There was already a thread made about this. . .

But that definitely could hint to him being in the game. I can recall Boon saying in one of his interviews that there was some things in the demo that went unseen or something to that effect. Maybe this is something that he was talking about. . .

OR

This could just be a generic dummy to be put in everyone's little variation animations if there's a need for one.

Ah, didn't see the thread , my bad. Though, it looks to be a real character. A dummy would have looked simpler I'd say

That's true too, he does look overly detailed to be a dummy too. Playing Devil's Advocate here. But, you know, there could be two sides to everything. If it is Smoke, that would be awesome though. It'd be interesting to how he would progress and change over the years. Maybe he'd be a cyborg this time around.

From what I recall, there is someone who look similar in Ferra/Torr animation thing, I think it's their variation that's in the middle.

Does anyone know if the two people in the variation of them and Kotal look the same?

I think most of us really want smoke in, and i really hope he makes the cut.
