      @@BladeCrossEXE Probably unintentional but most if not all them are leaders of a sort, G1 Scourge lead the sweeps, R.I.D Scourge was in Charge of the Decepticon Commandos, Cybertron Scourge was the leader of Jungle Planet, & Rise of the Beasts Scourge lead the Terrorcons. All versions of Scourge are also villains, but that goes without saying
      Technically Shattered Glass Scourge isn't a villain, but hey its Shattered Glass, that's the point.

      @@bitetheasp fun fact, after R.I.D called Black Convoy, Scourge in the dub, Japan went ahead and decided to call the next evil Optimus Prime, Scourge in Armada/Micron Legends, only for the English Dub team to come up with the name Nemesis Prime. I would imagine the Japanese team were a bit frustrated and confused about that decision.

    Scourge and the Sweeps are like Wreck-Gar and the Junkions or maybe all the Seekers. The problem is that Scourge looks exactly like his troops. They should have made him more distinct. I really liked the G1 version as a kid because of his beard. He looked like an old veteran which I thought was pretty cool. Oddly he was one of the youngest Decepticons so it didn’t really make sense.

    Rise of the beasts Scourge was the combination of his previous counterparts. He is hearld of Unicron just like his G1 self, has an alt mode of a monstrous truck just like his 2001 RID counterpart and is from a colony world like his Cybertron version. The movie makers really made Scourge a dangerous villain in the film.

    Funny story, I was resentful of Scourge (didn't exactly "hate" him but rather resented him for replacing Thundercracker - it's complicated) and the Sweeps until I saw TFTM, since I saw Season 3 & 4 first. I did not see TFTM until 1989 when it was broadcast in 5 parts with Tommy and Powermaster ("Puppetmaster") Prime on TV. Then Scourge and the Sweeps started to grow on me. They acted a lot different in the movie than in the cartoon, so I think that made a difference. But then when I thought about it I understood the behavior change - which occurred after Galvatron abandoned that one Sweep near Jupiter. It was then that the Sweeps knew that it was every mech for himself, literally, and that Galvatron would not come to their rescue if they were in trouble, despite their slavish loyalty, so thus their new "cowardly" behavior.

    I know it's a bit off-topic, but I always thought that Thundercracker becoming Scourge and Skywarp becoming Cyclonus made more sense. In the show, Skywarp was usually depicted as being the most loyal to Megatron of the Seekers, while Thundercracker was more of an opportunist, but not to the same degree as Starscream, and those personalities carried over when they were reformatted.

Scourge is also the leader of The Sweeps a specially created wolf pack of tracker-terminators, body-clones of Scourge, designed to hunt down and eradicate Autobots and their human, Humanoid,Nebulan, and Alien Allies, Scourge is also Merciless,Arrogant,Fearsome, and An Unstoppable Hunter and Killer, Scourge also has contempt for other beings particularly The Autobots Their Human and Nebulan Allies and all their Counterparts(from Beast Wars Continuity to The Earthspark Continuity), Also Nebulan Hive member Fracas is Scourge's Targetmaster Weapon who carries a Hair Trigger and violate temper. Also Scourge's only weakness is his arrogance, Scourge is also a member of The Evil Decepticons and The Deception TargetMasters and Headmasters and a current Alliy of The Hive,Also my other favorite version of Scourge is ROTB Scourge,Scourge was absolute beast in ROTB(Rise Of The Beasts) and a Pure evil Villain, I'll probably get his Studio Series figure later this year, Also ROTB Scourge fell like the most intimidating version of the character/Bad Guy/Evildoer/Villain/Supervillain, collecting of those faction symbols on his shoulder shows this. Also The ROTB Scourge is a combination of the Classic G1 and the 2001 Robots in Disguise. Peter Dinkalage did a great job voicing Scourge. He's a Herald of Unicron and great at tracking down enemies. Also Great but Superb Retrospective. I definitely like the G1 Incarnation the best but I really dig the Live Action Movie version of Scourge too. Also This a great refresher far as what happened to the Insecticons. Now I going to watch the Retrospective on the Sweeps tomorrow G1 Scourge(Cartoon) is my favorite. Also Amazing but Nice retrospective and I'm glad that they pick The main villain for Rise Of The Beast. Also Cybertron Dragon Scourge is my other favorite. '86 Scourge is still one of my favorite Decepticons of all time, Also thank you for sharing Rodimus, all I can say is keep up the good work stay safe out there have a good day and until next time TILL ALL ARE ONE.🙂🟢🦸💪🇺🇲🌆🏋️💚

    Scourge, I feel, is one of a few names that I think is reasonable to re-use time and time again. This name can mean so many different things. Be it in reference to a plague of insects, especially of biblical proportions, a rampant virus, or even an invasion of an alien or cosmic force.
    I feel that the ROTB version of scourge was the best considering he sounded so cold. So...devoid was he that he became a bounty hunter that Lockdown wishes he could be....Just probably the most callous villain to date.

    Completely unrelated, but in the new Rise of The Beasts movie, I see Battletrap as a kind of Sweep since he is one of Scourge’s henchmen. Yes I know Battletrap has his own G1 counterpart but seeing him similar to a Sweep from G1 feels like it fits>>>

      Wrong!!! ROTB Scourge already has multiple Sweeps. The first 2, that reside within him, are Novakane & Freezer. The rest look like scorpions (a probable hint to Scorponok) even though most of them have 6 legs.
      Edit: anyways, that will be all... Till all are one.

    Quick correction: Re-coloring Prime in this color scheme didn’t start with RiD Scourge/Black Convoy. It started with Black Lio Convoy. Folks seem to forget that a lot. We have Beast Wars II to thank for Nemesis Prime.

      @ArchGeek 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yeah, you noted he “wasn’t the first dark clone of Optimus” but you went on to state “his popularity sparked a trend of recoloring Prime into a black, gray and teal color scheme.” If Scourge in RiD was named Nemesis Prime, this would make sense, but he’s not. Instead he’s just the second clone of Convoy in black, grey, and teal.
      Beast Wars II sparked the trend.

    • @thedeangaming4010

    Huh. One of the few things IDW did right was to ignore TF:TM and make Scourge, Cyclonus, and Galvatron their own bots with nothing to do with previous 'Cons. That said, it was great to see original Deceps Megatron, Starscream, Skywarp, and Thundercracker reunite in "Ghost In The Machine"...sort of.

    • @RodimusPrimal
      @RodimusPrimal  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      I fundamentally disagree. Their entire concepts as characters were meant to be upgraded versions of previous characters. Especially Galvatron. The whole time I read the Heart of Darkness and Chaos arc I could easily see that they were written with their G1 origins in mind, but the mandate of "cant be Unicron or previous characters." Not to mention that the art was... Yeah I don't care for the changes IDW made.

    • @captainfantastic9158
      @captainfantastic9158 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@RodimusPrimal I gotcha, RP. But it's weird to me having Megatron, Skywarp, and Thundercracker co-existing with their future counterparts. Like having Optimus & Rodimus in the same space/time. Yes, I remember all six 'Cons co-existed in the (wonderful) U.K. stories, and it worked---but generally speaking, it feels like an unnecessary confusion to me. Keep one trio or the other, but keep the three pairs separate entities.
      By the way, Rodimius, please don't think that I'm suddenly in love with everything IDW did. I'll ALWAYS believe they did a major disservice to TF!!! XD

    @robertfrazier6563 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    [ Well ] No doubt that Scourge is indeed an effective Decepticon ( As long as he know his place around Galvatron & Cyclonus ). It's very plausible there's a bit of Thundercracker within Scourge but remember when Unicron gave Megatron & 5 other Decepticons a makeover he also reprogram them as well as gave them different personalities. [ Also ] I believe during season 3 of the Transformers ( G1 ) it should been 3 Sweeps including Scourge ( having 5 or 6 Sweeps in season 3 make anyone thinking that there's a bit of Insecticons within 2 of the Sweeps making copies of 1 another ).
