    Once again TakTom did justice to NuRID designs... by simply putting colors on them.

    Observe, Hasbro. This is how paint apps look.

    TAV Scorponok is a handsome beast. Once again my only reason for interest in this line is Takara version. I can only anticipate their Windblade.

    But I'd rather not be rude, so I won't comment on this innovative minicon sword design...

    Did they just... Give Scorponok a base mode?
    Or is that a transformation picture?

    Either way, lookin' good.

    Takara Tomy's painting is indeed more detailed and vivid, but I don't like his gold face:/...I guess I will get the Hasbro version. I can't wait to see Takara's Windblade, there's no way her color scheme looks better in Hasbro version.

    Still think that Scroponok figure is crap but that's par for the course with RID.

    The paint on Scorponok looks great! Those minicons though... really don't care about it, but it didn't make Scorponok any pricier so I am just fine letting it hang around somewhere.

    Sweet! Glad I splurged for this guy. The paint on Scorponok looks great. Hopefully I'll get a payment request from HLJ soon.

    I still think a heavy retool of Sideswipe could provide a solid base for a fembot/con...

    Hmm, if I see him in my local hobby shop, I'll bite. Takara's Scorponok looks nice and shiny with the gold. :D
