Scorpions aren't insects.

No, I believe they fall in the arachnid category as they have 8 legs.

I don't believe that Hasbro has that name trademarked...and in the world we live in, given that there are a lot of people who are overly sensitive about such things and that there are a lot of war vets out there, I don't believe that Hasro would even consider using the name anymore.

Agreed. Definitely getting an Insecticon vibe, especially as hordes of them will be in the new FoC game- ideal for a tie in.

Seconded. And thirded. AM I wrong or are those giant drillbits on/near his shoulders?

You're an Earth human. Cybertronians probably have a different concept of vermin.

Im going to be radical and make a suggestion that many of you will dislike

I know it sounds bad but look, hes the right colours, looks kind of beastly and (unless i am mistaken) i dont think it has been confirmed that this guy is a con
Think about it, i dont think it is all that impossible considering what has happened so far what with Unicron being Earth etc

According to the Transformers FB page, this is Insecticon.

The Transformers facebook page has posted an exclusive character design for this weekend's episode of Transformers Prime "Orion Pax - Part 3". Take a look at Insecticon below, and don't forget to tune into the Hub on Saturday at 8:30 pm ET for the exciting conclusion of the season premiere story arc.

So it is Insecticon.



Win!

So did Hasbro lose the rights to the names of ALL the Insecticons? Is that why we keep getting one guy generically named Insecticon instead of actual Insecticons? Bah, people suck. Oh well, at least this guy looks awesome!

Also: What's with the red Decepticon symbol?

The scraplets were relatively tiny though. i kinda mean it looks more bestial than vermin

I would love a toy of this guy cuz he looks so cool, but what would he transform into?

Probably the cocoon he came out of
