Transformers Robots in Disguise Warrior Scorponok In-Hand Images

Posted by D-Maximal_Primal Jun 20, 2016 at 8:23am CDT 32,502 views
Thanks to Wilton Wong on Facebook, we have our first in-hand images of the upcoming Robots In Disguise Warrior Scorponok figure! Scorponok is a brand new mold based on the Season 2 baddie who showed that he was the muscle and he could be in charge. Scorponok features a transformation different from pretty much every other Scorponok ever, and while housing a slight backpack with his scorpion tail and no real hands, he does appear to be a solid figure and he even includes the ability to place his beast mode head over his regular robot head. Check out the images mirrored below and let us know what you think in the comments section, and as always stay tuned to Seibertron.com for all your latest Transformers News and Galleries!

He looks so weird, but in a good way. I am really liking him and I cannot wait for him and Windblade to join my shelf

I foresee many customs/digibashes for this guy.

He's a sweet looking figure. So far he appears to be another strong release for the RiD cons. The only bad RiD con so far is Steeljaw.

Did you notice how good some of his paint apps are? He looks cool figure wise, paint wise, and transformation wise. I'm excited too!

Mutant mask? Scorponok looks okay so far. I don't want to be the bad grape in the vine, but I can't make any final judgments before I see Takara's Scorponok.

Yeah I noticed that paint as well. He looks great. Very original for a scorpion transformer. What I find very interesting is how his bucaneer like sabr becomes his stinger.

He really is a unique bugger and I love it. The skinny legs look a bit weird to me, but overall he is a darn good looking guy

Yeah, it takes a certain type to be able to easily get past them; they are fairly extreme in his case though :-?

Yeah, they are very extreme. Its because for this toy, it seems the designers wanted to give something very new with having the limbs not be anything repeated from the alt mode (which is very hard to do with beasts), so he ends up having a lot of kibble in the back and on his shoulders with small arms and legs that can tuck away easily in alt mode. It was a bold decision and I give it merrit but I do admit that it would have probably been better to integrate some more alt mode into the limbs. I will still get this guy though, I am a sucker for original designs.

But if someone wants an awesome transforming Scorpion bot, Beast Wars Scorponoc offers an excellent and very modern transformation.

I love the design, loved the extreme's they went to in rotf and beast machines, so this is great - though, I would like to know just what his arms are supposed to be, tentacles? And to be fair, he can wear his claws as boxing gloves, so that's partial integration ;)

They look like biomechanical hooks to me, in the style of soemthign you would find on insects like the praying mantis:

His legs look a lot like praying mantis legs too.

Thanks to the Action Robo Facebook page, we have confirmation that the 7th wave of Robots in Disguise toys have begun showing up in international stores! Action Robo found the new wave in Hong Kong, and the wave features Autobots Windblade and Power Surge Optimus Prime and Decepticon Scorponok, whom we had just recently got some new in-hand images of. With Wave 7 now showing up internationally, we can expect the wave to start showing up around the rest of the world very shortly. The lull in new Transformers is ending folks, so brace your wallet and your display cases!

Sadly my eyes keep veering over to the new wave of marvel legends. Those look nice

lol I was looking at the Marvel Legends on the side too. I really want that Electro. the only RID figures here that intrigue me are Scorponok and Windblade.
