![]() His right arm has the dinosaur head attached, and can be used in a few ways. His hips are ball jointed, and having both thigh swivels and double jointed knees (due to transformation) makes him more than adequate. His arms are entirely on a set of swivels, but they're very effective. His head is a little limited despite being ball jointed, because it is almost always angled while turning. The articulation is pretty decent on Scorn, and he has everything he needs to be a fun toy. It does help bulk him out a little bit more to differentiate his robot and dinosaur mode. You're supposed to actually flare out his lower legs in robot mode, but I often tend to forget to do it. Although because he's much smaller and slender, it makes him look like a real scrappy little fighter. It's a unified look that the Dinobots all share and really strengthens them as a coherent group of Transformers.īetween the one dinosaur head for an arm, and a tail for the other Scorn greatly resembles Beast Wars Megatron in a pretty neat way. The headsculpt in particular is very medieval in its design and looks great. The robot mode sculpt on Scorn has an interesting knight theme to it, and I absolutely love it. It reminds me a whole bunch of how the original Beast Wars Megatron turned out, especially with how the robot mode turns out. Transformation on Scorn is pretty simple, but fun. That combined with a tilting head and opening jaw means this guy is pretty expressive despite his small size. The head articulation is really awesome, with a swivel at the bottom of the neck, along with another swivel at the top of the neck. The addition of ball jointed tiny arms make him very emotive and also kind of adorable. The legs are ball jointed and the double jointed knees can lend well to some varied poses. The articulation in Dinobot mode is pretty good. Now, I know nothing about dinosaurs and about how accurate they look, but this thing looks pretty accurate to me alright. It makes these Dinobots look intimidating and impressive in their sculpt. Scorn is a bright red spinosaurus covered in loads of spiky bits and who generally looks like he's made of knives and shrapnel. The movie toys are actually dated for street release on May 17, but a few stores have gone ahead and put them out a little early, which is how I managed to get a hold of today's review topic: Scorn. After just a couple of still images, I made a complete 180 turn from being indifferent to very much excited about the new upcoming toys. They almost looked like they belonged in their own cartoon property instead of the movie. ![]() The first look at the various Dinobots other than Grimlock were a rainbow explosion of colors and delightfully characterful sculpts. I expected near identical looking grey and metallic Transformers that would just be pretty standard and skippable.Īnd man have I never been happier to be wrong. With the inclusion of the Dinobots this time for Age of Extinction I initially was pretty unexcited by the news. ![]() Well it's that exciting time again! With a new Transformers movie coming out this summer it's only natural for new toys to show up as well. ![]()
