Scorn is a Dinobot from the Age of Extinction portion of the live-action film series continuity family.
Illusion never changed into something real.

Scorn is what happens when you combine a destructive war machine with a predator. Nothing else so much as a destroyer on two legs, he's strong and massive. Not only capable of using his Spinosaurus alternate mode in combat, Scorn is also a demolitions specialist and wields the Scrapmaker Sword in 'bot mode. His massive size makes him almost impossible to bring down. <ref>http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/en_US/characters.cfm?bot=Scorn</ref>

He also goes by the nickname Spike.

Back Stab you say?

Scorn was trapped aboard Lockdown's vessel until Optimus Prime and the Autobots stole the section of the ship he was imprisoned on, though Optimus did not reveal the Dinobots' presence to his men until the time came for reinforcements. Optimus offered an ultimatum: stand with the Autobots against their mysterious Creators and Galvatron's Decepticons, or face death at his hands. Grimlock submitted to his command when beaten in single combat by the Autobot leader, there by earning his respect, and Scorn and the other Dinobots followed suit. Scorn allowed Crosshairs to ride him into the Hong Kong battle, where Scorn's massive size and lethal sail-spikes proved a great asset in turning the tide. Scorn accompanied the group to try to escort the Seed to safety, but Lockdown returned and turned his tractor beam on them. Scorn would've been recaptured by the bounty hunter had Optimus not destroyed the tractor beam. Scorn helped defend the Seed on a bridge with the other Autobots and Dinobots until Optimus was able to defeat Lockdown. The battle over, Optimus gave the Dinobots their freedom, and Scorn parted with Crosshairs on good terms, who even gave him a new nickname, "Spike".Age of Extinction

Toys

Age of Extinction

Robots in Disguise

When you see it.
  • Scorn (Power Battler, 2014)
    • Japanese ID number: LA10
Scorn features a basic transformation from a mechanical Spinosaurus into a robot. Squeezing his legs together in robot mode rotates the center of his torso, whipping his tail forward and giving him a different headsculpt.
The Takara Lost Age version of the toy, sold as Battle Attack Scorn, features different paint applications, making his beast mode mainly silver.

Generations

You're a little late, I'm already Scorn.
  • Scorn (Deluxe Class, 2014)
    • Series: M4: #004
    • Japanese ID number: AD05
    • Accessories: Sword
Part of the first wave of Age of Extinction-themed Generations Deluxe class toys, Scorn transforms from a robot into a red Spinosaurus (albeit with a single sail, seemingly indicating the triple-sailed design was a late change to the movie character). His sword can be stored inside his tail, but he can only hold it in his right hand in robot mode, as his left arm converts from his tail into a lance. Scorn's transformation scheme is extremely familiar, yesss.


  • Black Knight Scorn (Deluxe, August 2014)
    • Accessories: Sword
A redeco of Generations Scorn, this time in a predominantly black colour scheme with orange highlights, presumably representative of the mainly dark gray appearance of the Dinobots in the movie. Black Knight Scorn is a Takara exclusive to Edion and Bic Camera.

Notes

  • Scorn is by far the largest Dinobot appearing in the film, given his status as a Spinosaurus, which is infamous (thanks to Jurassic Park III) for being a much larger predator than Tyrannosaurus rex. Scorn seems to take the role of being the largest Dinobot from Sludge, who traditionally fits the bill in most incarnations of the Dinobots.
  • Incidentally, a little more than two months after Age of Extinction hit the theater, additional fossils of Spinosaurus was unveiled to the public. The new reconstruction depicts an animal with an even larger dorsal sail and incredibly short hindlegs, forcing it to walk on all fours. This makes Scorn's alternate mode an outdated depiction of Spinosaurus, which is a pity, considering that he was the closest to being the most scientifically accurate dinobot to appear in the movie before this revelation.
