This has to be one of if not my favorite transformers design ever I love this guy whenever I was watching the show all I wanted to do was help him.... He desperately needs a masterpiece figure
we r talking about fucking transformers its made up so technically anything can happen its like seeing a dragon on tv oh they cant fly because they r too big or they arent real its all fictional shit so aero dynamics dont fucking matter cant believe that u ppl are arguing over dumb shit ....by the way that plane flying mode looks bad ass
Good video. to explain the jet mode (and by this logic ALL weird flying modes), it isn't aerodynamic because it is instead astrodynamic. There is no air or water resistance in space, so aerodynamicness is only relevant while escaping the atmosphere
I honestly didn't see the point of flying modes in Energon, since in that show the transformers with land-based alt modes can also fly, which kinda defeats the purpose of flight modes.
I had this toy as a kid and I loved it so much I literally played with it till it broke and even after that I kept the broken arm and would use it for my other toys like any piece that would break off that I couldn't glue back on it has now become a weapon or accessory for a different toy I loved that thing when I was a kid
this mold was used for Cybertron Dark Scorponok with Animatron Planet Key, Botcon Double Punch and G1 Scorponok with Headmaster Olin Zarak for BotCon 2014
my only possing issues are in the hips. The arms for what the figure is make sence to me and thats why the back end claws reach out. This is a great figure who can be fanmoded to no end. Great review
I agree Scorponok looks menacing just standing there. I also wish he never died in the show- he was a good guy in truth. Sadly my Scorponok's arms broke he's still usable but his arms keep falling off. when I first got him at a flee market I thought he was Megatron. I also didn't know he had heals and a scorpion mode until I watched a review of him- even how I had the jet-mode was wrong! lol
Scorponok's "arm bits" are just the head, one of the only two sections of an arachnid's body, which are the head and abdomen, the tail counts as part of the abdomen. Yeah Science!
It does look like his a triple changer seeing as how triple changers compensate for an entire a whole normal jet or whatever the hell the other vehicle mode he uses parts from both to make two different vehicles
This is miles better than the one from '07 Transformers Scorponok,if Michael wanted to put him there,make so he transforms into a robot,not keep him into a dumb scorpion mode
The Energon Scorponok look like a combiner but isn't. The arms seem like it is a pair of identical robots and form the arms and the legs are also identical robots that form the legs but isn't and the torso is like the one robot that is the center piece of the combiner robot but it isn't. It is what it isn't but Energon Scorponok, nonetheless.
I do find it annoying that the engines are backwards though. Also, you have to be very careful ful when messing with those pieces that the front of the scorpion mode folds in on. I know this because mine broke one day when I was trying to move it around.
balt isn't it obvious how he flew he has super powerful tiny engines and more tiny and he would blow up pluis a bettwe question is how does tidal wave float
They should have killed the name "Hyper mode" and just called it "Hyper Offense" or "Power attack" just because it isn't really a "mode". That and it works better.
He never turned into a crane or tank well... Technically the construction thing could count but it's supposed to (obviously) represent a scorpion and he did turn into a jet in this toy
"How you get Tank from a jet, Blitzwing wonders everyday." Me : *Laughing.*
Ikr?!

hopefully fans hobby will make one
@@rick-ry3kj fuck I hope
I think Legacy needs a Titan Class Energon Scorponok with just the Excavation mode
The jet mode looks like it has the aerodynamic ability of a fridge on roller skates. AKA none.
***** I'm not completely sure about it, but I do't think you know what "aerodynamic ability" is, also, I posted that comment 7 months ago
dude it's a brick it can't fly , if you think it'll fly you don't know what aerodynamic ability is.

That's what I said
Kind of
This was my favorite Transformer I owned. I threw away the instructions so I could never figure out how to do the jet mode lol.
I really want a Legacy Version of this Guy
I love his figure and he was my fav from Energon.
I instantly remembered having this as a kid as soon as I saw the thumbnail.
He actually uses the flying mode quite a lot in the show
Good video.
to explain the jet mode (and by this logic ALL weird flying modes), it isn't aerodynamic because it is instead astrodynamic. There is no air or water resistance in space, so aerodynamicness is only relevant while escaping the atmosphere
I didn’t need this explanation for Scorponok, but thank you for justifying Apeface.
I think the jet mode looks pretty cool it might not look that very aerodynamic but its cool looking
Energon cartoon was awesome! David Kaye was my favorite voice of megatron
I always imagined that THIS is G-1 Scorpinok's cybertronian form before he became a headmaster with Zarak.
I honestly didn't see the point of flying modes in Energon, since in that show the transformers with land-based alt modes can also fly, which kinda defeats the purpose of flight modes.
I agree
Its a show about aline mechanical beings who take the form of are vehicles and transforms to robots domt think to much of the logic.
Aliens* dont*
+em0panda1 i completely agree XD
*looks*
Honestly, I did not expect to be so impressed by this figure. If Fan's Hobby remade this, I'd buy it in an instant.
I had this as a kid and now I want it again because it's just as cool as I remember it being.
Jet mode is IN THE SHOW. And it's Awesome!!! (I mean this figure pulls it off better than some of the Blitzwings did! XD)
Hahaha yes
For sure, the face sculpt is awesome!
this is one of my all time favorite vehicle modes as well
Iv'e had this set for years and i still love it!
The curling fist pose is shown the way it did in the Super Link ending, and shows where the toy suffered.
Is it just me or does the tail/the front of the jet look like a snake head
Yeah it does
Just you
Not just u
Ya it really does look like a snake head
Say what you will about the show, but the toys from Energon were amazing
Amen
Thanks for this, I have the Dark Scorponok from Cybertron I think, it's pretty cool
I’ve always liked that mold more, but that just might be me!

Gallifreyan Warrior the Cybertron one is the version i have
Energon scorponok was also in bot on as pirate scorponok. It’s colors are the g1 colors and he’s also a headmaster.
This mf went hard as a kid. I have this in a toybox upstairs somewhere in my childhood home
I've had this guy for years and he's still fine
my only possing issues are in the hips. The arms for what the figure is make sence to me and thats why the back end claws reach out. This is a great figure who can be fanmoded to no end. Great review

Yeah Science!
yo lo tengo... es fabuloso. y el material es de muy buena calidad
Scorponok's Vehicle Mode (Scorpion-type Excavation Tank and Cybertronian Jet) is absolutely Unique and cool
I can’t unsee that Scorponok looks like a truck with legs
my fav transformer
I had so much fun with that toy as kid.
Awesome review man thanks alot. Now I have to go and find one of these. I hear my piggy bank screaming already.
Most of the transformers in G1 could fly, and Megatron could shrink in size.
Great review bro
It does look like his a triple changer seeing as how triple changers compensate for an entire a whole normal jet or whatever the hell the other vehicle mode he uses parts from both to make two different vehicles
i still have this one minus one of his energon pipes that are on him it just vanished one days and was never found again.
nice review. any chance of getting a beast wars and G1 scorponok review to got with it? XD
Scorponok was a bad ass character in the show so it would only be fitting if he had a bad ass toy to go with
He would flip if he found out they did this for Kingdom
The designers didn't come up with that, it was in the show.
An awesome Character that had a tragic end
Ah yes, one of my many grail figures
Toei says How the heck are you gonna get a jet out of a tank Well Tawara Touta wonders that every day
It's suffering a plastic gold syndrome
RFchris15 yes.... I agree
In space, all you need is thrust.
I think that His jet mode is both stupid and awesome at the same time XD
I used to have it :( back in 07
This is miles better than the one from '07 Transformers Scorponok,if Michael wanted to put him there,make so he transforms into a robot,not keep him into a dumb scorpion mode
0:32 Super Sentai says hello : P

If yo keep his shoulder pads in the position for the jet mode then you can use his joints for a decent shoulder.
Was going to comment the same thing. It kinda streamlines the body's shape better.
you can fold the shoulder into the side of the body for more poseablity
I do find it annoying that the engines are backwards though. Also, you have to be very careful ful when messing with those pieces that the front of the scorpion mode folds in on. I know this because mine broke one day when I was trying to move it around.
balt how has your Scorponok held up over the years with gold plastic syndrome? Are you still okay transforming him and such? THX! !
I was gonna get this years ago, but I didn't because someone stole the key out of the box. It was the only time I saw him.
He is called Megazarak in Super Link.
I have this guy, only because I don't have the G1 Headmaster one.
I got this figure at botcon, still had the tab in it. The lights and sounds aren't all that impressive, but still nice.
I don’t know if you’ve figured this out since you did this review but the guns inside the claws slide back and forth
Still the only G1 ish Scorponok update to date.
he did use jet mode in energon so yes it is official
Looks better then the one from revenge of the fallen
I am surprised they did not do a G1 redeco paint scheme like Omega Supreme.
They made a botcon figure for him :D
Ya I have that one but not on a retail level like Omega... maybe that is why
My figure is very tight aswell and I have had mine for many years
We need a titan Returns or even better a titan class version. Two modes...
My fav transformers figure off all time, I love this figure... but part of the left ar boke, so now mine can't have his left arm attached. :(
Trust me, Spada, he's better without the batteries..
I actually like the jet mode better then the tank mode
I think that scorponok is a very weird tank.
did physics ever exist in Transformers?
can you do a review on energon bruticus maximus?
i just turn my volume all the way up because i can't hear him lol!😂
7:49, that's my big problem with Scorponok: he can't move his claws forward
Wasn't scorponkok a terrocon and that's why he followed alpha Q
iv done a custom of this in g1 colours but I sold it and regret it
he mist a part n the knees
i see what he did there with blitzwing transformers animated ftw
02.06 my answer blitzwing
I have the black and grey version
balt isn't it obvious how he flew he has super powerful tiny engines and more tiny and he would blow up
pluis a bettwe question is how does tidal wave float
already said that dude. lol
I had the repaint of this guy
What is his origin story in superlink?
They should have killed the name "Hyper mode" and just called it "Hyper Offense" or "Power attack" just because it isn't really a "mode". That and it works better.
Yes, you are.
........primus????/ i think thats him, or you got the black, green unicron. and pirmus was a cybertron figure.
My pre school friend had him
Ahh the comments section is back on!
I hope there is a Retool for this Energon Scorponok
@@drakedy2145 There’s Cybertron Dark Scorponok, if that’s what you’re into.
@@mechanwhal6590 Yep
@@drakedy2145 There is the 2014 botcon exclusive G1 style retool for him!
My friend has scoponack
its transformers what do you expect?
Don't he have 4 modes a jet thing , a animal, a cane, tank
He never turned into a crane or tank well... Technically the construction thing could count but it's supposed to (obviously) represent a scorpion and he did turn into a jet in this toy
well yes then again mine's arms fell off and it look like a cane so all be in a way its a yes and no thing
Wait… did he just say blitzwinger?
no he said blitzwing
I remember getting this on Easter Sunday of 2004 when I was 9.
Wasn't scorponkok a terrocon and that's why he followed alpha Q
I remember having this toy as a kids.
It kicked ass
