G1 Scorponok's death by Unicron will always unsettle me. The thought that a warrior powerful enough to usurp Megatron himself for leadership of the Decepticons meets his end melting alive in incomprehendible agony, desperately asking Optimus his sworn enemy for approval, like a child asking their parent if they made them proud after getting injured in some way, before death mercifully overtakes Scorponok.

I'd have to say the Marvel Era's take on Scorponok is my favourite, despite the character being evil there was something noble about his character and when he was bonded with Zarak both personalities merged to become something really memorable in terms of character. Right up until he tried to do the right thing by charge head on at Unicron knowing full well that he could die but he did it anyway and Prime told him that he did good, that moment shook me when I read that for the first time. As ever Chris, great stuff.

Wish more versions of Scorponok were written closer to that. Weirdly enough the closest Scorponok ever got to having this characterization again was probably Energon. This is pretty unfortunate because while Scorponok was one of the better-written characters in the show, the negative reputation of TF Energon, makes it so any element of it is unlikely to persist.

Same, even as a kid I took note of the fact that he was the only Decepticon leader who would, at least internally, give Optimus Prime the benefit of a doubt when Prime approached the Decepticons about a mutual threat, an observation which probably didn't escape Prime either since he's the one he surrendered the Autobots to after Unicron showed up.

Actually writing a (fan) story right now (literally as I listen to this) that heavily features him. He's like Marvel Scorponok mixed with the intelligence of Thrawn from Star Wars. Seemed like a fun combination in concept, and it still is.

I was given Scorponok for Chrismas in 1987 and I still have him. I'm looking forward to the Earthrise figure.

You know, I’ve always wanted to see a version of Energon Scorponok where he and the Terrorcons were actually energy pirates - attacking planets, stealing their energy and leaving worlds. Which could lead them to fighting against both Autobot and Decepticon as a new threat. Which would be awesome.

Agreed, Budiansky made him a smart, calculating villain where Furman developed the character making him honourable. There isn't too many Decepticon leaders that had an arc like Scorponok's that had trouble keeping his troops on side. The intrigue was more complex than the usual Starscream shooting Megatron in the back type storylines. It was amazing writing by Furman.

Honestly, my top Scorponok is the Marvel one, but mostly because I'm really grumpy about how he got done dirty. Furman spent like 20 issues building up the relationship between Scorponok and Zarak, he showed their doubts and struggles and the conflict between the frail, doubtful human and the destructive and battlehungry warrior. And it all culminated so beautifully in him finally finding the balance between those two, brokering a truce and rushing to the frontlines against Unicron, sacrificing his life in an attempt to delay the Chaos-Bringer for even one more second. It's honestly one of the best arcs the comic ever got. And then Furman brought him back from the dead, ditched nearly all his character development in favor of giving him his much less interesting IDW personality, and turned him into yet another generic mad scientist so that he could fill a couple issues with a really dumb plan and kill off Scorponok again at the hands of Grimlock. Man, fuck Regeneration One.

@@mitchfletcher2386 I like the g1, animated ,unicorn trilogy and the Netflix trilogy of scorponok I think in my own transformers universe scorponok was a Innocent cybertronian from a another planet until he was enslaved and tortured and forced to bow to the quintesson alpha and they destroyed his people 25 years when the autobots and decepticons found scorponok in a abandoned quintessons (ship which he'd killed its crew) scorponok mistaken the autobots and decepticons as suffices to the quintesson so he almost destroyed them until optimus prime and megatron kicked him and thrown 5 grenades at him letting him to float in space. 6 millions years later after the autobot and decepticon war came to an end so did the end of quintessons, the human character named porter C. Powell once a CEO of his company Powell motorwolks and boss of sumdac robotic Industries (until the autobots and sari resuce isaac sumdac from the decepticons) and was about to be elected as mayor of Detroit until he was defeated by the junkion transformer Wreck gar. Now broke and now had to work at a low paid diner. He suddenly came to face to scorponok when he was Buried in lake in Canada. He help scorponok and rebuilt him into a headmaster (which porter stole Henry Masterson blueprints when he'd died) and together they seek revenge on there enemies and recruited decepticons to become headmasters, targetmasters, and powermaster as a small but powerful army.

Personally I like the Energon version the most. Both the cartoon and comic versions had interesting and well developed stories, I love how the toy combines the scorpion mode with aspects of heavy construction machinery to go with his purpose of revitalizing Unicron, and it pulls off it's space cruiser third mode much better than the original toy did it's city/base mode. Space Mafia Scorponok from the IDW comics would be a close second. It's cool that he is finally getting a toy comparative in size to Fort Max, but honestly Scorponok doesn't NEED to be huge to be a large and in charge interesting Decepticon.

Remember that time in Transformers Energon when they set up a fairly interesting character arc for Scorponok, followed it through to the very end and closed it out with a largely satisfactory ending? Imagine if they'd done that with literally any other story arc from Energon.

My favorite version of Scorponok is the Marvel Comic version.

His relationship with Lord Zarak was a very interesting one, whether written by Bob Budiansky or Simon Furman. I also like the IDW version as well.

I always thought that Beast Wars Scorponok was actually one of the more competent Preds, because of his technical abilities in creating those bee drones and appearing during battles out of nowhere one shotting the Maximals with his rockets.

It's impressive he was even able to do the stuff with his cyberbees given that even Waspinator could outwit him, haha.

I was able to get my hands on a reprint of that particular comic and was, while not aware of the continuity in the comics, impressed in Scorponok's sacrifice. As always thank you for all your hard work and dedication, Chris!

Fun Fact: in RID 2015, Scorponok had a sort of brother named Paralon...who was designed after his Beast Wars incarnation!!!

I love how in G1 he is one of the largest, but in the bayformers he is one of the smol bois.

I always liked the portrayal of Scorponok at the end of the Marvel G1 comics. He seemed more intelligent, more reasonable and at the same time more manacling than in most of his other appearances. Out of all the Decepticon leaders, he's probably my favourite because of his Marvel comics portrayal.

I managed to find the G1 Scorponok with all its weapons and accessories at a second-hand toyshop for a (relatively) measely £150. It sounds like a bomb, but when you see how much Scorponok with all its pieces sells for on ebay, you'll see it was quite the bargain!
