The live action Michael Bay version of him is what introduced me to the character, but I was first introduced to transformers in the Beast Wars Trilogy back when it was still on TV which was when I was 4 years old.
18:19 there's the thing Scorponok does actually turn into one of Blackout's engines. But knowing that makes you wonder how is Blackout even meant to use his vehicle form as it would be useless to him because he's missing an engine.
@@steliosstanis2125 like what having 2 engines? To be fair I don't know how the Sea stallion works as I know more about cars than aircraft I mean one of the engines could be to power the main rotor and the other engine to operate the tail rotor I don't know, what I do know is if a vehicle is meant to have 2 engines it can't function with one missing. There's an old modified Audi TT I know of for example it's all wheel drive but it has 2 engines which the TT only has one engine in the front powering all 4 wheels, however in this one I'm talking about the 400 horsepower engine drives the front wheels and the back wheels are powered by another 400 horsepower engine in the back, and I don't think it can function with the 2nd engine missing.
My favorite Scorponok is his Beast Wars incarnation! He was so funny and kinda adorable. Too bad he was done so dirty in the very first episode of season 2 of Beast Wars.
I love Energon Scorponok and really wish he appeared in Cybertron as Dark Scorponok-and that a 3rd party company like FansHobby could make an MP version of the design (complete with the leg guns from the show CGI model-and a Dark Scorponok redeco/retool). Though I do also think that the design should have been one size class (or perhaps even two size classes) larger (think Leader or even Supreme rather than Ultra) to better match the intent of the design.
My favorite Scorponok incarnations are the ones from the first two Michael Bay films (the version that introduced me to Scorponok as a character, complete with a badass theme in the first film) and _Rise of the Beasts_ (I recently got the Studio Series figure of _Rise of the Beasts_ Scorponok from my local Walmart).
You know when I was a kid? I love scorpions like they're one of my favorites. When I was a kid, I would go to camping place and in the rocks had like dozens of scorpions and I would Catch them and and release them when we're done with them. They were a lot in Hawaii. Well, I came from and every time I see a transformer scorpion. I always love it
While he may just be an evil robo scorpion, '07 Scorpy is a very effectively communicated alien evil robo scorpion. Agreed on him needing an alt mode, but his scorpion mode is quite nice.
my favorite scorponok designs are the g1 cartoon, beast wars cartoon, tf1 design, the rotf stalker design, the rotb design, the beast weaponizers toy, and the studio series toy
Honestly, energon scorpanok is one if my holy grails since its one of the only transformers i had when i was really young. Looking back, it wasnt that great if a design, but i still want that toy.
My Best Scorponok Design is from TRANSFORMERS: ROBOTS IN DISGUISE and TRANSFORMERS: RISE OF THE BEASTS. I like Scorponok as Large Mechanical Scorpion (24:24) to transform a Monstrous Robot with Scorpion Tail (25:30).
Maybe I'll be unoriginal, but For the next video of this series will be interesting see Dinobot, Blackaracnia or Waspinator I think these 3 was the most iconic and memorable in Beast Wars series, amd even thei others incarnation in others tv show, comics etc are cool (some more, some less)
2007's Blackout does become part of blackout though, he's supposed to be an engine or part of the engine, but I can see why hasbro did not chose to give him that alt mode. It'd be too hard to make him accurate for a smaller scale when packaged with blackout; and probably too boring for kids if released as a single deluxe release
One of the things I really like about Scorponok is that he exists (and can work) in basically every size class (G1 Titan, Beast Wars standard, and the movie's minicon)
2007 scorponok is the best because on cybertron he was always left behind on purpose because he can blend in to the surroundings and he will always kill stragglers off and when he attacks he will be able to quickly hide again basically what I’m trying to say is that he does hit and run tactics
G1 Scorponok for me. I loved the original toy. Good Christmas that one. He was just a superb character in the comics. Had to get the Titan. What a figure! Gotta say, I DO like the RiD version. What a fantastic redesign. Never got the figure, though I do like the Takara Tomy deco.
god i should finally draw the design i've been thinking up for him. basically rotf demolishor's giant excavator mode but it turns into a giant scorpion. it's a transtector for Zarak, and Scorponok is the name for an army of drones he has that turn from robot scorpions into backhoe diggers.
I know it's not Scorponok but I kinda wish Paralon from RID15 would have been included here as a sorta honorable mention since he was a repaint of Scorponok with a different head and when hasbro released a toy for him they gave him a head design based on Beast Wars Scorponok which was actually different from the head he had in the show
My favorite is Earthrise toy (including Black Zarak). I also like G1 toy, G1 animation, G1 Black Zarak, Earthrise animation, Energon G1 reissue, Cybertron, Angry Birds, RiD 2015 animation, and Bayverse deluxe toy.
It just occurred to me that all the Scorponoks in Rise of the Beasts are all different colors like they are a race of Cybertronians all to their own. And they are a terrorcon swarm coming from Unicron to restore him. so in a way it's a nod to the generic troop beast like Terrorcons from Transformers Energon. Was it intentional? probably not but it surprisingly matches up.
Could you make a list for underrated transformers? (unless you already have) Like Reedman, the one made from Microbots in ROTF that remind me of Scraplets.
Beast Wars Scorponok (the toy) was awesome. Show version.. wasn't. Character-wise he was made redundant as soon as Inferno debuted. Which is the portrayal that he should have had from the beginning. The only one "done dirty" in that Season Two death sequence was Terrorsaur. He had _both_ a cool TM toy design and a ton more potential.
For the G1 Scorponok I like to think that he was a War Titan a special War Titan because I like to think that War Titans while powerful enough to destroy a Red Super Giant but they are small. Scorponok and Fortress Maximus are the same size as normal Titans. You see while normal Titans are born War Titans are made But what do you think about my interpretation of Titans and War Titans
Hi Comodin Cam , I like your Scorponok video is very good and interesting . I like the Rise Of Beasts concept art and Beast War Scorponok . But why don't you do the Nemesis Prime or The Fallen video?
So basically this character got smaller since G1. Especially with Beast Wars getting smaller, then Bayformers which made him smol, then ROTB making it bigger but still smaller.
The only thing that bayverse scorponok should've had was not being blackout's partner and instead be a titan sized scorpion that towers over optimus prime just like king scorponok from the bayverse "human alliance" arcade game, and should've had the "GET OVER HERE" attack where he extends his tail out and grabs optimus from the "battle for the matrix" game.
The disrespect on movie skorponok is crazy. Do you guys not think that turning the claws into drills for burrowing were a sick idea for a new take on a scorpion and one that made him as deadly as he was in the desert??
As much as the Built to Rule line sucked, I think the Scorponok toy could've been bumped a tier higher up since there was more effort put in with him than usual.
18:17 actually, it’s confirmed that Scorponok actually does transform into one of Blackouts turbines.its just never explained in the movies cause Michael Bay sucks at writing.
Nah, bro. Ehren Krueger sucks at writing, since he's the guy who wrote those movies up until Last Knight. That was co-written by one of the people behind Batman and Robin.
As much as appreciate G1 scorponok, I like the Bayverse design. I wished he had a character though. BW is my personal favorite when it comes to character. This is kind of a rant buy I hate that he's being reduced as a disposable army they did it in Netflix kingdom and in ROTB. Hopefully in the next adaptation he becomes a singular character
I’m realizing very quickly watching this that Scorpinok hasn’t had many good designs. Beast Wars and G1 were the only clear winners there, which is funny since they’re on opposite ends of the spectrum for what works for him.
I don't get why you dug so deep into the Movie Scorpinoks, down to the unused concept art, and considered a bunch of things to be separate entries from one another, yet you left out IDW Scorpinok. The video description said you covered "ALL" comics designs, but you only covered two comic designs that were in, like, a single panel, and somehow left out Marvel Comics and IDW, two way better known ones.
Scorponok is a very interesting case, he’s either a robot scorpion or a character at times. But I like when he has a personality.
The live action Michael Bay version of him is what introduced me to the character, but I was first introduced to transformers in the Beast Wars Trilogy back when it was still on TV which was when I was 4 years old.
For me ER Scorponock was peak War For Cybertron. I'm a big Zarak fan, so I really enjoyed your list
18:19 there's the thing Scorponok does actually turn into one of Blackout's engines. But knowing that makes you wonder how is Blackout even meant to use his vehicle form as it would be useless to him because he's missing an engine.
it's probably a bit excessive.

That’s the thing, he doesn’t. Thats why Blackout was so late to the final battle. He had to wait to regroup with Scorponok before he could transform
Do transformers even use their engines?
I adore the 2007 Scorponok toy. One of my favorites I’ve ever owned.
My favorite design for the live action movies would have to be his ROTB rendition, but my overall favorite has to be the G1/Earthrise Scorponok design
My favorite Scorponok is his Beast Wars incarnation! He was so funny and kinda adorable. Too bad he was done so dirty in the very first episode of season 2 of Beast Wars.
I personally REALLY love Energon Scorponok. He looked like an actual walking tank with a probably nasty punch.
Oh yeah, absolute UNIT who will mess you up. I also liked the cockpit on the tail.
Personally I like it the best. A triple changer and a better head sculpt in my opinion.
I love Energon Scorponok and really wish he appeared in Cybertron as Dark Scorponok-and that a 3rd party company like FansHobby could make an MP version of the design (complete with the leg guns from the show CGI model-and a Dark Scorponok redeco/retool).

While he may just be an evil robo scorpion, '07 Scorpy is a very effectively communicated alien evil robo scorpion. Agreed on him needing an alt mode, but his scorpion mode is quite nice.
Actually, movie Scorponok DID turn into parts of Blackout's helicopter mode! The "caution" labels are from the helicopter parts.
At 4:50 I like to think that Black Zarak is Zarak's ansister
Me too.
The '07 scorponok was my first interaction with the character. Other than that, I'd only seen him in angry birds before this video.
my favorite scorponok designs are the g1 cartoon, beast wars cartoon, tf1 design, the rotf stalker design, the rotb design, the beast weaponizers toy, and the studio series toy
In defense of the 07 legends class, it has the best robot mode of the 07 design. (If only the stinger was made of sturdier plastic)
It's such a shame we never got the concept robot designs for rotb scorponok in the movie
There's the studio series version
Honestly, energon scorpanok is one if my holy grails since its one of the only transformers i had when i was really young. Looking back, it wasnt that great if a design, but i still want that toy.
Big bias for micheal bay scorpionok cause i remember playing with it in a sandbox in my childhood
I have played the RID game way more than a sane person would, and no where did I see it say that bot was scorponok .
Splendid
My Best Scorponok Design is from TRANSFORMERS: ROBOTS IN DISGUISE and TRANSFORMERS: RISE OF THE BEASTS.
I like Scorponok as Large Mechanical Scorpion (24:24) to transform a Monstrous Robot with Scorpion Tail (25:30).
I take solace in knowing I’m not the only RiD 2015 Decepticon enjoyer, those designs really were what I came for when I watched the show
My introduction to Skorponok (and transformers in general) was Beast Wars. It’s crazy to learn he was part of the OG Transformers series.
The 07 scorponok does transform into a engine for black out
Maybe I'll be unoriginal, but
For the next video of this series will be interesting see Dinobot, Blackaracnia or Waspinator
I think these 3 was the most iconic and memorable in Beast Wars series, amd even thei others incarnation in others tv show, comics etc are cool (some more, some less)
Really it's weird Megatron doesn't give more positivity to skorponok even tho he is his most loyal soldier
My headcanon for Wfc Scorponok is that he had give himself to become living defence system of Darksyde with mass of drones under his control
2007's Blackout does become part of blackout though, he's supposed to be an engine or part of the engine, but I can see why hasbro did not chose to give him that alt mode.

One of the things I really like about Scorponok is that he exists (and can work) in basically every size class (G1 Titan, Beast Wars standard, and the movie's minicon)
I always love how he serves as Blackout’s pet. Really wicked!

Could've brought ultra marcus to this but thats just me
god i should finally draw the design i've been thinking up for him. basically rotf demolishor's giant excavator mode but it turns into a giant scorpion. it's a transtector for Zarak, and Scorponok is the name for an army of drones he has that turn from robot scorpions into backhoe diggers.

My favorite is Earthrise toy (including Black Zarak).
I also like G1 toy, G1 animation, G1 Black Zarak, Earthrise animation, Energon G1 reissue, Cybertron, Angry Birds, RiD 2015 animation, and Bayverse deluxe toy.
Energon scorponok was so rad. Got it as a kid and loved the triple transformation.
07' scorpinok is the engine of blackouts alt mode
It just occurred to me that all the Scorponoks in Rise of the Beasts are all different colors like they are a race of Cybertronians all to their own. And they are a terrorcon swarm coming from Unicron to restore him. so in a way it's a nod to the generic troop beast like Terrorcons from Transformers Energon.

I was hoping for the random screaming noises would be added as one of the tiers
Could you make a list for underrated transformers? (unless you already have) Like Reedman, the one made from Microbots in ROTF that remind me of Scraplets.
16:30 Looks like this’ll be Kamen Rider Scissors’ advent monster replacement
I figure BW Scorponok's Transmetal form would include an army tank mode with his tail as the gun. Just flip his stinger up and blast away.
Can’t believe bro forgot the tactical arena scorponok
Because it’s the exact same as the Earthrise one
@@ComodinCam damn my bad, I thought there’d be a few differences at least
@@ComodinCamis that the same reason why earth wars skorponok was not on this list?
@@Chadderbox171 yes
Hasbro need to make him a main villain again.
i still have the rotf scorponok toy. I hope studio series make one day a deluxe scorponok toy
Vangelus!
man, that g1 toy was something I dreamed of owing
Beast Wars Scorponok (the toy) was awesome. Show version.. wasn't. Character-wise he was made redundant as soon as Inferno debuted. Which is the portrayal that he should have had from the beginning. The only one "done dirty" in that Season Two death sequence was Terrorsaur. He had _both_ a cool TM toy design and a ton more potential.
It seems like Skorponok has the most wildly divergent characrtizations and designs
I like the Beast Wars toy over the animation model for Scorponok.
For the G1 Scorponok I like to think that he was a War Titan a special War Titan because I like to think that War Titans while powerful enough to destroy a Red Super Giant but they are small. Scorponok and Fortress Maximus are the same size as normal Titans. You see while normal Titans are born War Titans are made
But what do you think about my interpretation of Titans and War Titans
Ah yes, the one transformer whose movie design I actually prefer.
1:50 thanks for accepting one of my tiers.
4:22 for me the ramps and play features too admittedly
They went the entire video without mentioning mpreg Scorponok. Crazy.
I remember growing up thinking movie scorpinok was the coolest. Oh how much of a fool I was then. yeeees
I feel one of the tier names should have been called
" Incompetent bug "
10:20 The "City's Scout" name: Scamper! Not Fasttrack!
Awesome Tier List!!!🙌😄
Original Headmaster is the only one e for me.
Can you do Springer next?
12:26 I disagree , I love the Energon version
Re ranking bumblebee all designs please
Hi Comodin Cam , I like your Scorponok video is very good and interesting . I like the Rise Of Beasts concept art and Beast War Scorponok . But why don't you do the Nemesis Prime or The Fallen video?
Thank you very much and because I’ve got a lot on at the minute with other videos planned but I’ll put a pin in it and hopefully get to them soon :)
Tq
Micheal Bay version of Scorponok was when I learned about him, and not gonna lie. I like that one
Here's an idea. scorponok but as a tyranid bio form.
Can you rank the Waspinator designs?
10:21 yep it's Fasttrack.
Mama Mia he is a big guy
Finally!!! I been commenting for him to do this for so long lol
So basically this character got smaller since G1. Especially with Beast Wars getting smaller, then Bayformers which made him smol, then ROTB making it bigger but still smaller.
Igor tierlist soon hopefully 🙏
This is a hot take but I like energon scorponok of him once being created by alpha Q and how they want scorponok back becasue they miss him
The only thing that bayverse scorponok should've had was not being blackout's partner and instead be a titan sized scorpion that towers over optimus prime just like king scorponok from the bayverse "human alliance" arcade game, and should've had the "GET OVER HERE" attack where he extends his tail out and grabs optimus from the "battle for the matrix" game.
I want Warpath, that guy don’t get love enough. KABLAM!!
The disrespect on movie skorponok is crazy. Do you guys not think that turning the claws into drills for burrowing were a sick idea for a new take on a scorpion and one that made him as deadly as he was in the desert??
The thing that fucks with me is is bayverse scorponok supposed to be the G1 character or the beast wars character
Doesn’t really fit either
Can you rank Cheetor next?
You forgot to put idw design
As much as the Built to Rule line sucked, I think the Scorponok toy could've been bumped a tier higher up since there was more effort put in with him than usual.
I still have the mcdonald's one on my shelf.
I think a better name would be Scorpionox
18:17 actually, it’s confirmed that Scorponok actually does transform into one of Blackouts turbines.its just never explained in the movies cause Michael Bay sucks at writing.
Nah, bro. Ehren Krueger sucks at writing, since he's the guy who wrote those movies up until Last Knight. That was co-written by one of the people behind Batman and Robin.
As much as appreciate G1 scorponok, I like the Bayverse design. I wished he had a character though.
BW is my personal favorite when it comes to character.
This is kind of a rant buy I hate that he's being reduced as a disposable army they did it in Netflix kingdom and in ROTB. Hopefully in the next adaptation he becomes a singular character
Me personally I don't care I like them all but it's your opinion I'm have nothing against your opinion. You do you
Today's my 23rd birthday
Happy birthday.
Happy birthday
Thanks
🎉
oh, happy birthday
2007 scorponok ruin walking on sand for 7 year old me
Do ever Beast wars Dinobot ranking
The Angry Birds one is Scorpignok.
16:35 that is just a generic enemy
Movie scorponok is blackouts engine
⚧️ TransMetal 🏳️⚧️ : I love it 💗
I’m realizing very quickly watching this that Scorpinok hasn’t had many good designs. Beast Wars and G1 were the only clear winners there, which is funny since they’re on opposite ends of the spectrum for what works for him.
Waspinator?
Nice
Scorponok variant
I have a idea transformers the fallen designs worst to best
Scorpion
Make him a car for no reason.
2:37 what the fuck is this clip?! XD
