    I need more damn shelves. I'm going to have to completely reorganize my room soon. Right now most of my stuff is in storage bins in my closet!

    The only negative I find, and this one is purely subjective to my tastes is that he has no top-situated 5mm port to plug in Fracas (his Battlemaster) from Siege.

    Hasbro design team is absolutely blowing the doors off with these figures! Can't wait for Slag/Slug '86 movie reveal which I believe is in this wave also.

    Looks really amazing. Well, the body is. I do wish the wings were more like on the TR toy, but I guess they tried to do recapture the bat wing look and that is downright impossible. Still they did a good job, the head sculpt is great and the paint job is accurate. Funny that he transforms unlike any of the Scourge toys before, from G1 to TR, by NOT having the front tip of the vehicle turn into his toes.
    Odd that he is only as tall as Starscream - the first in hand shots made me think he was huge for a voyager. Cool that he got a blast effect, nice to see those are here to stay.

    We did get Fracas, he came with the WFC Skywarp set. :)  I am sure he will work just as fine for a Voyager as he does now for the deluxe Scourge.
    Heh, well, no need to sell your old ones, they will work fine as Sweeps! Me, I have (apart from the G1 toy) Titanium Scourge, Generations flying wing Scourge, TR Scourge, and Legends Scourge (and I bought the Sweep headmaster with the Legends Sharkticon so that one can look different). Given how we had as many as 7 Sweeps in some episodes and they died all the time... you can have as many Scourges repurposed to them as you wish.

    Wow this one really blows the Titans Return version out of the water. I'm sure any new version would be more impressive than the last but I'm sure the bump up to Voyager size really helped up the part count. As excellent as this guy looks though can we please agree to some kind of armistice or cease fire in the war to be the first to review stuff? Can we please at least wait until something is formally announced before posting a review? The Hasbro Con Kingdom reveals were full of "Where is_____" because everyone already knew about everything being revealed.

    I was never a fan of Scourge, especially because of the Goetee but man, they made the Goatee look great.

    Okay, so...

    - Alphatrion
    - Devcon
    - Senator Ratbat

    I hate scourge but this might be the best looking one out of them so far. Yeah, yeah, I know everyone loves Hot Rod.

    other youtube reviewers who aren't Jobby/Thew must be livid from the 1-2 punch coppa and now Tonton/PrimeVs prime have put on their viewing numbers.

    At this rate, there will be nothing to look forward to at NYTF.

    WOW, just wow. With him, Hot Rod, and Kup, I finally feel like I will be getting my money's worth. Even if they are expensive for their size, I do not mind paying for such great engineering. The beauty of Scourge is if you have previous versions, they are his sweeps to command. I prefer them to be slightly different than all alike.
    Kingdom and SS86 maybe the best thing to happen in 2020.

    Well, nothing says we won't see those molds in SELECT. I know some will say 'but Select is only Generations mold, not Movie molds' but....come on man, SS got assimilated by CHUG.

    In both mode destroys the very recent Cyclonus,last one is excellent although face could be much more S3, instead Scourge at the moment is near perfection.

    God dayum, he looks incredible. Such a stark contrast in comparison to that headmaster he got several years ago.

    Studio Series, specifically their 1986 subline.
