    Scourge has claw-like finger nails, they're a carry over from the original mold. I think his right hand is just a little awkwardly photoshopped, the hands seem unchanged.

    I really like this actually, I love the new head sculpt, plus I'm a total sucker for this colour layout.

    My boy was asking me for this guy the other day as he saw that ep for the first time . Probably will be too expensive to buy for a 7 year old

    Well, that was mainly because there was no good reason to single out Metalhawk and give him his pretender look, and the fact only 0,01% of the toys made actually didn't look cross-eyed :lol 

    Invasion 2012 was an outright clusterfuck of ideas. I'm sure nobody would object to a Slizardo figure, as long as it doesn't come at the cost of something else.

    It won't, because this is a Botcon boxset figure?

    Considering it seems like everyone has been begging for a Devcon for so long, may I just say...

    And the fandom did rejoice.

    This is great! I like the new head sculpt, and even though its not my favorite mold, I think it totally fits for the character.

    Well, with three deluxes down it seems likely that the next reveal should be a Voyager or perhaps something larger. They said an Energon mold returns this year, I would love it if it turned out to be Rotorstorm or Over-Run from Energon Bulkhead.

    The similarities between Scourge and Devcon are close enough to make a very interesting story.
