What reviewers are saying

"Scorpio is probably the least anticipated set of the Summer wave, but at the same time it is also the most interesting. Instead of being a Titan or a Vehicled-Matoran, Scorpio is built like the smaller $13 villains, but …"

"it is a cool set I think uh for a good guy or a bad guy I think that this is a good combination of different textur and types of Parts"

JANG's LEGO Reviews

Ecosystem

Fire Lord — Reviewer is more pleased with Scorpio than Fire Lord despite fair structural differences

Rocka XL — Rocka XL costs slightly more and offers specialized/larger bones and shells, special pieces, pretty colors and massive weapon arsenals; Scorpio better for lime pieces, black size 4 shells, and standard bones

Nui-Jaga (2001 BIONICLE) — Scorpio has at least 37 articulation points, clear over twice the amount of both Nui-Jaga combined

Jetbug — Scorpio uses the exact same stinger shooter as Jetbug, though it's a bit big

Minifigures & Standout Parts

Standout parts (per reviewers)

Lime-recolored wasp head (eyeholeless)
New recolored piece; one of four pieces exclusive in color to this set. The reviewer notes it looks better in lime due to darker shadows compared to yellow plastic.
New Black Shield Shell
New mold variant unique to this set
Printed armor on Size 6 shell (similar to Waspix bug printed)
Fewer printed pieces than Fire Lord (1 vs 4) but still present; features silver detail by rod holes matching the headpiece
Fire Lord-sized torso piece in Black
Also included in Rocka XL; useful for creating larger Heroes/Villain MOCs of any color
Lime Size 5 Shell (3 pieces) and Lime armour plating pieces (6 pieces)
Multiple pieces in the same color useful for Lime titan MOCs, though reviewer notes Black and Gunmetal alternatives will be more useful due to less specific colors
Head sculpt (Scorpio head)
Very nice sculpt with extensive detail and precision, though resembles a wasp's head. Unique lime-green coloration compared to Waspix's head.
