Explanation of the conversion: This conversion is based on a
combination of Galaxy Force Flame Convoy and Cybertron Scourge IV. I
used highest of either's Tech Specs and watched the television series
to add details.
History: Scourge is the brutal and awesomely powerful ruler of
Animatros, the Jungle Planet. He views any display of kindness,
compassion or generosity as weakness, and he hates weakness. Cold,
distant, and prone to violent rage against those he views as lesser
creatures, he holds most of the Jungle Planet firmly in his transmetal
claw. Those defying him are likely to experience the searing heat of
his stellar plasma breath, or the bite of his axe as their final
sensation before their spark is extinguished. Overhaul, Snarl IV, and
the Jungle Planet rebels will find him to be the most powerful foe they
have ever faced.
Trivia: Scourge IV shouldn't be confused with the original Scourge, a
Decepticon who turned into a hover jet, or the second Scourge, a
Predacon who turned into a locust, or the third Scourge, a Decepticon
who turned into a semi-truck. In Japan there was a limited edition
recolor of Flame Convoy which was colored to resemble the Generation
One Autobot Sky Lynx.
Powers: Scourge IV is large, tough and very brave. He can run at over
110 mph. In robot mode he carries a powerful battle axe. He can become
a transmetal dragon. In either form he can breath a lethal cloud plasma
fire called his Death Flame.
Weaknesses: Scourge IV has few weaknesses, but is sometimes over
confident, believing in his might over all else. He follows a code of
honor, stressing survival of the fittest. He will only submit to
another's wishes if they can stand up to him in combat. He cannot fly,
but he has exceptional leaping ability.
