Out of all the retro releases of these figures, this was the one that has caught my eye every time I stroll into the toy isle. The beast mode it is displayed perfectly in the box. School took over for me during the time of beast wars so I wasn’t collecting at the time

Awesome job reviewing this one! Very cool to hear a veteran reviewing this one through fresh eyes and getting a real first impression. Personally, I LOVE this release. It’s a super fun, cool looking figure and it’s significantly different from the original that I’ve been looking at for 25 (gasp) years.

The head and legs of the bee is also on a spring joint, the idea being that you close them up inside the wings first before locking into place inside the claw, it just provides a slightly cleaner look and distinguishes the 2 modes slightly more.

Very nice review once again, baltmatrix! I love that Hasbro has been rereleasing older Transformers figures into retail again, first starting off with the original TF toy line, now with the Beast Wars toy line, and I hope they continue rereleasing these figures! I recently picked up vintage BW Cheetor, Rattrap, and Megatron, now I just need Optimus Primal, and I'll be all set (although I had no idea that they rereleased BW Scorponok too, I'll have to try, and track him down also someday)! I really do miss these kinds of figures. They were so well built, they made some of the most satisfying plastic, clicking noises ever (also some of my favorite sounds of all time! I could listen to them for hours), (debatably) very fun, gimmicky features, and were overall a blast to mess around with! :D I really wish I picked these up when they originally came out when I was 6, but, hey, at least I have another chance now! I think I do kinda remember Kenner, they did make some pretty solid toys back in the day! Shame that the company went out of business over 20 years ago, though, I was only 10 when that happened... :( R.I.P. Kenner, and thank you.

Love you actually made Scorponok out as a complete dork like he's supposed to be. Though, I wonder if there's anyone who can mod his claws to be swapped between arms to match his in-show weapon positions, as I can only ever recall Scorponok firing his missiles in his right arm in robot mode.

I had the same issue with mine, the trigger that you used to fire the bee got pretty loose with time. I also feel it should be mentioned that his body doesn't stay pegged together too great in robot mode, and like we see in this video, his hip joints were also quite loose as well

Well, you still don't have the original. The box style is slightly different, and the toy is recolored a bit to be more show accurate. The original was jet black and red with claws that are the same color but translucent. On a side note, this is one of the figures that my late dad stopped on the way from work and brought home for me. The other was Tigatron. He was pretty into Beast Wars, too.

Balt, I love you, but you’re out of your friggin’ mind with this review. The latest Scorponok release is world’s better than that old crappy, out of proportion, miscolored, lame-headed misrepresentation of the character. The most recent release is the best representation of the character ever.
@muisverriet

Not hard to be the best representation when the previous one is 27 years old and came out before the show. I think this one is much more fun than the new one in nearly every way. That alone makes it better in my personal view.
