    Alt mode on this guy is totally cool with a nice transformation that's average in terms of complexity.

    Bot mode leaves something to be desired though... his hips are quite wide (relative to his shoulders) and the design of his hands/forearms just plain suck due to the propellers making them slightly offset.

    He's got good articulation and displays well in various action poses, however the highlight is the alt mode.

    7.5/10

    I'm really just here for the free food and open bar.

    So did I... until I got him. It's actually not that great a toy... cool alt mode and that's about it - it's fairly average to above average at best.

    I must say it's the interesting/unique alt mode that appeals to me the most about this toy.

    There's three votes but only one owner reviewing this toy. The people who like the toy could you tell us why? I just got the figure but can't decide if I should open it or keep it to sell on locally.

    A G1 tribute to Highbrow would be appreciated, he was the standout character in Headmasters #1 so I've always wanted a toy of him.
