looks great, interesting transformation, sounds are greatly improved from the deluxe armada figues, BUT!

i think the collector obsession with tight joints has gotten to hasbro's collective brain. the last couple of energon toys i got (scorponok and arcee) have both been TOO tight, by a lot, and with scorponok it's so much the case that some of his semi-detachable parts tend to come off during every transformation.

...but they pop back on easily enough, so it's not that big a deal.

i'm mostly a g1 fan, so i kinda wish he was a LOT bigger, but as it is now he's sitting in my office comfortably and threateningly holding arcee off the ground with one hand and scaring the crap out of starscream with the other.

neat.



oh, my other gripe is some minor difficulty in posability. his legs and arms aren't really as flexible as they might be, and he can't stand freely in robot mode with his tail up.

Skorponok is the first transformer energon I bought and is still my favorite. (Except maybe for Landmine who might tie) He is totally awesome. He has three modes and looks totally different in every one. His basic vehicle mode is a mechanical scorpion on tank treads. This mode is my favorite. A cockpit on his tail slides back to fold out two awesome stinger things. His robot mode is totally cool. His tail come up over his head to join the combat. There are two laser things on his chest that come off into his hands. Also his claws open up and two missiles came fire. There are also machine guns on his hips that rotate. Then, finally, his flight mode. I think it's really impressive that they were able to put such a cool third mode into this guy.The one complaint I have is that my toy's visor isn't a solid color. It's clear, and when it goes down over his face it looks a little goofy. But other than that, Scorponok is the best transformer I've seen yet.

this toy is awsome it has three modes hoverjet,scorpion,and robotmode this toy is also very durable i dropped it and none of the piece's came of his color scheme is good and one of his only weapon's is clear yellow claws on his hands all in all this transformer is one of the best energon toys out

This Scorponok toy is very well made. It has a lot of details on it and has the same powerful look it has in the cartoon. The toy is reasonably posable as well and the joints are strong, meaning it will be a long time before the joints become so loose that it can't pose anymore. The durability of this toy is very good and it can withstand some tough impact.
So why does this toy only get a three out of five star? The toy was given the wrong colors. Ther are no oranges in the original Scorponok and they should be yellow, purple, or light green instead. There aren't any parts with transparent yellow colors in the original design as well. Some repaint on this toy is needed if you want this toy to look like it does in the show.

THIS COULD BE THE BEST FIGURE OF THEM ALL IN THE ENERGON LINE. HE IS A TRIPLE CHANGER. ROBOT MODE PLANE MODE AND A SCORPION CRANE MODE KINDA THING. HAS SOUND EFFECTS LIKE GUNS BLASTING AND TRANSFORMING SOUNDS. THE CLAWS MOVE AND ATTACK IN THE FRONT. GO OUT AND GET THIS TOY EVEN THOUGH HE IS NOT AS COOL AS THE ORIGINAL HE IS GREAT STILL.

I really like my Scorponok figure. I've heard several complaints about tight joints and the like, but I have no problem with them. Still not quite used to the "ratchet" joints that they're using alot more of in the mega and ultra figures. As for the poseability to these joints, I'd say it's relatively good. Overall a really fun toy if you can deal with the noises that go with it (take out the batteries if they bother you).

Strong, sturdy, original, one of a kind, this is SCORPONOK. Not your typical TRANSFORMER. High attention to detail, the perfect color combination, not a vehicle or a wepon, SCORPONOK is in a league of his own. Imagine that; from scorpion to space ship to robot, all in one! This DECEPTICON is afraid of no-one, includeing MEGATRON. Do you think he will get his revenge on MEGATRON? Maybe so, just don't try to use the energon stinger again(this tends to energize MEGETRON.) Seriously, SCORPONOK is a bad dude. He truely is a wicked TRANSFORMER!

The quality is amazing. The creativity is ingenious. The toy is awesome. In all forms, this toy looks imposing. I was very surprised when the sounds came out as I was transforming it. Impressive figure.

HE IS COOLEST WITH HIS MISSELS.BUY HIM NOW AT TOYSRUS.HE'S A TRIPLE CHANGER BUT THAT MAKES HIM THE BEST.SO GOOD BYE FOR RIGHT NOW.

this toy might be cool,but every I transform him one of his feet fall off or I get my thumb gets crushed.
