Tbph, I feel like if they actually gave the legs on Scorpio some sort of posability (and I mean ACTUAL posability, not just "rearrange a couple of pieces for the sake of rearranging pieces") in the legs, I could actually see myself wanting to get my hands on this guy. But, at the very least, he makes for a pretty decent parts pack, if nothing else. Sooooo, there's that.
Couple set backs with that one. Not only is it like twice as long as the last four, but it seems to be cursed; one thing is going wrong after another. Not sure if I'll be able to get it out by tomorrow night, but I'll try my best. :\
So, you're going to change all of the key features of the skull Scorpio and say that it's better without the gimmick, but not simply replace two pieces of the skull brasher(replace the beige pins with blue) to stiffen up the feature and still having it fully active
The difference is that here you just need to re-place one of the elements already included in the set, whereas with Basher you have to modify it using extraneous pieces. The modifications that help me to enjoy the set more are entirely self contained.
This guy is my least favorite of the winter wave. Having said that, his play feature is really fun! I played the Kanohi game with my gf: I was skull scorpio and she was skull basher. That tail knocks off the masks so easily! It doesn't even have to hook in! And those pincers, if positioned right block incoming attacks really well!
I think you mean summer wave, right? Regardless... sounds like fun! I've actually never even considered playing the Kanohi game with the new sets. Huh.
Oops! Yeah I meant summer wave! And yeah, the Kanohi game is really fun with skull scorpio and skull basher! I tried with the Toa sets, but their gears are too stiff and if you start swinging wildly, the arms start to flail out of position. Although I dislike this set aesthetically and am disappointed with the lack of leg articulation, I think that this set arguably has the best/funnest play feature out of all the sets released so far.
I think the reason of the legs having no real articulation is for the tail. Maybe they are static so the figure is more stable when using the funtion. I dont know, what do you think?
I have to say, my least favorite figure is Kulta. He just does not have any real unique features. I actually really like Skull Scorpio because he seems to draw a lot of inspiration from the 2001 Rahi
+ThatRedHeadGuy warrior and kulta are the only skull villians without on slicer has 4 arms bashed bashes this guy has an axe tail and LOSS has his weird jumping gimmick
I love the function but it’s design rubbish and the legs could be changed by adding ball joints on to the axle holes used by the legs then make some legs
I know, but I'm asking if some of the lime green would look strange. I'm not sure a printed chestplate would be necessary for Skull Scorpio, but to each their own.
This is actually one of my favorite Skull Villians. I wish the other ones had been more based on animals as well, getting kind of tired of humanoids .

Boy oh boy, the Skull Grinder review's gonna rock!

+RolloutReviews this is the worst set of this year
+RolloutReviews guess something with this last review went terribly wrong? hope all is going well
Well, since I couldn't get it done before Halloween, I decided to slow down and take my time with what I have left. Should be done soon though. :P
Neat. I really appreciate the quality of these reviews.
I love the fact this is like that one rahi beast from G1.

+RolloutReviews good point, it's just that I previously thought that you reviewed these sets objectively. Still a great subjective review tough

I see it as a throwback to that one rahi beast from G1.
i like this set more than LOSS but i still preffer any other (2015) bionicle set any day

That makes sense.
What if instead of the mask grabber tail it had the weird leg moving things like pewku's set?

I see it as like a rahi beast.
I wish they made a water based villain. They should have make a corrupted water and fire golden mask.
I hated this figure.. but your fixes make me want it now... thanks dude
The legs are such a shame. The set LOOKS amazing.
I love the function but it’s design rubbish and the legs could be changed by adding ball joints on to the axle holes used by the legs then make some legs
how can every hate skull scorpio he is almost my favorite
which of the stand alone skull villains is your favorite?
I'm not sure. I have a hard time choosing between Warrior and Slicer, honestly. But one of those two.
***** I personally prefer Slicer because of his unique design and trans-green plastic.
I actually prefer this one over warriour
skull scorpio is my favorite skull villein
Skull Scorpio was my only 2015 summer wave set.
I forgot about it.
And i totaly didn't know you could tilt the tail and the disengaiging the function.
Posibly butchered the word disengaiging.
For Scorpio's chest piece, I added one I had from an extra copy of Lewa.
Wouldn't the solid green look strange?
+ltranc I am talking about the printed chestpiece, mind you. It's a mix of like and yellow that really works on Scorpio.
I know, but I'm asking if some of the lime green would look strange. I'm not sure a printed chestplate would be necessary for Skull Scorpio, but to each their own.
The great thing about the Tr. Neon Green used by Scorpio is that it works really well with the different colors on the chestplate.
If I had that I would take it apart because with all those pieces you could build a new skull warrior
I used that Kakama for my self moc
Why would she look at the poor Rock queens or the animals from the first wave of Bionicles
i cant decide if i should get skull scorpio or skull basher
scorpio because i got basher and he kinda sucks
bashers arms are too lose so you can't pose him very well
could you make your own spoke Scarry skeleton moc please.💀💀💀🃏🃏👊
I don't care I love it I don't care I love it I love it
Im sp00ked
I wish tahu had a corrupted mask like pohatu lewa kopaka and onua
The hero pack was a thing back then.
Make more videos of b daman
at 0:15 note block spooky scary skeletons
I still did a moc
