Review - Generations Scourge

[lcz128]

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.

There's really no comparison between the two IMO -

IIRC, Titanium Series were developed entirely by Hasbro (their Galoob division), whereas of course Scourge would have been developed with TakaraTOMY. Hence why Titanium Series TFs pretty much suck. I just get them for characters for which there are no alternatives (e.g. Dark Ages The Fallen, War Within characters etc.). I did get Scourge though cos someone was selling him loose for cheap. Can't wait to get RtS Scourge... besides, I got the Fracas Mini-Con standing around with nobody to binary bond to.

I just got mine. I grabbed two in the aid of making them sweeps. I really like it. Lots of possibilities for movement and posing as there are various joins all over his body. The instructions make transformation overly complex though and I found mysle fgetting frustrated with them towards the end. He isn't that complex to transform though, so just drop them and work it out yourself.

The wings allow for different options, ie to follow the picture on the card, or open them up for a larger look, face details are great, light piping eyes effective and paint is pretty good. I also like the way transforming him is very reminiscent of the G1 toy, from what I remember anyway.

Overall, an excellent figure. Vehicle/Robot Scale has always been a contentious issue in transformers, so you have to ignore this aspect, as one does with many other figures and enjoy the toy for what it is, a great toy!

I like this toy. Like Optics I have the United version, but I'm not sure I'll go for his Classics Sweep army!

Simple but fun & fits nicely with the others such as Cyclonus & Galvatron (:
