When was Scorpion on Masters of Evil? i always thought he would be on Synister Sindicate because he always fought with spiderman?

Remember that Team abilities do not necessarily reflect Team affliations. Like Spiral was never really a minion of Doom.
I was hoping he was SS because I think he would benefit greatly from the team ability.
I completely feel the same. I really hope that they make Scorpion into an LE. Sinister Syndicate, maybe a click or two of super strength (he actually is stronger than spiderman) and maybe a little more consistent damage ( I don't think he should drop below 2 damage) Mostly though, I just want him to be part of the Sinister Syndicate:(
Anyway thats my $0.02
that is ok...i am going to use him as SS instead of MOE.

Scorpion was a 1 time MoE. He never joined the Syndicate. Though Kingpin was neve a part of the actual sinister syndicate the mob is referred to as the Synister Syndicate.
As far as teams and who gets them most are pretty accurate and some are stretces like the syndicate is actually a merger of the Sinister Syndicate and the Sinister Six.
Brotherhood of Evil Mutants is actually Brotherhood, Freedom Force and some assorted mutant or x-men enemies who fall under the umbrella of Magnetos minions. Personally I think Sabrettoth should have gotten MoD (I'll explain in a second)
Minions of Doom is more or less truly Minions of Doom or simply Evil wildcards. I mean Taskmaster is a mercenary ... he'll work for anyone so I think the wildcard fits much better then no affiliation. Spiral has flipped back and fought from MoJo's influence and helped the X-men/Longshot often enough she should have the wildcard
Spiderman team is a big question mark in my head. I mean it's founder and symbol barely gets it on his fig. And the people who get it with the exception of Black Cat and Daredevil have no strong affiliation to him. I mean Clint Barton? Rita Demara? But Rita did flip from evil to join the Guardians of the Galaxy and Hawkeye switch to the Thunderbolts a team viewed as villians. So maybe it's the good version of the MoD wildcard potential of a character. Dr. Strange should have gotten this at least at one point.

I'm with Kang. I consider this Scorpion to be the same as the Pyro that was mis-tagged with MOE.

my point is he was not mistagged. You can actually look up masters of evil fan pages to see the incarnations of the team with one that included Scorpion.
I think an LE with syndicate would be cool though as it would satisfy everyone. Probably not though as it seems you cant please everyone.
ontapmedia is correct. Scorpion served in Egghead's MOE team in the early 80s. This was the team that led to Hank Pym's retirement from active crimefighting for several years. It was a great storyline!

the Scorpion..
was created for the purpose of battling Spiderman (and he fought in the Sinister Six), so if 1 fig should have gotten SS it's Scorpion !

Scorpion should be SS. Of course they did Scorpion pretty wrong in my opinion. THough he was part of MOE so he does deserve the MOE.

What about the BEETLE. Of all the spiderman's villians I want him more then anything. In fact he's my #1 figure I want.
