I would very much like to own that figure as it has just enough distinction from the generations version to be set apart as unique without looking too different. Perfect to be the primary scourge.


He's a Takara figure:

I only need one there is after all only one scourge and im content with the main trio galvatron cyclonus & scourge

obviously i see the desire but the sweeps i didnt buy helped me complete the generations line thus far.

Weapon: Sword
I have one United, the e-hobby clear version, and two Hasbro versions.

E-hobby is on display with e-hobby Galvatron, Scourge and Cyclonus in front of Takara Unicron. The United and Hasbro versions are on the Classics shelf. I don't plan on getting anymore, but they are cool figures. I also see plenty of them in stores, along with Kup and Wheeljack.

I have four Generations ones and the United version as Scourge proper.

It's hard to display any more of them...

And so it turns out that Sweeps are the lazy counterpart of Seekers.

For me, personally, two is one too many. There are too many other figures out there that I want for me to spend money buying multiples of the same figure.

That was my way of thinking for awhile. Now though, since I have bought every store available figure there is to buy and have bought almost all the back figures I want from ebay and members I find myself to broke to purchase the remaining figures I need from ebay and since there are no others to buy from shelfs Im kind of stuck.
Id be lying If I said that I didnt open those figures partly out of a need to open new figures. Having said that, I am truely glad that I kept and opened them as the display looks much better with galv, cyclonus, scourge and a few "sweeps" backing them than it did with jus galv cyclonus and scourge.
Now that I have learned of this united scourge though, and since I like his design a bit better than the hasbro figure, Im going to have to squeeze him onto my needs list.
I generaly like the eastern counterparts to our american figures due to a more original paint app. Some of the U.S. paint jobs are just silly IMO and I wish that hasbro would start releasing the same original paint scheemes so I can save some cash.
