Honestly I think its them cutting costs and not realizing the inaccuracy. I also think they feel its minor gripes that is worth overlooking. And honestly they are kind ofsmall gripes except for the size accuracy for me. But since they love to reuse parts constantly to cut costs, Id imagine that was definitely part of it. Altho Scorpion is technically a new mold so its kind of weird they went with such a small buck for him. I think they focused too much on the tail and didnt think a larger scale figure would work in the packaging without being a baf.

He was one of my prized figs for a long time. I was hoping Hasbro would make a better rendition to dethrone it but I really dont like their new one. Not only because I dont like the shiny metal masked version but his size is too small and I dont know why they used different plastics for his ab and upper thigh regions. I remember seeing it when they first showed it at like SDCC or wherever and noticed it hoping that its just in the proto and wont transfer to the final release, which it did.

This is my favorite figure in the wave, just for that bendy-wire tail! Please give us bendy-wire tentacles for Doc Ock, Hasbro!

Wouldn't surprise me if it turned out that the first time he's shown without the mouth covered, is because of amistake by whatever artist/colorist. Frankly I prefer the covered lower half of the mask version as its closest to the classic look. I mean, so many costumes at the time and over the years went the traditional way....just thought it was quirky they took this one. But again, there's a figure out there that does have it with the mouth exposed.

The mask isnt just as his first appearence.. it shows up far more often than the maskless (which blows my mind as Im much more used to the maskless version and is my preferred version of him).

I actually never knew that. I was also used to the mask that had his mouth showing. But ya know as his first appearance instead of his mouth not showing but still had a slit where you can see if he's talking, it should've been just a seamless mask. That would've been so cool.
2 hours ago, newcollector24680 said:I get that this mask actually existedbut it doesn't make sense since this old 60s mask was only on the costume with thestinger-less tail. The new Hasbro figure has a stinger on the tail but has the wrong mask. Thecostume they made with the stingeris supposed to have an open-mouth mask. Or if they wanted to make the classic Scorpion then they should've given us a stinger-less tail, which would be lame.
