- Sonic Shock Smokescreen (Fast Action Battler, 2008)
- Accessories: Missile
- A <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Redeco" title="Redeco">redeco</a> of "Ion Blast" <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Jazz_%28Movie%29" title="Jazz (Movie)">Autobot Jazz</a>, "Sonic Shock" Smokescreen sports a red and blue colour scheme based very closely upon <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Generation_1" class="mw-redirect" title="Generation 1">Generation 1</a> <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Smokescreen_%28G1%29" title="Smokescreen (G1)">Smokescreen</a>.
In vehicle mode he's kind of a squat and cutified Pontiac Solstice, while in robot mode he bears a decent resemblance to various Generation 1 hood-chest Transformers. Amusingly, <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Fast_Action_Battler" title="Fast Action Battler">Fast Action Battler</a> Smokescreen's head is mounted on a piece of plastic extending from the roof/windshield piece, just like the Generation 1 toy. His articulation is limited to his shoulders, hips and knees, and he has a missile launcher in place of his left hand.

- Smokescreen (2007)
- Card number: 12
- Smokescreen is a 29-point "Uncommon" piece in the <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/3D_Battle-Card_Game" title="3D Battle-Card Game">3D Battle-Card Game</a>.
Constructed of punch-out pieces from randomly-packed plastic cards (two full robots per pack), he can be assembled into his car mode (model undetermined), or into a rather stumpy robot mode. One of his blaster-weapons is held in his right hand, the other can mount on either shoulder.
- He uses the same construction as the <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Cliffjumper_%28Movie%29" title="Cliffjumper (Movie)">Cliffjumper</a> and Jazz cards. This style is similar to the one used by <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Barricade_%28Movie%29" title="Barricade (Movie)">Barricade</a>, <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Earth" title="Earth">Earth</a>-mode <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Bumblebee_%28Movie%29" title="Bumblebee (Movie)">Bumblebee</a>, and <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Swerve_%28Movie%29" title="Swerve (Movie)">Swerve</a>.
- This was actually the first "appearance" of the movieverse Smokescreen.
