• Scourge (Leader Class, 2023)
  • Movie: Rise of the Beasts
  • Hasbro ID number: 101
  • Accessories: blade weapon, detachable blaster and claw

• Known designers: Sam Smith (Hasbro), Takashi Kunihiro (TakaraTomy)

Released as part of the eleventh wave of Studio Series Leader Class figures, Scourge transforms into a frightening truck in 31 steps. Scourge is compatible with the Core Class Freezer figure as a blaster for his hand and in his truck bed.

Like the majority of Studio Series figures from Rise of the Beasts, Scourge is based on early concept art, evident by his neck, his smokestacks being visible in robot mode, and the inaccurate chest section/truck grill.

Hasbro revealed the figure on January 30, 2023.

Notes

Wednesday Addams called dibs when she’s ready for her first car.

• Scourge's altmode was first revealed on Steven Caple Jr.'s Instagram account, along with the other two Terrorcons.
• Scourge's design as a large evil semi-truck evokes his Robots in Disguise incarnation. It's also worth noting that this universe's Megatron also adopted a similarly Mad Max-esque truck form during the events of Dark of the Moon.
• Scourge's grill is decorated with insignia "trophies" taken from his slain enemies. Looking closely, one can identify Autobot, Decepticon, Maximal, Mercenary and Wrecker (specifically the two-hammer symbol used in the 2019 IDW design) insignias.
