Following on from their new product listings for Masterpiece TigerTracks, Big Bad Toy Store have posted two pre-order pages for more Masterpiece figures. The first is MP-17 Prowl who is due out in July with MP-18 being a recolour / remould into Smokescreen who is due out in August. Surely this means that it is only time until Bluestreak is confirmed as well which opens up a whole host of potential recolours including the fabled "blue" Bluestreak.

TFW2005 have a review of Transformers Prime Arms Micron Smokesceen and S2 which you can read by following the link
Summary
Smokescreen is a remolded version of Transformers Prime Knock Out. This presents an immediate issue with show accuracy, because even with remolding, Smokescreen lacks a few design elements from his CG model on the show - the most notable being the door wings on his back. But let's not linger on the negatives - Smokescreen does manage to look different from Knock Out with his stickers, remolded rear end in vehicle mode and his new head. The head sculpt captures the character well - I'd have personally given him a smirk rather than a serious determined look - but it goes a good way to giving Smokescreen his own identity. The head is spot-on to the look of the character in the show. Stickers give Smokescreen the rest of his deco.
Smokescreen comes with Arms Micron S2, a Micron with a slender and "ornate" look. He's only poseable in the arms, but that seems to be average for the Arms Microns. S2 turns into a high-tech bow weapon for Smokescreen, which I don't recall ever seeing used in the show - yet - but if you fold S2's "wings" in you get a laser weapon that looks like an arm cannon that Smokescreen might equip for battle. In any event, the option to make it into a "gun" or "bow" lends a bit of appeal to the character.
Overall, Smokescreen is an alright release. If you disliked the design on Knock Out there is not a lot here that will change your mind, and the lack of show accuracy is a detractor. However it could be far worse, and as of the moment, this is the only Smokescreen toy available outside the upcoming Legends class in Beast Hunters.

TFW2005.com member DrillBit has posted some images of more upcoming Japanese exclusive figures. The first is an image of the Tokyo Toy Show exclusives which are a repaint of the Transformers Revenge of the Fallen NEST Mindwipe and Skystalker figures into Generation Two Dreadwind and Smokescreen along with a Transformers Animated exclusive white repaint of Prowl who is called Elite Guard Prowl. Prowl will cost 2,500 yen and Dreadwing / Smokescreen will be 5,500yen. The figures will be available at the TakaraTomy booth on the 17th and 18th July as well as having a limited number available on e-Hobby. Like other exclusives of a similar vein, the figures will be limited to a few thousand.
Next is an image of another "Welcome to Transformers 2010" figure that will be sold as a Toy Hobby Market exclusive. The figure is Primus and is a recolour of the Transformers Cybertron / Galaxy Force Primus figure. No word yet on whether the figure will be limited to 2010 pieces like Sleep Mode Convoy (who was also limited to 2 pieces per person) or whether he will be produced in higher quantities with an unlimited amount like the Unicron figure (both of these figures will be available in limited quantities from Transformers At The Moon so we may also offer the Primus figure as well). Primus is out in October and costs 9,450yen.
