>>10365274Scorpion mode. Not exactly the most complex transformation in the world, but it does the job (though I wish the scorpion legs could fan out a bit more, but whatever). While the Skorponok version of thsi mold has a rather dinky looking tail barb, Black Zarak's 6-piece Tyrant Spear is designed to break up and attach to make it bigger - the handle separates into two pieces and clips on either side (with the lower hald leaving hte spike on the bottom attached), while the two segments that make up the spearhead are supposed to attach to the top of the tail barb; unfortunately, this also makes the barb heavier, causing it to droop pretty badly (at least, on my copy). As a result, I only used the very top piece of the spear for his barb and left the second bit still attached to the upepr half of his spear handle, then mounted the tip to the underside of the barb instead to keep the tip from swinging all the way down.
From this angle, you can see Scorponok's black collar piece attached here; the instructions say it isn't actually needed on the Black Zarak version (and can possibly chip the paint on his head), but I left it on here for completion's sake; in the future, I'll keep it in his box. Oh, and you can also see Zarak himself here - there's a tiny peg in the middle of BZ's robot chest/scorpion back that his tiny headmaster form can stand on; as mentioned in the second post, the big robot/scorpion head can attach to the body even without Zarak plugged into it, and the gold chest panel opens up to reveal a cockpit for the little guy to ride around in instead.
