@BLT Again, the concept is the same, but the rest isn't. Their markings are ultimately different, the bone manes are different shape and defy what we've seen in Grimm so far (Grimm gain extra armor when they age, they don't lose it) and their bodies are different when you look closely at them. And again, unless Salem meddled into all of this like she did with the Beringels, you're assuming that somehow a Scorpion's stinger evolves into a snake's head. And considering the snake's head can move and attack on its own, I'm pretty sure it would therefore have some degree of indepedent thought from the Sphinx's main body, as is often the case with creatures like this in traditional mythologies.
