    His wings open up to be the batwing-esque shapes ala the cartoons! His coolness just went up a few notches alright!!!
    Love it! Now to army build? 7 is the generally agreed upon number right? And if I already have three botcon sweeps... Ack! Decisions decisions!!!

    That does look sweet. I will more than likely display him like that.

    There were 7 Sweeps?

    I thought there were only 3 (not including Scourge).

    (EDIT: Did some research - there could be more than 7 apparently, only 3 of them "have been graced with defined personalities and identifiers, namely Sweeps Two, Six and Seven")

    Anyway, I was planning on getting a United version to represent Scourge and 3 Hasbro ones to represent his armada - no one else better copy me now!

    Thumbs up Great homage...



    Well I finally received my Scourge today, so I thought I would post a few thoughts.

    To start off with, his alt mode is very cool and everything is tucked away neatly with little (if any) indication of robot bits underneath.

    The transformation is a little bit fiddly but is very well thought out and has quite a few surprising twists and turns (done without reading the instructions).

    In bot mode, he's a very nice homage to G1 Scourge (awesome head sculpt) and displays reasonably well with Galvatron & Cyclonus.

    My only gripe is that he's a bit short, but otherwise he's definitely a cool toy and a must buy.

    8/10 (would be a 8.5 but his lack of height bothers me)

    Interesting. I didn't realise he was that short. You wouldn't happen to have Titanium Scourge would you? I'd really appreciate a side-by-side comparison shot of them to see the height difference.

    Nope... sorry mate. If you wanted a height comparison shot with anything in the Classicverse range I can help out with, but I don't collect the Titaniums.

    There's really no comparison between the two IMO -
