E-Hobby have announced they will be carrying a new exclusive release – a Scourge themed version of Combiner Wars Voyager Optimus Prime! This Grand Scourge is a black and gold version of Combiner Wars Optiimus, and is a homage to a pla-kit released in the Super Link line in 2004, picking up on the Transformers Energon Optimus Prime references in this toy.
Grand Scourge comes with a huge cleaver of a sword, named “Matrix Breaker”, repurposed from the Ultimate Beast Hunter Optimus Prime. He’s due for release in September priced at 6,500 yen, and will also come with his own (Japanese) comic to explain his backstory.

Also needs a parallelogram trailer, am I right or am I right?

^ I'll be down for that.

It wouldn't surprise me if some 3P made Energon style limbs. They don't need robot modes or anything. Just vehicles that become limbs. Make them colored for both Optimus and Grand Scourge.

^ That's the only reason why I'm holding back my preorder for this guy here.
I wanna see some limbs (hopefully the Makers replicate those as close to the Pla-Kit version as possible) & I'm good to go.

That is awesome…
Still,too bad there isn't any a team based on his "Powered up" limbs though.

If you're looking for one, because you can't get it from e-Hobby, you may have missed that He's available and in stock at HLJ

Now to wait for him to show up on Ebay and Amazon.

Good Call Uncle Joe!!
I am ordering parts now, great idea!!… I wondered if we'd get minion recolors for Scourge to unite with, I saw e-hobby's pics of him combined with the Stunticons in Motormaster's place…
I grabbed the Japan-only Grand Scourge Model Kit a few months ago:

Also placed a pre-order for him. The CW mold is not that bad and like some have said, it has grown on me.

I'm more hyped about the new images of the UW Stunticon limbs he's using than Grand Scourge himself…LOL

Dammit, just release it already! September feels like forever!

I hope not. At least not for Grand Scourge.
Only one of his limbs should be black.

I fully expect Takara to do every single limb in black at some point.

Oh how I hate that hip configuration.
Looks great otherwise.
Thundershot
So…. I REALLY hope they eventually make his own limbs for him when we get semi-appropriate molds. Alas, the chances of a sub and deluxe fire truck aren't good, and if we get Nosecone we'll have a drill….
