Fun Fact: the size of a scorpion's claws tells you how "safe" they are. If they have large claws, they'll often use _them_ over their venom when hunting or defending themselves. That's why people keep larger ones like emperors as pets, less venomous.
Emgo, I have to say you are my go-to TF reviewer on UA-cam these days. I know that if I'm stuck with an issue Transforming a figure, and for getting a good idea of if the toy is worth my time and money, you are 100% the review I go to for just pure review and info.
Emgo is one of the best for Transformers reviews but his tend to be more entertaining due to mascot and the skirts at the end, those always bring a smile to my face or a few laughs, truly a all-rounder through reviews done with heart 💖 and leaves one with a positive feelings due to the comedy at the end of the videos!!
I would love some Transmetals too. I used to have several of them. Depthcharge, Rattrap, Cheetor, Megatron, (my favorite) Cheetor Transmetal 2, Dinobot Transmetal 2. Those were the only show characters I had, but I had a few others as well, like the skunk and bat and ram figures (whose names escape me right now). Now I'm just left with Transmetal Tarantulas, which I bought only within the last few years, but I still love the 'spidey-cycle'. The coolest non-show Fuzor they could make a figure of would be Torca in my opinion.
What’s wild is after Season 2, most characters were nearly screen accurate. Yeah, Rattrap’s body didn’t fully rotate, but Silverbolt and Quickstrike might just need some extra articulation and that’d be about it.
That was quite the bummer about Rattrap's backpack, and his lack of ranged weapon, but his roadie mode was still awesome. Yup, the figures were quite screen-accurate. When I look at my Transmetal Tarantulas, and then at the cartoon model, you realize he really did have such a big backpack!
Its amazing Megatron lasted so long against the Maximals especially after losing Dinobot to treachery. His remaining cohorts were mostly smaller, treacherous, and often incompetent.
Little Mitchell Scorponok always got picked on by the other kids in school, until the one day his big brother Rufus stepped in to teach the dirty punks a lesson.
I like that he's a stocky little runt. BW Scorpinok was the Igor to Megatron's Evil Genius, kept around for his unflagging loyalty and cruelty towards Megatron's enemies. Also the fact he was expendable and would still be insanely loyal despite the fact.
Leg extensions upgrade kits just showed up on ebay btw, imo makes this guy look so much better proportioned. You sacrifice the leg transformation but lets be honest it wasnt great to begin with lol
I saw theres 3rd party leg extenders on ebay that make him taller and it looks great. I also saw that someone is making a cartoon accurate Scorpion head for the beast mode. With those two add ons, this Short Scorponok will look way better!
I’m happy to see a more so accurate version of the character even though when I was a little kid I thought he was a lot taller. I’m definitely excited for the rumored Terrorsaur figure!
Great video as always.After seeing your video on scorponok I will have to pick him up to go along with my old version scorponok.Keep up the great 👍 work I always find them very fun and entertaining to watch.Till all are one
Can't wait to see your Tracks and Wingfinger reviews. I'm having trouble figuring out the legs on Tracks, and I hope to see you do the fossilized combiner.
I own this guy now myself, and I think my ONLY complaint about the figure, is how small he is when compared to other Predacons. In the OG show he was quite a bit taller than other characters, so it irks me a little at how even Blackarachnia is taller than he is. But I digress, great review as always~!
My buddy just sent me this guy. At dirst I was like, eh.. thanks, but he’s growing on me. Thank you for the video because I didn’t know what to do with his robot legs and head. You are my go-to when the directions fail me.. which is every time!
Of course now I can't get the idea of Scorponok and Scorponok staring in "Twins" Big Scorp: : "I'm you twin brother." Little Scorp: "Of course you are. It's like I'm looking in a mirror."
As a Texan, all i can say is...WHY AM I STILL SEEING BLACKARACHNIAS AND CHEETORS STILL IN MY WALMARTS AND TARGETS? (Seriously though, the distribution for WFC has been piss poor in North Texas, can't find anything and blackarachnias have been shelfwarming for MONTHS.)
@@awesomedude007x awww, poor person, he’s got Kingdom, not like the rest of the world, where i live we have Grapples and Ironworks everywhere, and i can still see some Titans Return Blasters and Power Of The Primes Rodimus
Beast wars and even beast machines has always been my jam but surprisingly I've only picked up dinobot and rattrap! I never thought Hasbro would ever be redoing the beast wars characters after generations rhinox rattrap and whaspinator!
Just recently got Scorponok and really like the figure. I also enjoyed this review. I do have a question please. I am vision impaired so with Transformations I sometimes struggle to learn exactly how certain things are done. For Scorponok in Beast mode Is there a tab for the leg that goes into the open chest area? Also does the front of the foot that goes into the tail tab in? I can get the heal through the whole in the tail but can't work out where the front part of the foot goes.
When hasbro said deluxe class Beast wars scorpinok and I heard about the cyber bee I thought the cyberbee had opening legs so that way I could clip onto Primals chest
There's some really good stuff here and as someone that grew up with Beast Wars as my G1, that had the original figure, I wanna like the guy but the bot mode just kills it for me. He is looks so stubby and just...off, you gotta wonder how someone looked at that and said "yep, that's it, that's the final design".
Could you do us a favor and check if theres any way for the Scout-Bee to plug on to Primals Chest? Long shot, but would be a neat callback to one of my favorite episodes.
That was a fun end scene. Well Mike doesn't like Megatron for not being a insect. Well, for now that going to be it for Beast Wars character until Tigertron and the New Waspinator, bet your excited for our favorite wasp.
I have done the unthinkable: I finally managed to buy a new Transformer before Emgo's review of it came out! XD Seriously, this guy went up faster for "In Stock" on BBTS faster than I thought he would! Also, he "I have a bee" part got me good. XD
I know this isn't supposed to be from the beast wars cartoon, but hopefully we can get thigh extension for this guy, from what I recall he was a hair shorter than blackarachnia. Edit: scorponok's head came up to Megatron collar in this image. tfwiki.net/mediawiki/images2/thumb/8/84/OtherVoices1_Scorponok_and_Megatron_pose.jpg/250px-OtherVoices1_Scorponok_and_Megatron_pose.jpg
This may be just me being funny and dumb in my head but the two things I always imagine Emgo saying during the reviews are when he first introduces the figure, for him to say “this is hasbro’s take on…” because then it’s just their take on the character they own. And also I always imagine when he says just over or under 90 degrees, idk why but I imagine him guesstimating the number like “91 degrees” but in his classic Emgo voice. Just funny extra things I say in my head. :)
His legs are pretty stumpy in my opinion, which kinda bugs me. Luckily someone’s made an upgrade kit to give him a bit more height that I intend to get
It would be a must have for me but I can't help but see his proportions are off...The thighs are too short, and it makes it seem like they put 2 different robot halves together.
I have to unfortunately say that his legs are way too short in robot mode. He would have looked better as a voyager class with just a little more height to him, but his beast mode looks great.

Didn’t know that thanks!
Huh..........that's actually pretty cool and useful thanks
I have a question, when you say " *less venomous* " do you mean *less venom* or *less dangerous venom*
@@ruiner3630 most likely the latter
Which is fitting for Scorponok, given how ineffectual he was...
Emgo, I have to say you are my go-to TF reviewer on UA-cam these days. I know that if I'm stuck with an issue Transforming a figure, and for getting a good idea of if the toy is worth my time and money, you are 100% the review I go to for just pure review and info.

True I’m the same
Same here, and the skits are just getting better.

Yeah, when I get a new Transformer, I throw the instructions away immediately. Without looking at all. I just go straight to the channel.
Emgo: They're like twins!
Me: Yep, just like Arnold and Danny.
that is one good classic movie... literally the title is TWINS back in 1988
*I hope that they do the Fuzors in this line (Silverbolt, Quickstrike, etc.)?*
Ohh I would love a quick strike!!!
I would love some Transmetals too. I used to have several of them. Depthcharge, Rattrap, Cheetor, Megatron, (my favorite) Cheetor Transmetal 2, Dinobot Transmetal 2.

When emgo did the comparisons i thought he'd break out one of his other scorpinoks just for kicks lol
Edit :13:02 annnd im clairvoyant lol.
Megatron: I get more use out of Waspinator, and he's basically useless, yeeeeessssss.
The yes needs another y
Its amazing Megatron lasted so long against the Maximals especially after losing Dinobot to treachery. His remaining cohorts were mostly smaller, treacherous, and often incompetent.
Little Mitchell Scorponok always got picked on by the other kids in school, until the one day his big brother Rufus stepped in to teach the dirty punks a lesson.

Sound wave of beast mode returns better than ever
Scorponok, Terrorize!!
Raaaaaaaarrrr!~
(I don't know how to express his scream in my comment. But still, one of the greatest Beast Wars character.)
Honestly one of the best Kingdom figures in my opinion.
13:09 ....and now I want to hear Danny DeVito voice BW Scorpinok.
Its always sunny on cyberton
That would be hilarious.
Given the gimmick of the Siege packaging, I almost wish they had made Scorponok blacklight active
That would be SUPER meta. Wish Hasbro would hire more people like you.
It's just packaging
Leg extensions upgrade kits just showed up on ebay btw, imo makes this guy look so much better proportioned. You sacrifice the leg transformation but lets be honest it wasnt great to begin with lol
I could see another crossover with Mortal Kombat, meaning a gold and black repaint of Scorponok with a harpoon instead of the bee.
I saw theres 3rd party leg extenders on ebay that make him taller and it looks great. I also saw that someone is making a cartoon accurate Scorpion head for the beast mode. With those two add ons, this Short Scorponok will look way better!
Nice!
I’m happy to see a more so accurate version of the character even though when I was a little kid I thought he was a lot taller.
I’m definitely excited for the rumored Terrorsaur figure!
Glad to see that someone's waiting for the figures to come out legitimately. Good on ya.
putting his tail right up against his back like that also improves his balance
Great video as always.After seeing your video on scorponok I will have to pick him up to go along with my old version scorponok.Keep up the great 👍 work I always find them very fun and entertaining to watch.Till all are one
I love all of your end-of-review skits, but this one was especially good. LOL
CHEETOR: The Pred’s Base?! What is this?!
SCORPONOK: It’s called, TREACHERY!!!
STARSCREAM: (shoots him)
SCORPONOCK: (grunts)
BLACKARACHNIA: (shoots him flying)
SCORPONOCK: AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH………….. OOOOWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sweet just got mines in today ! Awesome review as always emgo316
"They're like Twins!"
Yeah... like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny Devito's "Twins". Lmao
5:30 You spin me right round baby round round.
I found Rhinox today, so it looks like I'll be seeing this guy pretty soon.
Where'd you find him? I'm missing everyone from the line besides primal.
@@UndeadAhead jesus where do you live.
@@Lazulii33 I havent been out for like 2 months. I found Optimus primal then, there was Dino bot, but I didn't have enough money.
@@UndeadAhead A small toy store in British Columbia. The small places seem to be getting new stuff faster than the big box stores.
@@AlexSeverinski oh, not near collumbia
Floppy legs and his claws fall off at ease. And I bought two. Each from a different place. Now his claws are glued open.
Can't wait to see your Tracks and Wingfinger reviews. I'm having trouble figuring out the legs on Tracks, and I hope to see you do the fossilized combiner.
I own this guy now myself, and I think my ONLY complaint about the figure, is how small he is when compared to other Predacons.

So glad there's a upgrade kit for the legs, it actually makes this a balanced figure in robot mode.
Hopefully emgo will do the upgrade kit video.
the way scorponok just stares at you after the spin is terrifying
Whenever Emgo get the other predacons, I want to see him reenact the group transformation scene in beast wars
My buddy just sent me this guy. At dirst I was like, eh.. thanks, but he’s growing on me. Thank you for the video because I didn’t know what to do with his robot legs and head. You are my go-to when the directions fail me.. which is every time!
We’re missing waspinator and terrorsaur and we have the original team
Actually Wazzzzpinator will have a deluxe class toy in Kingdom toy line.
And tarantulas and if u count inferno
14:55 he said the thing!
Of course now I can't get the idea of Scorponok and Scorponok staring in "Twins"
Big Scorp: : "I'm you twin brother."
Little Scorp: "Of course you are. It's like I'm looking in a mirror."
You know I doubt it will happen but I'd love if they'd do transmetal forms
"Scorponok, TERRORIZE!!!"

Finally, I've been waiting for a redone scorponok for years ...... I will have ... thanks emgo and another great vid
As a Texan, all I can say is… NOPE

12:57 can someone help me I can’t tell which is which
Warning! Dangerous!
Sting Scorpion!
Stung with fear by the power claws.
5:33 scorpinox: you'll pay for that emgo
Now I need Tarantulus.
We all need Tarantulas
YES
Wont get blackarachnia without him
And terrorsaur and inferno
@@seanoleary5326
I liked Quickstrike more
Beast wars and even beast machines has always been my jam but surprisingly I've only picked up dinobot and rattrap! I never thought Hasbro would ever be redoing the beast wars characters after generations rhinox rattrap and whaspinator!
On my copy of Scorponok I accidentally popped the head's ball-joint into a slightly different position, and now his head has the full range of motion.
Just recently got Scorponok and really like the figure. I also enjoyed this review. I do have a question please. I am vision impaired so with Transformations I sometimes struggle to learn exactly how certain things are done.

I can get the heal through the whole in the tail but can't work out where the front part of the foot goes.
I found out that their doing a kingdom waspinator
And a tigatron
Oh I forgot about that
are we gonna get Terrorsaur and Tarantulas to complete the first episode Predacons?
When hasbro said deluxe class Beast wars scorpinok and I heard about the cyber bee I thought the cyberbee had opening legs so that way I could clip onto Primals chest
So all these comments and no one says anything about the robot leg making the scorpion rock back and forth in beast mode?
Not to shabby:emgo 2021
Mine will be here Thursday or Friday
Such a good outro scene 😂😂
That was a terrorizing last pun.
There's some really good stuff here and as someone that grew up with Beast Wars as my G1, that had the original figure, I wanna like the guy but the bot mode just kills it for me. He is looks so stubby and just...off, you gotta wonder how someone looked at that and said "yep, that's it, that's the final design".
Michael Bee. Famous Predacon director.
There’s already a company on eBay selling thigh ‘extenders’ for this guy to improve his squatness
Looks good, great review!
Could you do us a favor and check if theres any way for the Scout-Bee to plug on to Primals Chest?
Long shot, but would be a neat callback to one of my favorite episodes.
That was a fun end scene. Well Mike doesn't like Megatron for not being a insect. Well, for now that going to be it for Beast Wars character until Tigertron and the New Waspinator, bet your excited for our favorite wasp.
Micheal not mike, he is very touchy on his name
in bigbadtoystore where it says substandard standard and colleter what does that mean
10:04 You only buy these toys for the Blooshing.
Scorponok named his little bee guy Michael? LOL, thats my name to
All of my transformers are coming in the mail
"He's a visible-header! Mangle!"
Hi Emgo great review like always
This is bloosh compatible yeesssss!!!
What does mascot have against insects and critters
Ah the bee's name is Michael , like Michael B Jordan I get it
I have a special cyberbee just for Optimus primal, ENJOY!
What!? No big meaty claws reference???
can his fly be attached to primal's chest plate?
I have done the unthinkable: I finally managed to buy a new Transformer before Emgo's review of it came out! XD Seriously, this guy went up faster for "In Stock" on BBTS faster than I thought he would!

His name is Michael. Michael Bee.
I'm just waiting for the reviews on the new studio series grindor, bumblebee, jolt and sideswipe.
So am I
@@emgo316 by the way the upgrade kit you were talking about when you reviewed the Ratchet and Ironhide was for the studio series DoTM Megatron.
No, it was for these figures
@@emgo316 oh ok.
I was so disappointed you didn't compare him to Earthrise Scorponok, until you actually did.
I know this isn't supposed to be from the beast wars cartoon, but hopefully we can get thigh extension for this guy, from what I recall he was a hair shorter than blackarachnia.

How loose is it supposed to be?
I really wish he had the hunched neck
i forgot to say on the jti the sticker/card i got the autobot ark also i now have two scorpions
Comparing Kingdom Scorponok with Earthrise Scorponok; like twins... Danny deVito and Arnold Schwarzenegger Twins.
Should be an easy Quickstrike
How's that? Quickstrike: Scorpion claws for feet and the Scorpion tail & legs were his arms.
From director Michael Bee...
Great figure , but I'd like to see a tarantulus
His legs are pretty stumpy in my opinion, which kinda bugs me. Luckily someone’s made an upgrade kit to give him a bit more height that I intend to get
Should compare with TE Scorponok
don't have that one. sorry.
Waiting for Silverbolt and Tigatron
It would be a must have for me but I can't help but see his proportions are off...The thighs are too short, and it makes it seem like they put 2 different robot halves together.
Don't give me orders
*IM SECOND IN COMMAND*
You will review the transform element version?
He won't, he doesn't get legends scale stuff
I have to unfortunately say that his legs are way too short in robot mode.
He would have looked better as a voyager class with just a little more height to him, but his beast mode looks great.
It's too bad there wasn't a size comparison to the Earthrise Scorponok
Quick ⚠️: please be careful when raising his head from his chest cavity. Those gold spikes on his chin break off easily if you aren't careful.
12:54 What I came for.
With those hefty claws and that broad chest, I bet Scroponok could rise
