SCORN DINOBOT MOVIE
I don’t think he does anything of note other than trampling generic Decepticons but by virtue of owning his toy before watching the movie 99% of the time when the Dinobots were on screen my attention was focused on Scorn. Scorn was awesome in the movie, by the way. So when I finally did buy Scorn, I fully expected him not to show up in the movie… but lo and behold, he did! And, despite my fears that the Dinobots wouldn’t even transform, they do! After all, Hasbro pulled that bullshit move with Beast Hunters on us where half the toyline is made up of dragons but only Predaking was really featured in the show. Back then I didn’t know if Scorn was even going to be in the movie, or if any other Dinobot other than Grimlock would even show up.
Who wouldn’t be? So the very welcome news that the toyline would feature more than one Dinobot was an extremely welcome one. Now I was a massive dinosaur geek as a kid. (The fact that he’s a red dinosaur that transforms just like BW Megatron is a huge personal sentimental reason for me because the obscure T-Wrecks was my first-ever Transformer before I even knew what Transformers are.) And Warcry did say that he’s an awesome toy, so I bought him on sight.
So a couple of weeks before the movie Warcry sent me a private message showing off his brand new Scorn, who is a bright red Dinobot that transforms into a Spinosaurus and has the same transformation scheme as Beast Wars Megatron. This included toyline news, which meant I knew absolutely jack shit about what the toys would look like. Other than that one trailer that showed Grimlock, I had absolutely no idea what’s going to happen in the movie, or who will show up in it. But with Age of Extinction, I placed myself on a self-inflicted embargo from all movie-related news, and that included toy news as well. Despite their many, many faults, my enthusiasm for the Bay movies has never been in question.
