I assigned Siege Shrute (basically Fracas) to TR Scourge when I got him. Once I get the Studio Series Scourge I'm going to reassign my de facto Fracas to that guy instead, and maybe pick up a couple of those Takara Sharkticon/Sweep sets if I can find them for cheap and turn my TR Scourge into SS Scourge's goon
Love your reviews, you're like the only one who shows how to transform the figures and then show how to transform them back. I use a lot of your vids for tutorials because these instructions don't be shit...lol. Keep up the good work.
Now there's another home run! Scourge may not be perfect, but he looks really amazing this time, blows all other previous versions! It would be hard to make something better, perhaps a Masterpiece version, but until that comes out, the best Scourge we ever gotten! Awesome review, Paul!
Scourge: No escape the Sweeps. TFG1TM Scourge: Remember we belong to him. He is awesome and his goatee mustache fit perfectly I always like on his face. Thanks for the video.
Personally I don't mind at all that they seem to be essentially "combining" Earthrise, Kingdom, and SS '86 WRT the Movie figs. I rather love that they do seem to have a few Siege ports on the SS figs like the WFC figs
To me it seems more like a "safe bet" in case Kingdom fails to deliver. After all BW always was the small brother of G1. With a combined effort of SS86 and Kingdom, you get a rather large amount of G1 figures.
@@dgray3771 Personally I want as many modern BW figs to share shelf space with my G1 figs as possible. It really seems like both lines have the exact same customer base, which makes inter-line compatibility a logical idea. Hell, didn't they make Cyberverse and Siege compatible?
@@Canoby Compatible in what sense? Due to elements having 5mm pegs and pegholes? That is a common thing with all transformers for decades. As far as it seems to be the case, these new BW figures have certain compatibility in that sense too. With the fossilizers taking the place of figures like Ironworks. Which is fine. But there doesn't need to be compatibility for me. The BW figures are good enough for their own spotlight. But I do realize there are plenty of collectors that only collect G1.
My favorite evil space soap bar. Honestly I think the only difference between him and the sweeps was his manicure? I'm not sure to be honest. I'd have to go rewatch.
Scourge is slightly darker blue and bigger than the Sweeps i think. Tbh idk exactly either how to tell the Sweeps apart from Scourge depending on the artist but i do know im getting 3 more to have the Sweeps. In rebirth the Sweeps weren't seen just Cyclonus and Scourge. However the Sweeps can mass duplicate like the Insecticons used to do so Scourge can have an army of Sweeps to be the Armada of Galvatron and Cyclonus
I grabbed Cyclonus and now I want his pink fingernailed comrade, but I always thought they were the same height, but then again I can barely remember since I'm 44. Lol!
Don’t know if you knew this or not Paul but the bio on the back of the box says he was Thundercracker. Didn’t know if you saw that. As usual good work.
Man Iam so glad I stuck with chug instead of masterpiece! I was considering masterpiece, but with some good stuff in the 30th anniversary, combiner wars, titans return, power of primes, siege , earthrise and kingdom Iam beyond happy! More characters and better on the wallet. They have been really knocking out of the park lately
I need 3 more Scourge figures to have as The Sweeps so i have Scourge and his Huntsmen the Sweeps to display with Cyclonus and the eventual kingdom Galvatron. But if i remember the Sweeps are slightly lighter blue and smaller than Scourge but they all look exactly alike as far as i can really see so either way wait for the repaints to become Sweeps or just buy 3 more Scourge figures and you get the Sweeps either way it's worth it as they're always together. The Sweeps can duplicate themselves into clones like the Insecticons so they're can be many of them to display with Scourge and Cyclonus til we get Galvatron. Nostalgia :)
optibotimus oh yea I did see that Nebula review it looked amazing and so was the review. I didn’t comment on it because I don’t really like the MCU I love marvel
I like this line of Scourge very nice details. But makes me confused a lil bit. Why is the other box the name tag as Sweep?. Does Scourge has other name?
Thundercracker! Thundercracker became Scourge! In every frame after they get tossed out of Astrotrain, Thundercracker is seen with Skarpnal and Kickback. Literally every frame. Same with Skywarp and Bombshell.
The argument isn't who became Scourge. Everyone knows Thundercracker became Scourge. The argument comes when people use an animation error to justify why they think bombshell became Cyclonus. Which makes literally no sense
@@optibotimus well rumors being what they are, I'd play it safe and buy 2 more just in case. you can always re-sell them after the rumor comes true (I,d buy them :) )
Great review, he looks nice, but i think i will stick with the Takara Legends Scourge. I think this is a good upgrade but not perfect with the back kibble. Plus i have a few of the Legends Scourges and Sharkticons with Sweep(s) heads, so i will just be happy with the stuff i got.
"Hey Cyclonus wouldn't be great if our gun's turned into little men?"

Just don't tell Galvatron you did it. Maybe pretend you found the guns at a school and that the Headmasters were drunk and woke up like it.
@@Canoby Dwight Schrute has entered the chat.🤓
MICHAEL!
I think we've reached a point where we have options as to who is the BEST representation of a character
Damn this dudes still runnin! Good job man. Used to watch your videos as a kid! Great to see you great work!
Welcome back
I love the consistency with the tic tac comparisons nothing is more frustrating than getting a comparison between 2 figs I don’t have lmao
Love your reviews, you're like the only one who shows how to transform the figures and then show how to transform them back. I use a lot of your vids for tutorials because these instructions don't be shit...lol. Keep up the good work.
I appreciate that! Glad i can help!

If you combine Earthrise with the ss 86 line its pretty much a whole mainline G1 cast/shelf
@@huntercox8835 kingdom Ultra Magnus better be in scale with the other figures humf
@@huntercox8835 i agree but idk how they would do it. Thats on some other third-party black magic stuff
Hot damn, no wonder a lot of the scourges were sold out. He’s really good
I’m so glad I at least acquired a hot rod
Got both. Hot Rod is smaller than Siege Astrotrain. I thought the thing was a deluxe.
@@leefrierson6472 That’s the point of Hot Rod. Once he acquires The Matrix, he doubles in size.
I had to get both of those from ebay. And surprisingly for decent prices.
Scourge and the chimney sweeps 🤣 I’ll see myself out.

Great review of SS86 Scourge! This figure is definitely the best mainline G1 Scourge that we have ever gotten.
Couldn't agree more!

I believe you are right. Scourge had longer nails and a deeper voice
@@werewolfantipaladin we will be getting sweeps this summer or fall
I grabbed Cyclonus and now I want his pink fingernailed comrade, but I always thought they were the same height, but then again I can barely remember since I'm 44. Lol!
I think you missed a step because I don’t remember but I think we have to flip the head gun around so the pointy part of the head is facing the back
Great review, what an amazing version of Scourge.
I bought him yesturday. I nearly bought Cyclonus but there wass only 1 Scourge so I figured he's the one to get and I always wanted him as a kid.
“Today we’re gonna be looking at the new Transformers Studio Series 86 Thundercracker”
I see what you did there...
It actually says on the back of the box that thundercracker got reformatted into scourge, in the little bio section!
Do you think you could put a picture from the movie next to the figure so we can get a feel for the animation accuracy
Wow he looks great.
Don’t know if you knew this or not Paul but the bio on the back of the box says he was Thundercracker. Didn’t know if you saw that. As usual good work.
Do you think takara will make a MP of him now?
I'd hope they'd do a lot more of the movie or later seasons. They've given us Rodimus, Hit Rod, Magnus and Arcee
I just got mine from Amazon today- literally a little while ago. I really like him.
Man Iam so glad I stuck with chug instead of masterpiece!

The extra vehicle bits hanging from the wings should have folded up in the legs somehow.

@Rodimus Supremenice. hopefully they are all at least deluxe or close in scale to Scourge and Cyclonus and in a 3 pack
So this was the figure after Elita-1 for some reason I thought it was soundwave
He's coming. The timing got adjusted because I got Nebula
optibotimus oh yea I did see that Nebula review it looked amazing and so was the review. I didn’t comment on it because I don’t really like the MCU I love marvel
So excited waiting on mines now great Review
Dude's got facial hair and a manacure!
G1 is amazing Michael bay movies pooo
I got him today! Great timing, hahahaha. I like this figure and I can't wait to get Cyclonus.
I like this line of Scourge very nice details. But makes me confused a lil bit. Why is the other box the name tag as Sweep?. Does Scourge has other name?
Throughly enjoying these SS 86 Voyagers!
Cyclonus is bombshell......let the haters hate :)
Skywarp=Cyclonus, Scourge=Thundercracker, Bombshell=Sweep 1, Kickback=Sweep 2, Shrapnel=Sweep 3
That makes literally no sense. There is no possible reasons as to why it was make sense that Bombshell became Cyclonus
Excellent copies and a good stand from G1!
What does the story of TF G1 say, where did CYCLONUS №2 go?
Aw Scourge the Tracker.....can you help me find my keys. I misplaced them and I can't find them.😅
🤣🤣🤣
@@optibotimus It wasn't that funny.😄
I THOUGHT IT WAS :P
I love these 86 studio figures but I havent seen them in any of the 3 walmarts I go in.
Patience....
Thundercracker! Thundercracker became Scourge! In every frame after they get tossed out of Astrotrain, Thundercracker is seen with Skarpnal and Kickback. Literally every frame. Same with Skywarp and Bombshell.
Yeah it says it on the box lol
The argument isn't who became Scourge. Everyone knows Thundercracker became Scourge. The argument comes when people use an animation error to justify why they think bombshell became Cyclonus. Which makes literally no sense
I remember using his blast effect in Saints Row 3 😁
Funny that Cyclonus came from the WFC: Kingdom line and Scourge from the Studio Series '86 line. Overall, great figures!
I honestly think Cyclonus was originally part of the studio series, but they moved him to Kingdom to help fill the slots
instant triple buy onsight!!!
I keep seeing Scourge figures in my area and keep wanting to buy like 2 more, but the rumor sweeps keeps me from doing it.
@@optibotimus well rumors being what they are, I'd play it safe and buy 2 more just in case. you can always re-sell them after the rumor comes true (I,d buy them :) )
@@optibotimus mine is on the way!!!
That Titans Scourge was terrible I thought. The Generations one was great for it's time but the Titans is one of the few I passed on.
This looks rlly cool I’m gonna have to get him
I don't get why people think Bombshell became Cyclonus. That makes literally no sense
0:33
salty fans: THAT'S NOT THUNDERCRACKER
I miss the insecticons
Keep the reviews comming still looking for mp 44 optimus prime
I'm not getting that unfortunately
@@optibotimus understand
Its skywarp not bombshell haha. Its true tho
the best video ever
IM JUST GETTING THE NOTI😤😤
That's because the video just went live to the public
@@optibotimus ohhh thank you🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗❤️
That's probably it
why did i just get notified about this??
Because it just went live to the public
Thanks for giving me the term "G-Whiner"
Yep lol
I guess your a coke coca fan? So im i!
Cool.
Yay
Great review, he looks nice, but i think i will stick with the Takara Legends Scourge. I think this is a good upgrade but not perfect with the back kibble. Plus i have a few of the Legends Scourges and Sharkticons with Sweep(s) heads, so i will just be happy with the stuff i got.
Why do you care so much about blast effects? Toys should allow imagination.
