I have three. One nearly complete, and two missing most accessories.

SCROPONOK is awesome!
He has all those things that do that stuff.
On top of all that, he transforms.

by **YouFearGalvatron** » Thu Jul 05, 2007 2:05 pm

To me, in this case, the first is still the best. G1 Scorponok is the epitomie of badassness, even for a large Decepticon...all others have just been pretenders to the Throne.

But, I must say that BW Scorponok was an AWESOME figure, and very original in concept, and execution.

But G1 Scorponok is still The Boss in my book.

I disagree about BW Scorpy. He is a badass looking figure, but that cyberbee feature that doesn't function properly for long absolutely ruins him. I've thought of just gluing mine down, but then I just sold it.

Roughly how much is a G1 scorponok? I have one with a tattered box (tech spec cutout) but have shell and figure with only one accessory missing I think. Joints are very tight - barely played with.

thx

I'm not going to sell it - just wondering about the market value. The toy is C8.5 to 9 condition, tight joints, no discoloring (sat in box).

WITH the box, they fetch $225-250, sometimes more. I lost two with the box that were well over $300...I know, I looked on eBay for MONTHS for one...and now...I have...three.
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

And, uh...believe it or not...on the 1st, I bought one MINT and complete in a c8 box as well...

Because 1 G1 Scorponok is NEVER ENOUGH! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I can GUARANTEE I have more G1 Scorponoks than ANYONE here on Seiertron.com! Bwuahahahahahaha

cool. When i find mine again at my parents house, you can tell me what pieces I'm missing. Not many missing though, i think.

The larger pieces like the orange ramps are easy to source on ePay. But the smaller bits are VERY HARD to find. That is why I just bought this one, because it is COMPLETE, unlike the others I have, where I have enough parts to make only one, kind of complete (missing 3 radar dishes, both chrome leg guards, FastTrack's two arms, and his two tiny orance guns)...so, yeah he comes with a few parts. About as many as old Metroplex.

Hey, wait a tick, headless SCROPONOKS don't count! :-x

But my 2 Brave Maximus figures would stomp on your 3 SCROPONOKS.

I just have one SCROPO. Maybe someday I'll snag another. He is one of the coolest. I wish I had a Black Zarak but I hear they are extremely fragile.

He is very fragile. Not worth the cash, IMHO.

Besides, why pay 2X the price when you can have the version with the non-breaking feature for free? :lol:

That is IF you can find a Black Zarak...better luck looking for moon rocks here on earth, friend...probably cheaper too.

Not really...Scorponok is Fort Max's waitress.

It would not be that way if Scorponok actually got a figure 2X LARGER to compete with the big Max.

This way, the Decepticons will always be destined for defeat...at least in the G1 universe.

An unfortunate situation...

Well, with 3 already here, and a 4th, fully-armed reinforcement arriving soon, I guess the team of Scorponoks can, indeed "swarm". :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Good stuff.

I have a loose Metroplex too. I'm 90% sure it's complete. What do those go for loose? Boxed? Who is the hardest to find of the big guys - Omega? Trypticon? Metro? Scorpy?

Not that I own all of those, but UNboxed:
Metroplex: $80-100
Trypticon: $120-180
Omega Supreme: $140-200
Scorponok: $180-240

Boxed prices, believe me, you DON'T want to know...especially if you are trying to buy one.

I have a C9.5+ Metroplex that has EVERYTHING except for the red plastic reader strip and istruction booklet. He also has his box C7 with a NM styrofoam insert. I have tried to sell him, but no one wants to pay what I want for him: $200 plus s+h. So, I will just keep him.

But anyone worth their salt on this board call tell you that a lot of G1 stuff, especially the "CityFormers/BaseFormers", bring in the BIG cash come buying/selling time.

And they will only keep going up in value, believe it.
