    This close up of his face tells me he has an alt mode. See the writing on the right side of the picture? Anyone care to speculate?

    That is because his alt mode is part of Blackout/Grindor. He probably makes up what is supposed to be Blackout/Grindor's fuel tank or something along those lines.

    yeah he has that stuff on him in the first film too, he is some section of blackouts alt mode that breaks off...


    so technically him and blackout are combiners seein as they go together to make teh helicopter

    although blackout later changes without scorponock an nothing seems missing :S

    Well, Blackout(and all transformers) is powered by his spark, so a not having a fuel tank wouldn't hinder him. (Kinda like how you never see autobots filling up at gas stations)

    Yup. His 'alt mode' is 'the rest of Blackout.'

    Skorponok has a fictional altmode, given that we will never see it because it would then mean that filmmakers of the movie actually care about a one-trick-pony character like Skorponok.

    He served his purpose in the first film and was thrown by the wayside by the middle of the film. So anything we see of him in the next movie is simply to lead up to his inevitable destruction, just so they can tie up loose ends.

    He is a victim of circumstance. More of a simple plot devise rather than a actual character, even the freaking Allspark had more character than him. Just another in the line of the under-used but awesome characters in the movie.

    I'd like to think he has a vehicle alt mode as a Predator recon drone. But a bit of Blackout seems more likely; he can cover over the missing section with the liquid metal sections of his protoform.
