Comparison pic for reference taken from here:
Hasbro's Cerebros head is based on the model used in the G1 comics and cartoon whereas Takara TOMY's Fortress head is based on the more G1 toy-accurate model used in the G1 anime and manga. I'm glad that Hasbro went with the comic/cartoon accurate head, as it makes it more distinct from my G1 Fortress Maximus toys and also gives me something that's accurate to the media that I grew up with in Australia.
Thanks Goki +1 for the Hasbro version.

I wonder if there will be an option for those of us that want a G1 Season 4 head for Cerebros instead of a Headmasters head? They could include the Hasbro head with a smaller TF.
I have a list of all G1 characters that have been released in CHUG form. You can find it here. Please feel free to let me know if I got anything wrong so I can fix it.
I wonder why hasbro always messes up everything.
The Takara version look 100x better. More true to the original.
