If he was meant to look like the zombified remains of an actual scorpion, I'd say they missed the mark... but he's not. He's the zombified remains of a humanoid dude, like most of the other skull villains, slapped together with a bunch of junk Kulta had laying around in a twisted shape that's kinda sorta like a scorpion but not really. He's all right, but it's really the backstory that saves him for me and makes him stand out.
Well, if you think about it, scorpions don't have any bones that can be fossilized (if the bones are that old). Also scorpions aren't that big. So what you said could be true. That would also explain Slicer having four arms.
Well, Bionicle has rarely ever played by Earth rules. There could have been giant scorpion creatures with skeletal structures on ancient Okoto. Who knows?
+RolloutReviews That could be true, giant boney scorpions. *shudder* Although I quite like Nickon's idea of the Skellies being combinations of parts. I think the scorpio's legs look like ribs. (Also, you replied! :D)
I feel you on that rubber band thing. I got lucky and found a brand new boggarak 7 or 8 years after its official release at a garage sale and got the rubber bands and everything, it was great. My old Oohnorak desperately needed a rubber band and thanks to Lego's past generosity, i got one. But now I think they're kinda cutting corners.
I've never had a lego set with missing parts, but I did have one with excess parts. I bought the hahli mahri set when they came out, and the set I bought came with three wings. It was very strange, but hey, at least I have a replacement if I need it.
I think I see a fairly easy way to give the legs some articulation. Put the unattached ball joints (like on the pistons for old Titans) at the end of the technic mountings for the legs, then a connector piece holding the "leg." Then at least they'd be articulated at the "shoulder." I think.
10:10 i actually really like the G1 hands, theywere allowing more posing abilities, especially when uset that singulat axel-holder, and also they wre alowwing to make long handel for weapons, and set the hand on evry posible position alog this handle, withot using multiple part to reasemble it, i would really like the fist-hands to have such ability.
Regarding the deal with lego and arachnids, I believe the reason for 4-6 legs is due to size limitations and problems with an excessive amount of non-articulate "joints".
I have gotten a set missing parts! Not like duplicated bags or anything, A WHOLE MISSING BAG! this was during my build of the United States capitol building.
actually! i did have a set without all the pieces once, when i finally got umarak the destroyer, he didn't have his manipulated mask of control! it got sorted out thankfully and i got a new umarak, i think someone actually took the mask from the first one i got and returned it to the store where i got it, pretty crazy
1. I am the exact same way about bushings and things 2. Missing parts happen, but rarely. Most of the time you can call lego and say "hey my set was missing [x] part or [x] bag" and they'll ship it to you for free (although if it's over a certain number of parts they'll ask for a proof of purchase). The only time this isn't the case is parts with licensed parts or prints. Those you need to pay to have replaced.
Scorpions have 8 walking legs like all arachnids. The pincers are modifications of the 5 pair of legs, also present in spiders, the pedipalps (In spiders they are used for grasping food and by males for mating, Those are the large club-like appendages around a tarantula's mouth). They also have a 6th pair of appendages in the form of the chelicerae, which become a spider's fangs. Trust me, I know spiders, I'm a severe arachnophobe who always believed in the principle of "Know they Enemy".
Although I think the 2015 storyline is cool, i can't really get ahold of what's going on in it. The animations kind of confuse me more, so I've just decided to create my own. I haven't fit together all the plot points, mainly because I don't have all the characters yet. But when I get at least wave 1, I'll probably post a video on my channel for my interpretation of the Bionicle canon. I've done this with other things too, like Game Grumps, Transformers, and IXRolloutIX's Alpha and Beta. I still think those things are awesome.
Rollout, what do you think of the 2016 set names, any thoughts? I'm personally excited for all the sets, Like the hunter, all the revamped Toa, RAHI, and the Kopaka and 'insert name here' double pack
I like 'em. I think specializing Kopaka from the rest is an interesting choice. I also appreciate that all of the new characters have names right out of the gate. Can't wait to see pictures of the upgraded Toa.
Here's what pisses me off, alot of people LOVED the Rahi from 2001, and the were not acurrate AT ALL! For example the Tarakava were supposed to be lizards. Did they look like lizards? F#@K NO! They looked like retarded boxers who lost their legs then got wheels instead wearing lizard masks. But as soon as one scorpion doesn't have a stinger tale, everyone goes crazy. P.s. I don't mean to offend anyone, so if you feel like i was being mean towards you, sorry.
ahaha........ You weren`t even born when the sets come to sell.The complexity on building that I told you before, can indeed be found on the Rahi sets, not in Bionicle G2 sets. Thats a fact.All the rahi haves more pieces than the sets of Generation 2.By the way, I build the Tarakava, and they are awesome. Problaby you dont have those, and problaby never will.

I'm not sure it actually says that anywhere, though. Good head-canon, regardless. It would make sense.

***** Actually, if you look on SS's character bio, you'll see it states that they were made from Kulta's dark power.

5:10 yeah i remember that funny gray brick desinged only for holding the rubber band, still have plenty of them :)

Without the armor and head, it reminds me a lot of a Face Hugger from Alien.
I really enjoy these next year can you do this?
I've never had a lego set with missing parts, but I did have one with excess parts. I bought the hahli mahri set when they came out, and the set I bought came with three wings. It was very strange, but hey, at least I have a replacement if I need it.
I would love it just to win a trip to the Lego headquarters and ask SO many questions on some of their 'interesting' decisions.
I think I see a fairly easy way to give the legs some articulation. Put the unattached ball joints (like on the pistons for old Titans) at the end of the technic mountings for the legs, then a connector piece holding the "leg." Then at least they'd be articulated at the "shoulder." I think.
0:25 lol fantastic description!
10:10 i actually really like the G1 hands, theywere allowing more posing abilities, especially when uset that singulat axel-holder, and also they wre alowwing to make long handel for weapons, and set the hand on evry posible position alog this handle, withot using multiple part to reasemble it, i would really like the fist-hands to have such ability.
I also have built Lord of spiders, if you're thinking of buying it, he's right that technic section was a nightmare!
I got a star wars clone wars set and it had a chrome darth vader and I always get missing pieces

11:12 i once got a instruction manual where the pages were completely out of order
I got the Skull Scorpio for Christmas and I have modified him so the legs are mobile.
ive had a set missing lots of parts
I had a Lego set with Kai with a snake body and double stickers
My cousin was missing a part for a Lego set and because they have really good customer service he got a minifig keychain with the part he was missing
My Kopaka 2015 set came without stickers, but I didn't want them anyways so it wasn't too bad.
for me I thought that my set did not have them to but they were on the box stuck on the other side of the box I did not open ,but found them😮
The set already sucks.
This line in every single way sucks at their maximum!
Because I enjoy trolling in these.Do you actually like this?Are you another twelve year old, that is pleased with this garbage?
Is that sarcasm, or are you saying it seriously?
If so, why?

Toxic Atom licensed parts?
Dani darth vader helmets i think
2:20 well scorpions have only 6 legs, their 4th pair of limbs evolved into pincers, so this time LEGO didn't made a mistake.
That's just false. Do a Google Image search, man. Scorpions have eight legs completely separate from their pincers.
Scorpions have 8 walking legs like all arachnids.

"Gapage"
I like that word!
Who do you think is beter smash dragold or garburn ultimate
There are multiple Skull Scorpio's because they are the scouts of Kulta's army.
Why does everyone hate this set this is my favorite of the skull set
It looks cool
when you get the Bionicle 2016 sets you still should do a lets build videos ok.
Of course.
Although I think the 2015 storyline is cool, i can't really get ahold of what's going on in it. The animations kind of confuse me more, so I've just decided to create my own.

I don't really understand How you did it... With the game grumps o_0
I only got 5 legs, unfortunately...
I kinda like this set though!
10:35 was my favorite moment
Rollout, what do you think of the 2016 set names, any thoughts? I'm personally excited for all the sets, Like the hunter, all the revamped Toa, RAHI, and the Kopaka and 'insert name here' double pack
*Kopaka and Melum Unity
I like 'em. I think specializing Kopaka from the rest is an interesting choice. I also appreciate that all of the new characters have names right out of the gate. Can't wait to see pictures of the upgraded Toa.
Same, but I wonder how the Toa can be improved, because they are already really good.
***** Can someone link me to the news for the 2016 sets?
+Vanguardmetrics search thethreevirtues on youtube they have 2 videos about it on the channel
One of my Lego sets was missing a piece
Don't you think that Skull Scorpio supposed to be like the G2 of the Nui-Jaga from G1?
Roland Setsuya It certainly does feel like that.
Do a batlle accel dracyan v.s force dragen
apparently rollout reviews knows phobias
The 2 reasons to buy skull Scorpio.
1. The parts.
2. The combo model
Jk. I don't know why people don't like skull Scorpio.
The Reason behind people who buy Skull Scorpio :
Using the entire piecies for MOC creation
I like this villain plus the corrupt pohatu mask wouldn't you think that the villain would put the mask on
Take the legs from Lord of Skull Spiders and use them for Skull Scorpio. Ta da!
The 2015 Onua set is wrong. In other Media Onua is the tallest of the Toa
Thank you for saving me from buying this
You play Pokemon ixrolloutix?
-lets bring the camera down a little,MORE LIKE ALOT
I think the lord of skull spiders is a better six legged insect bionicle set in gen 2
Fried chicken used poker face against jokes but it failed
Cool
Maybe its just that they couldn't get enough space
you are lucky
it's skull scorpio😩
i half that toy!!!
well actually rollout scorpions only have 6 legs and 2 claws
#Skeletmans
Scorpio is meh to me. The only pros IMO are the infected mask, the function, and the combiner model.

Jacob Andersen To bad. You lost the golden years. Those years will never come again.
The tarakava were basilisk lizards, also know as the Jesus water walking lizard, the run along the water on their hind limbs like a tarakava
But I agree the rank weren't very accurate :P
Does anyone else point at the pieces that he needs and misses? Or is it just me being weird?
