If you collect 3rd party, which Scorponok figure do you think is the best representation of the character so far, both cartoon and comic versions? Also, which figure would be in scale with Perfect Effect's Warden?

Prob Master Made STD-04 Destruction Scorpion
here's a vid review of the figure(unfortunately it's in a foreign language)
It doesn't look too bad, though it seems to be pretty small. Like the size of a deluxe.

PerfectEffect teased a Scorponok a couple years back that would've been a little larger than their Warden, but alas it seems to have vanished. It's a real shame because I've been holding out for it.

I thought about going with BotCon Scorponok, but I'm not impressed by that figure at all. Warden looks so much better. I would get Lord Scorpion, but he's way too small. I waited for PE's Scorponok as well, but nothing came of it.

I really wish PE made their Scorpinok. I was holding out for it, but they've seemed to have moved on.

Maketoys Pandinus is, from what I've seen of him, awesome. He's a giant robot scorpion-ogre that transforms into a mechanical scorpion shaped landship and a goddamn temple of doom, and even his headmaster can form a teeny tiny scorpion. However, he's also absolutely monstrous- whilst he's not quite as tall, he's probably more massive than Fort Max in terms of sheer volume of plastic (especially that tail).

The MakeToys Scorponok really is delightful. I've seen no instances of any quality related issue. It's expensive, but it's damn near perfect.
