I see a bright and glorious G1 future. Just have hope and believe! We just need the fans to compromise.

I just heard a gasp coming from the vicinity of Fife.

I... I can't tell what I'm suppose to be looking at. And why Fife? Does Fife have a particular connection to Scorponok? |

Not Scorponok specifically... more The Rebirth.

It's been a bit of a rollercoaster of a mad theory day so far. General consensus seems to be that Scorponok is based on Omega Supreme based on the waist engineering. But if that's the case, then given we know that this Scorponok is meant to be a double headmaster like Fortress Maximus, then he'd end up looking something like this:
Which lead me to the conclusion that actually, in the same way that Omega's tank comes out of the chest, that Scorponok wouldn't be a double-headmaster, but that the smaller robot will end up living in the larger robot's chest:
Based on the look of the smaller robot:
And looking at the scorpion mode head I wasn't convinced that the "helmet" wasn't going to remain on the body, as with the original.
But then this came up:
Which actually looks like I'd gotten it wrong. And then this:
clearly shows that the orange antennae come off the helmet... which could be because they'd otherwise just be hanging off the smaller robot awkwardly. So they detach and come there instead.
So... is he actually a double headmaster and did I just the get scale wrong, or am I on to something here...?

Double Headmaster then.
Shockprowl, is he on your list?

Scorponok's base ramp is reminding me of what Omega Supreme's tank looks like with the front folded down.

Strange that they also picture the original Micromaster toys here. Seen that done before as place holders. |

Double Headmaster then. Shockprowl, is he on your list? No chance. Shockers hates headmasters. |

Lots of interesting hypothesis on Scorponok and his size/Headmaster but personally, the smaller he is, the happier I will be.
I just hope he has a decent gold Marvel face. It was the same model as in the US cartoon but that was white.

I'm wondering if a Weaponiser version of Fasttrack assembles from all the odd bits left over...

I am comforted by the fact that there are an extremely limited number of guys who fit the Commander Class scale (and even fewer still that Hasbro will acknowledge), and Scorponok and Fort Max are two of them. |

Fasttrack is sold separately as a deluxe. That Scorponok would be everything I want, if he weren't over a foot too tall |

Anyone capable of rebalancing the colours on the base mode picture so it matches the other modes?

It's either a new feature: color changing plastic, or it's a super rare blind packed variant.
