Cerebros needs a little makeup.

One of my favorite things from the Japanese Headmasters series is the fact that "Fortress" (aka Cerebros), is kind of impractical as a Transformer being that he's this massive space travelling base/city/robot.
So much of Fortress' time is just spent hanging out in head mode on the bridge of his body's space ship mode.
I just like it. It is utterly absurd.
Plus, I love the fact that everybody just refers to him as "Commander" too.
Cerebros is kind of boring. His "head" is just too dark. Maybe if the face was lighter.
You know what would have been cool? If it had been painted right.
It more or less is a mini version of Fortress Maximus' full head, which Cerebros of course becomes.
The lack of a decent color scheme ruins it.

So, Fortress Maximus' head, becomes Cerebros - then Cerebros' head becomes Spike, right?
Cool. Can you show us a pic of Spike?
I don't own any headmasters, nor targetmasters ... may have to remedy that soon.
Here's one I took a few days ago. (Flickr link.)
I only had Apeface with his dual head... Now ebayed and got reasonable money for him.
One Headmaster was enough...
M.
i thought cerebros had a mouth plate. damn you, marvel!
Somewhere on the net is a custom of this guy where these very same problems have been remedied. And Cerebros looks a great deal better with (a) a faceplate, (b) a primarily dark-green theme and (c) much-improved articulation. I'll post it if I can find it.
I was more partial to his need to "calibrate his amazing brain" in order to pull the sword out of his dashboard. Dang, I needs both Master Swords!
(I know it is incredibly stupid-especially dubbed, but I love Headmasters far more than G1 season 3, Masterforce or Victory. I was overjoyed when they re-released Soundblaster and Twincast.)
Um... hello!?!?
His name is New Soundwave! Galvatron says so!
Of course. I meant New Soundwave, and Blaster who was Billy who is Blaster.
S'ok. I forgive you.
