Without having seen the video and going by only these pics, it almost kinda looks like Scorponok's mutant head is a mask worn by the robot head. Is this the case, or are they definitely two separate heads that need to be attached and detached to be swapped out?

Great -- another exclusive set that will be impossible to find here (NYC)! Would be nice if the Target to eBay pipeline could be shut down. </rant>

With this and SG Magnus, I like HasTak giving us spare heads to let us choose which one we want them displayed with!
I wouldn't mind if they continued this practice, kinda like when Masterpiece toys give us optional faces.

Going just by the photos, my guess is 2 separate heads. For the regular head the "jowls" or whatever has the yellow tips appear to hang down lower than the chin. On the mutant head, the "jowls" appear to be even with the bottom of the chin, so if it was a mask or helmet, I think we would see the yellow tips of the regular head peeking out from under.

We don't know if this Scorponok will actually come with alternate heads. Prime vs Prime gets his figures through unknown sources, with no box or instructions, probably test shots stolen from the factory. This means sometimes he gets extra or missing parts. When he got Blackarachnia, he got her with an extra face too, the toy accurate one, which wasn't included in the final product.

These are both looking good, that Scorponok deco looks sooo much better than the retail one.
To be fair though, the fact that both Scorponok heads are actually painted here does lead some credence to the fact that it may come with both intentionally. The Blackarachnia face/mask was unpainted.Rtron wrote:SpaceEagle wrote:With this and SG Magnus, I like HasTak giving us spare heads to let us choose which one we want them displayed with!

Parasite looks cool enough, but that Scorponok, homina homina. I needs him!

That's what I was thinking, too - seems intentionally deco'd out for both heads, so I'd assume both heads being included is intentional. At least, my biggest hunch about this being a "thing" is due to SG Magnus.

As sub-par a figure as Kingdom Scorponok was, this Buzzworthy re-deco is actually kind of tempting because it's mostly black. And as everyone knows, everything is immediately cooler when it's done over in black. It looks more like a proper Emperor Scorpion in those colors..
Except for the red legs of course - but, those could be painted... hm.

I love these toy redecos. They’re really filling out the BW Season 1 characters. Sad that we’ll probably never get any Fuzors or Transmetals, but anything is possible in the future. (Still out here rooting for a real Pretender gimmick comeback) There’s only one more I’m hoping for, a Fractyl from Terrorsaur!

Can't imagine that it's a coincidence that their decos match. Assuming the other pair in the box will be a voyager and a deluxe Maximal, I wonder if they'll match as well?
We already had rumors of a toy color Dinobot coming, right?

That Scorponok looks a lot better than the original, the darker colours and lack of yellow are a huge improvement. Parasite looks pretty good too, I am tempted to get this set and Buzzsaw, then have the wasps as the Predacon equivalent of Seekers.

Interesting how Legacy wave 1 has molds that work for 2 separate characters called Randack.
