Transformers Kingdom Deluxe Class Beast Era Scorponok
Incredibly loyal to Megatron, yet also incredibly incompetent, Scorponok serves as Megatron’s second-in-command after Dinobot defects to the Maximals. A bumbling simpleton, Scorponok will do anything to please his commander-in-chief.
While he was amusing to watch as a bumbling idiot in the Beast Wars saga, Scorponok would eventually meet his fate when he (and Terrorsaur) fell into the lava beneath the Predacon base following their hover platforms malfunctioning as a result of a quantum surge across the planet. Ending both Predacon’s lives anticlimactically.
Scorponok can fire missiles from his claws.
He also comes with his Cyberbee drone for scouting areas, as well as delivering viruses to their targets. In one episode, his Cyberbee turns Optimus Primal into a berserker.
If all else fails, the still got his pincers to crush Maximals with.
Overall, a somewhat decent modern day “update” for the character, as it’s been ages since we got a proper Beast Wars Scorponok to pair up with the other Predacons (it’s usually just Megatron who gets a toy release). Unfortunately, he’s disappointingly too short when posed next to other figures in the line. He should at least be taller than Blackarachnia and about the same height as Airazor. I’m on the fence as to whether to get the upgrade kit for his legs, as they would get in the way of the alt mode. Hmm.. decisions, decisions…
