Attention UK collectors! 2005 Board member Underlord is giving us the heads up of his sighting of the Transformers Earthrise Wave 2 Deluxe Smokescreen at UK retail.
Smokescreen was spotted at Smyths in Tollgate. It’s good to point out that only 3 copies of Smokescreen were found, with no trace of the rest of this wave’s figures (Arcee, Allicon and Airwave). We hope the other toys will pop up soon an it’s not a Smokescreen solid case. 2005 Boards member Gumblor Gimbles sent us photographic proof that this is an Smokescreen solid case for the UK market.
Happy hunting!

I’ve used Star Action Figures before, very reliable.

I ordered Smokescreen and a couple of others (Sunstreaker and Trailblazer) from UK store staractionfigures.
While it still seems out of stock at the moment, it’s good to know he’s crossed the pond. Oddly while the others appear as ‘preorder, available in September’ Smokescreen just appears out of stock and unavailable to order at all at the moment.
I find this a tad confusing since preorders are implicitly out of stock anyway, or they wouldn’t be ‘preorders’. I’m guessing this just means they kept a limit on the initial preorders and those were fulfilled. Thankfully I got my preorder in before that happened.

Big Bang comics in Dublin have him in stock too (fantastic place for transformers). I just picked up smokescreen and Snapdragon there. They also still have the siege gen selects smokescreen in stock.

Same for Smyths Germany. We had some weird sightings of single figures from a price point at the beginnig of the year as well.

I saw ER smokey in Smyths in Barnsley on Monday lunch – well done @Underlord appears a few of us didn’t see what was under our nose

Yeah, Hasbro UK seems to have started shipping solid cases to Smyths, it's seemingly one remaining bricks and mortar retail customer for Generations, as well as the specialists like Kapow and IDToys. See the initial Earthrise sightings start of the year
Smokescreen's been in stock since the week starting 7th, nobody got a photo before now

In France and most European countries as well , we have solid case of deluxe, that is why we only got Wheeljack and Cliffjumper in March, and hoist/ironworks in April

Yeah I picked up a Smokescreen and a Quintesson last week from my local Smyths. I used the click and collect to buy my one’s and I checked the shelves before I collected them but, didn't see any Smokescreens or Quintessons on the shelves. From the stock amounts they showed online on the instore stock checker, it looked like solid cases of each.

If you think your distribution is messed up in socal then it’s really not gonna be something to your liking over here in the UK. We have to hope for table scraps.
