Potential toy of the year. It's really good. Fool. THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE. Well Airwave/Hothouse is going to be stiff competition for "toy of the year" yes.... |

I don't know whose idea it was to give Scorponok a forward head tilt but I'm not sure it was a good one!
The square orange platform, surrounding the cavity for the smaller Zarek titanmaster, tips down at the front. All well and good, Scorponok can look down, but if the head then comes off while it's tipped forward it's a) a ****er to get the head back on and b) a ****er to rock the platform back as pushing back on the head causes it to come off!

2 weeks in and I'm loving Scorponok. He's spent most of that time in scorpion mode next to me on the sofa but has been evicted by the Mrs.
I'd doubted about doing him that large with a second Headmaster robot ala Cerebros but they've made it work.
I wish they'd given his blast effects a bit more thought: he's got a 3 part blast effect recycled from Jetfire. No complaints there, especially as the long thin part is ideal for his cannon. The problem is I could do with FOUR of them so all the cannons are firing at once! Even if I thieved from Jetfire that would still be only three of the cannon barrels firing.
Ideally I could do with quite a few more of these ones as the effect - whole or tip - looks great coming from Megatron's fusion cannon too!

The only solution is for you to buy FOUR Scorponoks. This would also make your City larger.

How many Scorponoks are there?
I think Liz might struggle with FOUR Scorponoks. We're already having to think how we can explain his mysterious colour change to her down the line. "No dear, the giant robot Scorpion was always back and gold, not green & purple, please don't look in the cupboard!"

The only solution is for you to buy FOUR Scorponoks. Surely a better, and cheaper, solution would be for Shockprowl to buy his daughters the Siege Jetfire they so desperately want and send me the fireblasts from that? |

A box of blast effects would make an excellent Generations Selects accessories pack-in. |

If you look closely at his parts picture you can jut about see his Airlock connector, shown in Doublecross' renders, in the small of his back |

Yup, Fasttrack for robot mode, Fasttrack 2 for Scorponok's spear and Roritchi for Black Zarak's spear. Possibly a second Roritchi might be in order
