i imagined that the pincers on scorponoks hands would be curved. but when i saw the toy and movie, why were his fingers curved to the left/right? it seemed weird!

The entwined design is because they are better suited for digging.

oh. but if they open, will the fingers become straight?

i looked at pictures and thought they'd get stuck together

It's been awhile since I saw the movie, so I can't remember if Scorp straightened them out.

But his Deluxe to's "fingers" are molded that way and cannot be straightened.

Even if Scorpy had have straightened out his claws in the film, Im sure there would have been so much motion blurr placed on them that we wouldnt have been able to tell anyway.

oh. i found something. look at scorponok's left claw on your right. that explains it!

as you can see, there are joints that stretch the finger to make it straight!

Yer... even if there wasn't motion blurred there was very quick movements with Scorponok making it very hard to see

Scorponok didn't transform in the movie. I think he can't transform at all.

The toy was only made to be able to transform only so that it won't look silly. Even so, the transformation is absolutely silly!

Anyway, without tranforming ability (in my opinion), he won't need to have hands.

He was basically Blackout/Vortex's pet. A Mechanical Scorpion is all, I hope Grimlock can transform in the next film. If not the toy will probably transform as an Homage to his original Transformation.

ya scoponok in the movie is the equivalent to ravage or lazerbeak...but who knows maybe just maybe he might have a robot mode if hes back for TF2...i hope he does cuz i dont like the idea of him as a pet.
