- Hasbro ID number: 115

- Part of the twenty-seventh wave of Studio Series Deluxe Class figures, Double Punch is a redeco of Scorponok in a more screen-accurate red and dark gray color scheme, transforming from a mechanical scorpion into a robot based on an unused CG model. His tail can be detached to use as a whip-like weapon, pegging inside either forearm with the robot hands resting in the gap, making the weapon look integrated into the arm. His backdrop depicts the volcanic final battle.
- In beast mode, the gold paint on his chest can get scratched from contact with the ground.
- Double Punch's box uses the original Beast Wars Predacon insignia, while the toy itself correctly features the Rise of the Beasts version.
