmart!
Same
Me to dude wasn't even expecting to see him but scooped him up
Amazon was supposed to deliver my Earthrise Iornhide and Prowl today and they postponed delivery until January 6th!
Yeah mind was delayed to November and now to December
Hey optibotimus soundwave here have you considered reviewing the Zeus toys upscaled ss 56 leader shockwave since you reviewed the original figure
Mine was delayed to anytime between Nov 23rd to Dec 4th
Strangely enough wave 2 showing up at Aldi’s lol
Got some deluxes on sale for 8.99 at aldi's this week.

I am sorry optibotimous but it has been a week and you still haven't made a review on the new ironhide and prowl yet
That's because I haven't had it delivered yet. You know that I have to wait like other people too right?
Well done figure.
this smokescreen is epic, I still wonder why transformers review channels have so many subscribers but so low views
I think that they changed the numbers on Smokescreen and Jazz because of licensing.
He is a awesome figure I'm going to get him thank you for the review Paul also hes a Nissan fairlady z
optibotimous please get the new erthrise prowl and ironhide toy there amazing
I have it ordered

I'm early this time and he is reviewing my favorite autobot that isn't Optimus.
