    My 2nd Entry in Sector70.com's Headmaster contest is none other than Highbrow.

    I used an Animate leader megs for the body and a minicon/neoshifter mini for Gort.

    I went with this color scheme after looking at tons of reference material and didn't find many pics of him as gray. Most were white , only the toy is definitively gray.

    Great work. The white in lieu of grey was a good pick in my opinion. Gort looks pretty kick-ass, too.

    Amazing I love it!! I have been thinking these past few days after seeing a lot of headmasters on how to make Highbrow from Animated Megs and I see this. I really like how you did yours. I wish there was a way to change meg's phrases so he says like "Head On" when transformed. But again I love how yours turned out.

    The Mold suits the character fairly well, but the head seems to be just a bit to big for the body.

    so obvious it's genius. gort's awesome toby. the figure is too "animated" for my taste but this is definitely highbrow. the paint's right on. great job with this guy.
