At the 2010 Cybertron Con in Shanghai, China, photos of upcoming figures set for release in Spring 2011 were unveiled. ![]() The first wave of figures was released in July 2010. These Deluxe Class figures stand at about 5.5 to 6 inches tall and feature intermediate to moderate transformation levels. The figures consist of new molds as well as redecos of ones originally used in the Classics and Universe lines. ![]() Much like the preceding Universe toy line, Generations covers different eras of Transformers here, the toys are based upon characters from Generation 1 and the video game Transformers: War for Cybertron, as well as the Transformers comics by IDW Publishing. Transformers: Generations is a 2010 toy line by Hasbro. This was meant as an oblique reference to Jared Wade's father-in-law, who flew a P-38 Lightning, and whose callsign had something to do with pretzels and/or spiders.Generations Deluxe Cybertronian Optimus Prime Bill Rawley explained at BotCon 2010 that Highbrow's tailfin symbol is a pretzel with tarantula legs.More information on Highbrow at TFU.info.This mold, with the alternate head, was redecoed to make Generations Powerdive, and was also retooled into Timelines Obsidian. Strangely, he does not have a faction symbol in either mode, something of a rarity among modern Transformers. His robot-to-vehicle instructions completely forget the "fold cockpit back into place" step (which would go between steps 14 and 15), but fortunately it's pretty obvious. With the cockpit shell halves splitting open and forming the wings, at the same time revealing the thruster attached underneath the "main" cockpit body, which is then flipped down, the cockpit kibble on his back actually turns into a jet-pack. This allows one to see Highbrow's eyes when the mask is down, as lowering the mask reveals much more of the clear plastic on the back of his head, allowing the light-piping to shine through more. In robot mode, he features a flip-down battle mask, is armed with two non-firing gatling guns which can mount on his hip guards/small front wings via 5 mm post, and the propellers on his forearms can be swung down to function as "spinning blade weapons." Highbrow's battle mask resembles the goggles and headgear of a WWII American fighter pilot, and the lenses of the goggles are made of a clear plastic. Hunt for the Decepticons Highbrow transforms into a World War II-style fighter reminiscent of the Lockheed P-38 Lightning, and features propellers which are geared to spin if you press the engines down.
