Takara Tomy's release of Stalker Scorponok from the Revenge of The Fallen toy line will be a Toys R Us exclusive, as indicated by their online listing here. Note that this would appear to be the case only for Stalker Scorponok's Japanese release, as nothing regarding this was mentioned at Botcon 09, so it is still likely he will see a general release in the US.

Well, this figure really should be known as "Come out of nowhere to attack an old Decepticon for no apparent reason when your whereabouts were never mentioned from the time you disappeared in the first film with no tail and now you got it back" Skorponok.


But that may not fit on the package.

I know right? :D where the hell did he come from in the movie. Was he just chilling in the middle east until he conveniently popped up to own jetfire? :-?

He gets released in Japan and the US, but he is a TRU exclusive in Japan.

Yup, this is Takara version, exclusively to Japan TRU.
We of course will have Hasbro version as well.

Good.

For some unknown reason I'm really looking forward to this repaint. 8-}
