O, there were several in both Generations and Reveal the Shield whose alternate heads were accidentally leaked. All but a few are accounted for though, Lugnut's and Warpath's are the only ones I know. I have a suspicion we'll see that one at BotCon 2013.
In the case of Scourge, the head shown is TakaraTomy's Sentor Ratbat.
In case you're curious, a rundown of leaked alternate heads:
RtS Wreck-Gar -> Gen. Junkheap
RtS Optimus Prime -> BotCon 2012 Ultra Magnus
RtS Lugnut -> ???
Gen. Cybertronian Bumblebee -> Gen. Cliffjumper
Gen. Sergeant Kup -> Gen. Swerve
Gen. Scourge -> TG Senator Ratbat
Gen. Thunderwing -> Gen. Sky Shadow
Gen. Warpath -> ???

Looking for:
- TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him
- PotP Punch head
- TR Galvatron right arm (the gun one)
- CW Brake-Neck/UW Wildrider, CW Offroad
- TR Twinferno & Grotusque
- Greenlight, Lancer and PotP Elita-1
- Legacy Core Slug, Sludge & Snarl

Still scheduled. Looking at current TakaraTomy release trends, expect him between June and July

Probably just as a cool easter egg.
I was thinking the Warpath Head was Strika's... But nooo... It's still different. Hardhead, maybe?

It does look like Hardhead, however Hasbro has claimed not to have any current plans for that alternate head.

I forgot about Lugnut. Interesting.

Funny how Easter eggs taste better than the regular bar of chocolate by the same company!
