    Wasn't a huge fan of Scorponok's Bee-Claw on the original toy. It's finicky and launches too easily. So when I picked out the Scorponok I'd keep for my personal collection...I decided to swap out his bee-claw for a second missile-claw. That left me with...well...The opposite as well. I had enough parts leftover to make a Double-Bee Scorponok. Not my fancy, but maybe someone will like it?



    So basically:
    1. No repainting was done at all.
    2. The Missile-Arm was replaced with a second Bee-Arm.
    3. The additional Bee-Arm itself had a broken trigger. It was replaced with a bit of wire and...It works better than the original toy! it's completely solid and stable, and the bee doesn't go anywhere UNTIL you try to launch it.


    I'm basically just doing this to try and minimalize the cost of the scorponok I'm keeping. But hey, if you like it, feel free to take it off my hands:

    Cool! I really think Scorponok deserves to be the next BW redo for Generations. His original mold was underused and looked nothing like the show model.
