Scourge has one of the coolest alternate modes of any transformer. This beast mode is very poseable for what it is, and is very cool. The head is great, and has joints at the base of the neck, the head, and the jaw. The planet key springs out two other heads next to the main one, making Scourge a three-headed dragon. Transformation is simple enough, yet engaging. Robot mode is just as menacing, but not quite as good. Here, his arms lack some poseability which was sacrificed for the beast mode. (For which I am very grateful) His tail undergoes minor adjusting to become an axe for him to hold. In all, solid robot mode, awesome beast mode, and a really cool toy.

Like a lot of animal-based Transformers, Scourge pretty much just rears back on his hind legs to transform. However, he has a decent amount of articulation, a wicked looking battle axe weapon, and those cool pop-out heads which work in dragon or robot mode. The necks actually have limited poseability to them, and Scourge's sound effects change depending on what form he's in for an overall total of three different sounds from the same buttons: roaring, lasers, and the famous transformation sound effect. The high-pitched dragon roar could get annoying for parents after a while, so you might want to figure out where the batteries are quickly.

Scourge is one of the best Transformers made so far and I liked his Dragon mode but he should have made him more challenging to transform. Scourge has cool detail with the arms they look like wings!

Pros: frightening design; cool color scheme; hydra heads are a nice touch; battle axe looks deadly

Pros or Cons: easy transformation; robot's wrists cannot rotate to form the natural arm position (when his arms are at his sides, the insides of his elbows face his body instead of forward; animal tail has simple one-joint articulation

Cons: not as much articulation of the necks and heads in animal mode as there could be

Scourge should be world wide because kids are dieing for it. it should be in toywiz, target, walmart, and to believe toys-r-us. SO PLEASE GET SCOURGE IN SOON!

This guy comes with miniture heads. When you use the force chip in his beast mode, his extra heads pop out and makes a G1 sound. His weapon looks very powerful. His beast and robot mode look very awsome. This guy is awsome. Get him now!!!

The 3-headed dragon has to be one of the most unique Transformer. Scourge is an iconic figure among the Transformers. Colors are excellent and accurate to the Cybertron cartoon series. The figure is well detailed and sculpted. It displays very nicely. A must-have if you are an avid collector.

I am a 6 year old boy. I got Scourge for my birthday last October. He is super powerful. He turns into a dragon. Scourge always frustrates me because his tail always falls off. Also, the different colored cyberkeys don't fit in him. You need to use only the Jungle Planet cyberkeys.

The dragon returns to Transformers with a vengence with Jungle Planet's ultimate warlord, Scourge. It's been three years since the last dragon Transformer and Scourge makes the wait worth while.

Like his more recent dragon-moded predecessors, Scourge is a member of the villian's, though you'll have to activate this figure's cyber-key feature to see his insignias. He has an impressive beast mode, colored with a mix of orange, yellow, red, brown, and purple that works surprisingly well. You'd hate to see this guy stomping towards you in the rainforests. A button in his back activates his "dragon scream" and lights up his eyes and the inside of his mouth, giving Scourge the impressions that he's gearing up for a fiery blast.

Trasformation to robot mode is fairly simple, and one might not even need the instructions to do so. In robot mode, Scourge looks the part of a vicious warlord of a hostile planet. The tail becomes a battle ax in this form, and the "dragon-scream" feature still works. Close scrutiny of the head will reveal a similarity with the various forms of BW Megatron; Scourge even has the tusks of the crocodile variant at the beginning of BW.

Scourge comes with a green and gold leafed Jungle cyber key with which to activate his primary feature. Stick the key into the small port in his back, just behind the sound button, and two additional dragon heads will flip out from both sides of the figure's head. In addition, you'll hear the classic transformation sound effect that goes back to G1. This feature is present in both forms, tough you may want to keep Scourge in his dragon mode to effectively store the key in either the port or his chest.

There are several cons to this figure, several of which have been touched on by others. His simplistic transformation for an ultra is one; Scourge essentially "rears up". Another is his relative lack of articulation. These are mostly concentrated in the limbs. The main beast head "nods" slighty, the mouth opens and closes, and the tail kinda "flaps" up and down. The neck can go up and down, mostly due to how the figure transforms, and is not nearly as articulates as the TM2 and RID Megatrons. He's got less articulation in robot mode; again concentrated in the arms and legs. The lack of wrist motion has been touched on by other reviewers.

Despite the flaws, Scourge is a excellent figure for your collection.

I got Scourge for Christmas he was really cool and I love his beast mode.If you keep the cyber planet key in scourge at all times it is very hard to lose.Or just put it in most of the way for that only a centimeter is left or very thin strip.Scourge is the collest you should get him!
